Keystone Postbiotic®
For foundational gut microbiome health
Strains and grains work together to revitalize one’s existing beneficial gut microflora. Keystone Postbiotic® is a combination of well-characterized probiotic strains fermented with oats. It promotes the growth of keystone bacteria to support a healthy gut microbiome and balanced immune response.
Mechanisms of action for Keystone Postbiotic®
Functional redundancy from Keystone Postbiotic® intentionally selected ingredients delivers three synergistic mechanisms of action in the GI tract that together help support and strengthen foundational gut microbiome health.
Keystone Postbiotic® is produced through the precision fermentation of oats using two carefully selected probiotic strains; Lactiplantibacillus and Lacticaseibacillus, chosen for their ability to work together and create health-supporting compounds. This process helps deliver targeted benefits for gut health and microbiome balance
- Promotes microbiome health
- Supports production of beneficial keystone bacteria
- Strengthens immune performance
- Supports emotional wellbeing/mood
- Shelf and "process stable", does not need refrigeration.
How Does Keystone Postbiotic® work?
Keystone bacteria
Keystone bacteria, such as Bifidobacteria, Akkermansia, Anaerostipes, and Eubacterium, are important players in overall health. Bioactives found in Keystone Postbiotic increase the abundance of these beneficial microbes within the microbiome.
Metabolite driven
Keystone bacteria enhance the production of beneficial metabolites, such as butyrate, that have been shown to promote intestinal epithelial health and help balance digestive microflora.
Intestinal barrier integrity
Intestinal barrier integrity is paramount to a healthy gut and pivotal for a healthy immune response. Keystone Postbiotic tightens the intestinal barrier by promoting short chain fatty acid production, regulating tight junction proteins, and supporting the growth of keystone bacteria, such as Bifidobacteria that are correlated with a healthy intestinal barrier.
Immune function
Keystone Postbiotic® regulates levels of cytokines that play a crucial role in our immune system education, epithelial health, and inflammation response. By modulating these cytokines, Keystone Postbiotic helps protect barrier maintenance and wound repair in times of stress, while promoting a responsible immune response.
