Postbiotics Explained
The science inside every Mahalo Reserve gummy
What Are Postbiotics?
Postbiotics are the nutrients and compounds created when beneficial bacteria ferment natural fibers in the gut. Think of them as the final, active products of a healthy microbiome; the molecules that actually support digestion, immune balance, and calm.
Why They Matter
Postbiotics bridge the gap between probiotics and prebiotics by delivering all the benefits without the fragility of live cultures. They're clinically researched, shelf-stable, and fast-acting, and the next generation of gut wellness.
Our Formula
Mahalo Reserve uses Lactobacillus paracasei, a clinically studied postbiotic shown to support immune balance, calm, and gut barrier health. Paired with real guava extract, it brings tropical vitality and modern science together in one daily ritual.
