But what exactly are postbiotics, and why are they so beneficial?
Research shows that postbiotics have several positive effects on both well-being and health. Here are a few examples:
Optimizes the immune system
Postbiotics can help the immune system respond faster and more effectively by improving immune cells’ ability to detect bacteria and viruses.
Promotes a healthy gut flora
A balanced gut flora is essential for digestion, nutrient absorption, and overall well-being. Postbiotics help create a healthy balance in the gut – which can also contribute to less odor from stool.
Boosts energy and vitality
Studies show that dogs receiving postbiotics in their diet are often more active, alert, and have improved mobility – they even run faster!
Here’s how it all connects – pre-, pro-, and postbiotics:
- Prebiotics – Fibers that serve as food for beneficial bacteria in the gut. (They’ve long been included in, for example, Bozita Robur dry food for dogs!)
- Probiotics – Live beneficial bacteria that support healthy digestion and gut flora. (Naturally present in the gut!)
- Postbiotics – The beneficial compounds produced when probiotic bacteria break down prebiotics and other nutrients in the gut.
NEW! We’ve now added postbiotics to selected products from Bozita!
In other words:
Postbiotics are the result of the interaction between probiotics and prebiotics – and it’s these multi beneficial compounds we’ve added to give your dog and cat extra support for an active and healthy life!
