Postbiotics complete the microbiome wellness picture.

New research continues to emerge demonstrating the positive impact that can come from postbiotics. From supporting metabolic health to mental and cognitive support, they have been gaining interest for their effectiveness in addressing a wide range of consumer wants and needs. 

With two clinically backed postbiotic products—ES1 and BPL1—plus the formulation flexibility to adapt to individual customer needs, ADM is your single trusted source for clinically studied and effective postbiotics. We conduct three-arm studies—live probiotic, inactive postbiotic, and placebo—to ensure our products perform. Our heat-treating method never changes, so you get batch-to-batch consistency, and we have the only facility in the world that manufactures both post and probiotics simultaneously.

Consumer Demand is Strong

Gut health and its impact on overall well-being are key drivers for today’s consumers. From improved digestive health to supporting healthy weight, there is strong demand for products that impact microbiome wellness.

It also supports metabolic pathways and can be incorporated into any type of functional food or beverage, including sports nutrition, better-for-you snacks, dairy, dietary supplements, and more.
