A pioneer in the postbiotics space
Postbiotics are opening doors of opportunity in the biotics space, riding the wave of consumers search for digestive and overall wellbeing. Unlike their probiotic counterparts, postbiotics are a preparation of inanimate microorganisms and/or their components that confer health benefits across several therapeutic areas including digestive health, metabolic heart heath, brain health and immunity.
As the most recently defined category of biotics, postbiotics offer a range of innovation opportunities for product development. For instance, recent findings indicate that 74% of consumers that use nutritional supplements to boost their health have tried a digestive health treatment, yet only 48% have used postbiotics.1 As such, brands can tap into the whitespace in the biotics market with sciencebacked postbiotic solutions for health and wellbeing.

Postbiotics offer a host of opportunities for product development in the biotics market. Thanks to their inanimate nature and high stability, they are easy to standardize, transport and store.
Take a deep dive into the full potential of postbiotics in our whitepaper.
Humiome® Post LB is a safe, stable and easy-to-use solution composed of a unique combination of two proprietary lactobacillus strains, metabolites and fermented culture medium that offers health benefits across several therapeutic areas.

Infant colic affects one in five infants during the first few months of life and is characterized by inconsolable crying with no obvious cause.
