Postbiotics
Preparations of inanimate microorganisms and/or their components that confer health benefits to the host. These can include a mixture of cellular structures and metabolites such as teichoic acids, exopolysaccharides, peptidoglycan, and bacteriocins, which contribute to their health-promoting properties. Postbiotics are primarily targeted at individuals seeking to improve their gut health and overall well-being through non-living microbial products.
