SlimBiome sales have slowed down, must be end of promotion?
elrico just need it to hold any gain, up hill battle to last high, especially as peeps take profit, need excellent results to shift north - face -:)
In shop window of Holland & Barrett nice one . It's huge :)
From TW on his website this morning. I won’t break his copyright but it’s very bullish and well worth a read.
This is looking very cheap.
Told you. Word of mouth will sell it.
I and another PI have been in H&B stores in Bolton and Madchester today. Store assistants have told us Boombod is to be discontinued and now the push is for SlimBiome, which has been selling better than expected. This is great news for SlimBiome in H&B stores. CholBiome next?
Uruguayan yoghurts today, tomorrow the stars. Or something like that...

("OptiBiotix" or the "Company")
Extension of LP(LDL) (R) into Dairy Products
OptiBiotix Health plc (AIM: OPTI), a life sciences business developing compounds to tackle obesity, cardiovascular disease and diabetes, announces that its wholly-owned subsidiary ProBiotix Health Ltd. ("ProBiotix"), has signed a licencing agreement with Granja Pocha S.A. ("Granja Pocha") for the inclusion of ProBiotix's patented probiotic strain LP(LDL) (R) into a functional yogurt product in Uruguay, South America.
Under the terms of the agreement, SACCO S.r.l., which helped develop the yogurt formulation, will supply ProBiotix's cholesterol and blood pressure-reducing probiotic strain Lactobacillus plantarum LP(LDL) (R), under a non-exclusive licence to Granja Pocha for inclusion into fermented milk products, such as yogurts, in Uruguay, with the aim of maximising the financial return for both Granja Pocha and ProBiotix. There are no minimum sales targets in the licencing agreement.
Granja Pocha, was founded in 1980 in the main dairy basin of the Río de la Plata, Juan Lacaze, department of Colonia, Uruguay. Since 2013, they have sold products under the Colonial brand, including dulce de leche, cheeses, and yogurts. Granja Pocha describe themselves as having become one of Uruguay's largest and most respected dairy producers over the years.
Steve Prescott, CEO of ProBiotix, commented: "We are pleased to announce this agreement with Granja Pocha, which will expand LP(LDL) (R)'s presence into South America and extends its use into dairy products. Granja Pocha was chosen as our partner to create a functional yogurt containing LP(LDL) (R) because of their technical expertise in dairy, track record of successfully launching new products, and extensive knowledge of the local market. The work carried out by Granja Pocha is a significant milestone as it extends the use of LP(LDL) (R) into functional foods, in this case dairy, which may be replicated in other territories. Functional foods like this yogurt containing ProBiotix's LP(LDL) (R) provide a unique format for customer to receive the cholesterol reducing benefits of LP(LDL) (R) and capitalises on a growing industry trend towards functional foods.
Having sold £70k worth over 7 days to buy into GGP, I am looking to buy back in. Still hold £60k worth and whilst my OPTI holdings obviously made a loss, I am up £22k overall. From a marketing perspective OPTI are first in with the scientifically proven label and even a small sample size showing weight loss is conclusive, otherwise Holland and Barrat wouldn't be giving tens of thousands of free advertising. Just bought another 10000 shares.
where the bottom of the downward cycle will reach to, but have placed some buy orders at 55p, 54p and 53p.
Just searched on web for optibac prebiotics.
Are these optibiotics products???
eshaitan, I misunderstood you, see what you're saying.
It said that on their website in December.
But where exactly? I can’t find any online.
Read down says it's in stores.

My wife has high cholesterol and rather than take Statins she is thinking of trying CholmBiome x3. What is the feedback on this product? Would love to hear from anyone who has tried it as an alternative to statins. Thanks.
It was, but the products are available to the consumer as of yesterday, or at least that is how I read the difference between the announcements.
I think this was announced in December.
I haven’t managed to find any pharmacies online selling meta lite or meta lite pro yet. Or on metalites homepage, where the purchase link doesn’t work.
Unlike ezimega3 in Italy which is advertised on about 20 online pharmacies.
Says 6th Jan on post, is this old news?

Duo of new SlimBiome® products to launch in India
OptiBiotix Health PLC (‘OptiBiotix’), a life sciences business developing compounds to tackle obesity, cardiovascular disease and diabetes, has announced the commercial launch of two innovative new health products containing SlimBiome® to the Indian market.
In partnership with fully integrated pharmaceutical and biotechnology businesses Anthem BioPharma Pvt Ltd (‘Anthem BioPharma’) and Zeon Life Sciences (‘Zeon’), two new products have now been made available to consumers in India. Both innovations contain patented SlimBiome®, further boosting the significant global commercial presence of the award-winning functional ingredient.
The newly-launched Metalite is a supplement to aid with effective weight management. Metalite makes use of SlimBiome’s patented combination of naturally derived ingredients to facilitate effective weight loss without relying on willpower alone.
In addition, Metalite Pro has become India’s first and only high protein meal replacement product for weight reduction, which harnesses SlimBiome to promote a feeling of fullness while supporting strong diversity of gut microbiota. Metalite Pro contains an effective blend of protein, carbohydrates and fats, as well as being fortified with vitamins and minerals.
Dr Fred Narbel, Managing Director of the prebiotics divison at OptiBiotix, commented: “We are delighted to announce our commercial partnership with Anthem BioPharma alongside Zeon. Our global presence continues to go from strength to strength and India is a perfect example of how SlimBiome meets the growing market demands. Rising urbanisation and rapidly growing consumption of processed food has led many to seek naturally derived weight management solutions.
“Metalite and Metalite Pro are great examples of health innovations that meet shifting consumer demands and break new ground in the region. It truly showcases the versatility and flexibility of SlimBiome as an ingredient, and we are confident in our ability to replicate similar partnerships in other markets and geographies.“
Seems a silly move considering all the recent licensing announcements and commencement of reasonable revenue. Wouldn't want to be out of this at all atm
Interesting tactic, could have made a few quid over the years doing the same. Risky at this stage in my view though
my last few OPTI shares. Looks ready to start the trimonthly cycle downwards. Will buy back again on the way up.
Welcome onboard Kums,
Seems its now gently breaking out of the 69p resistance points . Expect we will see other investors coming aboard as the trend break out line becomes established.
Expect that will now act as support putting a new floor on the price.
Fully respect this style of investing, might not get the best price but less risk and less time having funds tied up.
One negative with such reduced liquidity might be stock availability if a large position is sought.
Good to see the products continuing to sell well, but as always DYOR.
Just added more.
100p will start attracting big investors. For me now is the time to accumulate.
Buying pressure building. Not all trades showing including mine.
