Tim Spector's visit to the brewery

We had a great time showing Tim Spector the inner workings of the MOMO brewery.

Tim is one of the top 100 most cited scientists in the world and is the scientific co-founder of Zoe, which is running the world's largest nutrition science study helping people to take back control of their health.

“I had a lot of fun visiting the MOMO Kombucha brewery in New Covent Garden Market, understanding how it is made and the differences between real kombucha and what you buy in the supermarkets.”

Tim talks a lot about the importance of the gut microbiome, the community of microbes in our intestines, on our overall health and wellness.

Whilst individually these microbes are tiny, when taken as a whole they weigh as much as our brain.

Research shows that consuming fermented foods can increase microbiome diversity and decrease markers of inflammation.

Remember, not all kombucha is created equal.

Most kombuchas you'll find in shops have either been pasteurised, super fine filtered or brewed from concentrate. That means that little to no live cultures remain in the final brew, and that kombucha you bought is doing diddly squat for your gut health.

MOMO is quite unique among kombuchas: raw and completely unfiltered. That means, in the words of Tim, its full of "super microbes" that are vital for your microbiome.
