Postbiotics for Gut Health

What are Postbiotics?

The bioactive substances known as postbiotics are created when dietary fiber is broken down and digested by probiotics, which are beneficial bacteria in the gut. Examples include short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) like butyrate, as well as other metabolites.

  • Benefits:
    • To stop leaky gut, fortify the intestinal wall.
