What Are Postbiotics and What Do They Do?

Postbiotics are the beneficial by-products created by probiotics that provide benefits in the gut microbiome that work to improve overall wellbeing. Postbiotics are produced when probiotics break down and ferment undigested plant-based fibers that have passed through the stomach and small intestine. These compounds include metabolites and substrates like short-chain fatty acids, antimicrobial peptides and bacteriocins, and vitamins B and K and other nutrients.

Postbiotics have been shown to promote gut health, reduce inflammation, and support immune function as well as being responsible for much of the healing effect on your digestive system. Postbiotics are essential to promoting a balanced gut microbiome, and in turn, improving your overall health and wellbeing as postbiotic compounds can help further fuel gut bacteria and foster the continued growth and establishment of new cultures of probiotics while supressing the growth of harmful bacteria in your microbiome. By fostering a healthily balanced microbiome, postbiotics help facilitate the improvement of gut function, preventing digestive issues, supporting immunity and providing a healthier overall state of wellbeing.
