Bio Concepts

Bio Concepts At Bio Concepts, quality independent and cutting-edge education has underpinned every facet of the business since its’ inception over 40 years ago.

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 scientific 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.

🐾 Meet Koda, our Wellness Officer Of Fun (WOOF)

From surprise zoomies to shameless pat-requesting, this little legend is single-pawedly keeping team morale sky-high. Honestly… who even needs coffee with this much cuteness around? ☕🐶

Today was a big one for Koda, popping in on the clinical support team upstairs, spending quality time with the customer service gals, and charming the regs & NPD team.

According to Operations Manager (and proud dog mum) Lauren, Koda was absolutely tuckered out after bringing joy to every corner of the building. It's hard work being this adorable! 🐾✨

🍎 Your diet doesn’t just fuel your body – it rewires your brain. 🧠

Emerging research indicates that what we eat may shape the brain’s reward system, mood, and even our cravings.¹ When the brain doesn’t get the nutrients it needs, it can’t produce enough neurotransmitters like serotonin, with the potential to lead to mood shifts and compulsive behaviours.

What’s even more fascinating? 🦠
Our gut microbiome, the trillions of microbes living in our digestive system, are believed to play a significant role in how we experience rewards and make food choices. And these patterns begin forming in childhood.

From technology habits to eating behaviours, kids’ brains are constantly being shaped by their environment, and diet is one of the most powerful influences.

✨ Nourish the gut
✨ Support the brain
✨ Build healthier reward patterns for life

Dopamine isn’t the “problem.” It’s the pathway. 🧠⚡

The Brain Reward Cascade is the dopamine system that helps drive motivation, learning, and pleasure. Everyday habits like screen time, tech use, and eating patterns can influence this system, especially for children. Understanding these effects can help us support healthier behaviours and prevent unhelpful patterns from forming.

➡️ Swipe to explore simple ways to build healthy dopamine habits that support focus, energy, and genuine joy.

Wild-caught vs. farmed – what’s the catch? 🐟

Marine collagen is a powerhouse for supporting healthy skin and overall wellbeing ✨
But it isn’t a one-size-fits-all, so understanding the difference between wild-caught and farmed varieties can help you choose what’s best for you.

🌊 Wild-caught marine collagen comes from fish that live freely in the ocean, feeding on a natural diet. This can result in slight variations in nutrient composition and trace minerals depending on their environment,

💧 Farmed marine collagen is sourced from fish raised in controlled environments. This allows for consistent quality and traceability from catch to collagen.

Both options offer high quality collagen peptides – what matters most is how the product is processed and purified. Whether you choose wild-caught or farmed, marine collagen remains one of nature’s most effective ways to support your glow from within ✨
