Podcast Episode 181: The Power of HMOs

When I first heard about how powerful HMOs were, I went looking for them. Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are specific carbohydrates, and essentially a super prebiotic occurring naturally in mother’s milk. It helps build the all-important Bifidobacterium in the gut that has a myriad of health benefits all the while feeding other species of bacteria in your gut to promote a diverse and strong microbiome. I found HMOs at Layer Origin and was pretty impressed but after I tried them I was convinced. Not too long after that, I was contacted by Beau from Layer Origin who is on this podcast. It's a leading-edge conversation and I'm excited to share it with you.

So interesting .. a suggestion for you. let the guest talk more ..

[@1957712]

Please let the guest talk more You're wealth of information Donna and I listen to all your videos but I really enjoy hearing other people's points of view

Bovine milk has this HMO also. But dont assume commercial dairy you are buying at your market does. The bovine milk with HMO is new milk and collustrum. I have access to raw milk and collustrum because I own shares at a small raw dairy close to me.

[@janamoran189]

Nice and I will also soon 🙂☺ !!

[@LayerOriginNutrition]

The HMO in bovine milk is materially different from that in human milk actually.

[@tvmcrusher]

Besides the clear difference in structure between Bovine MO and HMO, there is a big difference in amount: Human milk contains 5-20 g/L of oligosaccharides. Bovine milk only has 30-60 mg/L of oligosaccharides, a mere pittance in comparison. The next best thing after human milk would be goat colostrum at 200 to 650 mg/L.

I knew there was a good reason why I didn't peel my apples before I ate them!

[@NintCondition]

I only wish there were links for the products

[@cherryhassett2730]

Your interviews are interesting but you need to let your guests speak more..we want to hear the information they have to bring forth . ..PLEASE

[@eileenglynn2698]

Very informative. I will pass this on to my health expert sisters who make their own kumbacha, etc.

How long does the excess gas take to settle after taking HMO’s? I started taking them and on about day 5 I had ALOT of gas. Had this for a few days then had to stop taking them. I have gone back on a lower dose now, just started today but wondered if there if there is a rough time scale for how long the gas should last. Thanks

[@tvmcrusher]

Did you stop producing gas eventually? Or does flatulence reign supreme still?

[@POS3278]

What about FODMAP with apple peel? Should someone take an enzyme supplement specifically for breaking down apple peel?

[@swim610]

I love this woman. I want to be friends!

[@josieb3238]

Can you make yogurt with hmo powder? Would that work?

[@TXDHC]

I just sprinkle it on my yogurt.

[@tvmcrusher]

I am currently in the process of testing this, tomorrow I will taste my first batch of L. Reuteri cultured dairy made with goat colostrum and 2'FL, the most common HMO added before the ferment. If it is successful I will use the SuperHMO powder together with the goat colostrum for the next batch which contains 2'FL, LNT, LNnT, 6'SL and 3'SL, 5 different HMOs

LOVE 💘 your name ❤ we also named our second son 💙 Beau !!

[@LayerOriginNutrition]

Thanks!

[@cheesecakefan4880]

@@LayerOriginNutrition Where do you source your HMO from? I realize it comes from breast milk but whose breastmilk are you using and how much of it do you source for this?

[@LayerOriginNutrition]

@@cheesecakefan4880 It does not come from breast milk. Our HMO is bio-identical to the HMO in breast milk and is created via a complex fermentation and precise purification process.

[@TheDanielduong]

Is baby formula fortified with HMOs safe for adult consumption?

[@emilybacon11]

Do you only get HMO in human mother's breast milk or is it present in animal milks like cows or goats milk?
