Episode 49: What are Postbiotics?

In this episode, I'm diving deep into one of my absolute favourite topics - gut health! As someone who's been fascinated by the gastrointestinal system since my Year 9 biology days, I'm thrilled to share the latest research about pre, pro, and particularly postbiotics. This episode builds upon our previous discussion in Episode 30 - Probiotics and Prebiotics in Children, taking your understanding of gut health to the next level!
