Zara & Omie: Sister Science

Sister Science: Zara vs. Misha in the Great Banana Debate

If you’ve ever been in a sibling showdown where you knew you were right—but your older sibling acted like they invented Google—you’ll feel Zara’s pain. 😂

In the latest Zara + Omie comic strip, Zara finds herself in a full-on science face-off with her big sister, Misha. The battleground? A banana. The topic? Prebiotics.

What’s This One About?

Zara proudly announces that her banana is feeding her “gut crew”—aka the good bacteria in her belly.
Misha, of course, rolls her eyes and corrects her with classic big-sister energy: “You mean prebiotics.”

What happens next? A bite, a flex, and a surprising moment of peace over… a bowl of dahi.

Gut Health, But Make It Funny

“Sister Science” is packed with gut-smart gems:
    •    What are prebiotics (and why are bananas full of them)?
    •    How real food fuels real health—for your brain and belly.
    •    And how siblings can argue over everything… until food unites them.

Zara may not win the science fair, but she wins the snack battle. And that counts.

Why We Made This Strip

We’re on a mission to make gut health fun, accessible, and family-friendly.
No lectures. No shame. Just characters like Zara and Misha show how everyday choices (like snacking on bananas or eating dahi) can shape your inner world—literally.

Plus, we all need more comics where girls discuss science, food, and bacteria like it’s no big deal because it should be.
