In this investigative New Wave episode, host Taylor MacGillivary traces Dr. Abdullah “Dr. K” Kirumira‘s extraordinary path from 1970s Uganda to Windsor, Nova Scotia — and how his decades of cross-disciplinary biotech work produced Bioteem 40, a probiotic supplement designed to meet real-world nutrition and gut-health challenges. We explore the science behind the microbiome, the social and medical drivers of a global gut-health crisis, and why a simple, durable design matters for healthcare everywhere.
