Postbiotics are bioactive preparations containing inactive microbial cells and their components, which – although not alive – exert a beneficial effect on the human body. Unlike probiotics, whose effects depend on the survival and colonization of bacteria in the gut, postbiotics act independently of viability, are stable, easy to store, and can be safer for sensitive individuals.

How do postbiotics support health?

Clinical studies show that postbiotics can support the body in many ways:

• Strengthening the intestinal barrier – they help maintain the integrity of the mucosa and support the defensive mechanisms of the digestive tract, contributing to improved digestion and immune function.
• Modulating the immune system – postbiotic components interact with various immune system cells, which can support the body in fighting infections and inflammation.
• Reducing symptoms of intestinal disorders – in controlled studies, postbiotics were effective, among others, in alleviating diarrhea and irritable bowel syndrome symptoms.
• Supporting general health – data suggest that postbiotics may also beneficially affect the frequency of respiratory tract infections and the balance of the gut microbiota.

Pretty Care – a postbiotic created from 19 bacterial strains

Based on the growing scientific knowledge about postbiotics, Pretty Care was developed – a modern postbiotic containing 19 carefully selected bacterial strains. This product combines the advantages of natural bacterial metabolites with convenience and safety of use, offering support for the gut microbiome and immune system in an effective and friendly way, even for individuals with sensitive digestive systems.
