Krystyna Houser Revolutionized the Elemental Diet with mBIOTA’s Proprietary Formula

 

Krystyna Houser struggled with gastrointestinal disorders, including Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), and found that traditional elemental diets were effective but nearly impossible to consume due to their unpleasant taste. Determined to create a better solution, she founded mBIOTA Labs and worked with experts from Cedars-Sinai to develop a proprietary formula that made the elemental diet more palatable.

The Problem with Traditional Elemental Diets

Elemental diets are designed to provide essential nutrients in their simplest form, allowing the digestive system to rest and heal. However, they have historically been difficult to consume due to the strong, unappealing taste of amino acids. This led to low adherence rates among patients, limiting the diet’s effectiveness.

Krystyna Houser’s Personal Journey

After experiencing severe digestive issues, Houser turned to an elemental diet but found it unbearable. Recognizing the need for improvement, she sought out leading GI researchers and spent nearly eight years perfecting a new formula that addressed the taste barrier without compromising nutritional value.

The Birth of mBIOTA’s Proprietary Formula

Houser collaborated with Dr. Mark Pimentel and Dr. Ali Rezaie from Cedars-Sinai to create mBIOTA Elemental™, using advanced taste-masking technology. Their innovation allowed the essential amino acids to remain effective while significantly improving palatability.

Clinical Trials and Success Rates

mBIOTA Elemental™ underwent clinical testing at Cedars-Sinai, showing impressive results:

  • 100% of SIBO-only patients saw eradication based on normalized breath tests within two weeks.
  • 83% of patients with both SIBO and Intestinal Methanogen Overgrowth (IMO) experienced eradication.

Why mBIOTA Elemental™ Stands Out

Unlike traditional formulas, mBIOTA Elemental™ is designed for better adherence while maintaining its core function. It is:

  • Nutritionally Complete – Provides all essential nutrients for gut healing.
  • Dietary Friendly – Free from artificial sweeteners, gluten, lactose, soy, and animal products.

Transforming GI Health for the Future

Krystyna Houser’s innovation has reshaped the elemental diet landscape, making it easier for patients to follow their prescribed treatment plans. With mBIOTA’s success, the future of GI health looks more promising than ever.
