What is a postbiotic?
Billions of beneficial bacteria live in our gut. As they ferment and interact with our bodies, they naturally produce compounds known as postbiotics.
To better understand this, we distinguish between three key concepts related to the microbiota:
Prebiotics: fibres that feed the good bacteria
Probiotics: live microorganisms
Postbiotics: compounds produced by these microorganisms (metabolites, organic acids, etc.)
Postbiotics are therefore the end result of the microbiota’s activity.
Why include them?
Postbiotics are currently the subject of extensive research due to their role in maintaining the balance of the microbiota and supporting digestive function.
What makes them particularly interesting:
Already active : they do not need to be processed by the body
More stable : they are more resistant to heat and time than live probiotics
Well tolerated : they can be easily incorporated into the daily diet
Unlike probiotics, their effectiveness does not depend on their survival in the body. Nowadays, our diets are not always rich in fermented foods. Incorporating postbiotics can be a simple way to complement your lifestyle, without any hassle. Regular consumption is part of a wellness routine, just like a balanced diet. A simple way to improve daily digestive comfort, without changing your habits.
How much should you eat?
The first effects may be noticeable from as little as 2 cans a day, with the recommended intake being 3 cans a day.
For best results, a course of 1 to 3 months may be beneficial, depending on your needs and how regularly you consume it.
Best enjoyed well chilled, at any time of day.
The benefits of postbiotics
Postbiotics are being studied for their role in maintaining the balance of the gut microbiota. Unlike live probiotics, they are more stable and easier to incorporate into a drink.
The main benefits of postbiotics:
- already active compounds
- greater heat stability
- good digestive tolerance
- easy to incorporate into daily life
