About us
We are microbiologists
Thanks to our microbiological training and decades of experience in microbiological research and practice, you will receive well-founded, scientifically accurate and up-to-date information from us. We know what we are talking about.
We look at health from a unique perspective that includes the connection between microbiology, mindfulness and health. We support you in discovering the world of bacteria as the key to a balanced, healthy and happy life.
Our aim is to provide you with comprehensive information and to promote your health holistically. You can rest assured: We are independent and do not answer to anyone. This means you can be sure that we only focus on the best results for you.
How do we finance ourselves?
Through independent advice, lectures, courses and workshops that impart in-depth microbiological knowledge and the latest scientific findings. These offers not only support you with health issues, but also help you to live a more conscious, healthier and happier life.
Chief Operating Officer
Laura Snaidr is a biologist and completed her Master’s degree at the Technical University of Munich. She specialized in neurobiology and microbiology in particular. She wrote her master’s thesis on Parkinson’s disease at the Helmholtz Center in Munich.
After graduating, she spent 8 months in Southeast Asia, in particular on Koh Phangan in Thailand, where she came into intensive contact with the teachings of mindfulness.
Laura combines her passions for classical biology and mindfulness teachings to take a holistic approach to health. With Magnospira, she wants to bring microbiology more into focus and help people take ownership of their health by connecting “bacteria”, “health” and “mindfulness”.

„
We believe that the importance of bacteria will become ever more important in the future and that people today know far too little about microorganisms and their influence on our lives, and then only incorrectly. We are convinced that new perspectives, a new view of bacteria, health and life, can promote happiness and satisfaction among people.
Why My Bacteria?
We live in a time when the microbiome is making headlines and misunderstandings are rampant.
My Bacteria was founded to make scientific knowledge about microorganisms accessible in an understandable, critical and independent way.
We show how closely health, behavior and the environment are linked to microorganisms. Where real science ends and marketing begins.
Science instead of promises
All content on My Bacteria is based on scientific publications. We evaluate levels of evidence, cite primary literature and show transparently where research leaves questions unanswered.
My Bacteria is not a place for health promises, but for insights.
