Products made from knotted wrack for healthy gut flora

Why regular supplements don't do the same thing

More and more people are realising that our bodies need help to function optimally. The extent to which this is necessary varies from person to person and is strongly related to lifestyle and diet. Our intestines extract nutrients from what we eat, but this often does not work properly because they are contaminated.
When things go wrong in the intestines, complaints such as smelly wind, abdominal cramps or IBS naturally follow.
Intestinal bacteria suffer from poor nutrition, stress and even the quality of drinking water.

That is why there is a growing need for a product that really works. Producing a 100% organic dietary supplement that is truly effective proved to be a challenge for many years. Divinita™ makes the difference here, according to manufacturer EKOGEA and many users. What initially seemed complex is now simple: healthy intestines thanks to Divinita™.

The discovery that led to Divinita™

From biogas plant to intestinal balance

The manufacturer of Divinita™ won the prestigious Biogas Plant Award < 1 Megawatt in 2019. At first glance, this seems completely unrelated to a dietary supplement, but the link is surprisingly logical. A biogas plant converts organic waste – manure from cows, pigs or chickens – into methane, or energy.
In principle, the same thing happens in our bodies: bacteria convert food into energy, after which waste products leave our bodies.
These bacteria need the right nutrients to function optimally.
Divinita™, a 100% organic supplement, provides exactly that – for healthy intestinal flora and a vital body.

What biogas and our intestines have in common

Methane in a fart – a natural process

Yes, indeed! A fart contains methane, one of the gases released when food is broken down in our intestines.
The amount of methane depends on what you eat, the speed of your digestion and the composition of your intestinal flora.
Foods rich in fibre, such as beans or cabbage, stimulate methane production, while fatty foods affect the smell.

Methane from a biogas plant – energy from waste

A biogas plant breaks down organic material into biogas, which can be used as fuel. The process consists of four stages:

1. 1. Hydrolysis: the carbohydrates of organic material are broken down by bacteria into smaller particles.
2. Acid phase – bacteria form carbon dioxide, hydrogen, ammonia, and organic acids.
3. Acetic acid phase – organic acids are converted into acetic acid, CO₂ and hydrogen.
4. Methane phase – methanogens convert these substances into methane and CO₂.

The result is sustainable energy that can replace fossil fuels.

The parallel between humans and machines

Bacteria play a key role in both processes. In humans, we influence this process through our diet – and with Divinita™, we support this bacterial activity. In a biogas plant, each phase can be optimised separately, which is precisely what EKOGEA has mastered in detail.

EKOGEA's innovation: products made from knotted wrack for energy and ecology

BCx products – from animal health to agriculture

The high efficiency of EKOGEA's biogas plants—often between 70% and 90%—is due to innovative products made from knotted wrack, also known as BCx products. These are added to animal feed or drinking water, for example, to improve the intestinal health of animals.
Other variants help break down caked manure, reduce odors, and contribute to nitrogen reduction.
In addition, there are products made from knotted wrack that are used in agriculture, even as natural insecticides – ideal for organic farming.

Knotted wrack as a sustainable energy source

Knotted wrack is therefore not only the basis of Divinita™, but also of various ecological innovations. It demonstrates how a single natural ingredient can promote both technological progress and human health.

Technological optimizations with products made from knotted wrack

Front-end and back-end optimization

EKOGEA combines its knotted wrack products with smart technological engineering. Front-end and back-end optimization improves biogas processes, resulting in:

• higher energy yield,
• reuse of digestate,
• lower discharge costs,
• and a fully organic NPK product.

A sustainable, efficient and future-proof system.
