Our mission to reduce the burden of chronic disease and create a healthier future. Bio Concepts was founded in 1984 by Nutritional Biochemist and author Henry Osiecki. Henry has published a number of text books on nutrition including The Nutrient Bible and his more recent text book, Cancer: The Importance of Clinical Nutrition. He also spent time as a research scientist and published a number of s

cientific papers in peer reviewed journals. Henry has been an integral part of the development and success of this company, helping Bio Concepts to be the first to bring a number of key nutrients into the Australian market such as CoQ10, Lipoic Acid and Acetyl-L- Carnitine. He was also the first to introduce glucosamine into Australia and promote this as the anti-arthritic formulae in the early 1990’s. He has played a pivotal role in changing the pharmaceutical model of formulations into a nutritional model and is the founder of the concept of synergistic formulations in an era where only orthomolecular high dose nutrients were available. Bio Concepts provide interactive learning to naturopaths, clinical nutritionists and mental health clinicians, as well as providing synergistic nutritional formulations for patient care. Through our educational Seminars, Workshops and Symposiums, along with our web-based educational activities and online resources, Bio Concepts’ education simplifies complex concepts to enhance clinicians understanding on a range of conditions. Bio Concepts practitioner members also have access to online resources at www.bioconcepts.com.au with a focus on the essentials of nutritional biochemistry in areas such as Mental Health, Cancer Prevention and Support, Inflammatory Disease and Epigenetics.

Sulforaphane has long been celebrated as a detox powerhouse, but have you met its potent sibling, sulforaphene?

Interestingly, fresh radish sprouts not only yield sulforaphene, but have a high myrosinase content. The latter is why when combined, broccoli sprouts and radish sprouts are believed to help increase broccoli's potential sulforaphane yield compared to broccoli sprouts alone.

However, bioavailability issues with outdated technology mean we're not seeing the results we need. It's time for something new.

What if we could elevate DIM's potential for faster and improved correction of oestrogen metabolism? Discover insights on unlocking the full potential of DIM in our latest research flyer! 🌿✨

Here are quick lifestyle tips to regulate cortisol levels.

🥗 Maintain a healthy diet
Eat a balanced diet, reduce sugar and refined carbohydrates, and stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water!

🧘 Practice meditation
Try guided meditations, switch off, and take 3 deep breaths. Meditation can work wonders!

🚶‍♀️ Move your body
Low to moderate intensity movement is best to keep cortisol levels in check. High-intensity exercise will have the opposite effect and raise cortisol.

😴 Prioritize quality sleep
Create a wind-down routine, switch off overhead lights, and keep your phone aside to curate the perfect sleep environment.

Celebrating 40 years of Bio Concepts! 🎉

Founded in 1984 by nutritional biochemist Henry Osiecki, our journey has been a testament to dedication and innovation in the health industry.

In 2017 Henry announced his retirement, passing the reigns onto his son, Dr. Michael Osiecki [PhD, BE (Chemical), BBiotech(Hons)]. Michael has been involved with Bio Concepts his entire life, interning at the NPD laboratory as a university student and working in the Bio Concepts warehouse during his schooling years. His vision for Bio Concepts is that it should retain the values of a family-owned company, while maintaining a forward-thinking approach to continually improve the industry we love.
