PureHMO Human Milk Oligosaccharide
HMOs are the most advanced class of prebiotics, originally found in human milk but now bio-identical and produced for adults. PureHMO is exceptionally targeted, feeding beneficial Bifidobacteria and supporting the gut barrier while inhibiting pathogens, making it superior for immune-gut health.
Ingredients & Purity
Contains 2'-Fucosyllactose (2'-FL), the most abundant HMO. Produced through fermentation to be bio-identical to the version found in human milk.
Scientific Evidence
2'-FL has been the subject of numerous clinical trials regarding immune regulation and gut barrier function. It is considered the 'gold standard' for infant gut development and is now proven effective in adults.
Brand Transparency
Layer Origin provides detailed COAs upon request and focuses exclusively on HMO research, showing a high level of specialization.
Value Assessment
While more expensive than generic fiber, the specificity of the 2'-FL molecule provides a therapeutic benefit that cheaper fibers cannot match.
Why Not Alternatives?
Most prebiotics are plant-based starches that feed a wide range of bacteria, including 'bad' ones. HMOs are highly selective and are the only prebiotic class proven to directly support the intestinal mucosal barrier (mucin layer).
