TICKET INCLUDES: EXCLUSIVE ACCESS TO THE INVISIBLE EXTINCTION DOCUMENTARY
In The Invisible Extinction, superstar scientists Profs Blaser and Dominguez-Bello - passionate partners in life and in the lab - show us how overuse of antibiotics and elective C-sections are destroying the healthy bacteria in our bodies, and fuelling the stratospheric rise in obesity, diabetes, asthma, and food allergies. Our dynamic duo is on a mission to protect and restore our missing microbes before it's too late.
TICKET INCLUDES: THE GUTSY GAME
Play at your own pace before or after the keynote and breakout sessions.
At-Sunrice GlobalChef Academy's premises have been transformed into a giant gut. Make your way through the gut and perform challenges like:
🏆 Matching microbes with what they do from producing vitamins to supporting our metabolism.
🏆 Matching foods to prevent blood sugar spikes
🏆 Checking whether what you are eating is good for your gut
Earn good microbe cards for each challenge completed. But beware of Whammies like diseases, pathogens and bad food that will deplete your good microbe cards. Get six cards and be rewarded with a delicious ice popsicle that’s good for your gut and good for the earth (it’s made from upcycled food waste!).
