EpiCor® postbiotic is derived from the fermentation of baker’s yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). The final step in the fermentation process includes a gentle heat-kill which inactivates the yeast while maintaining active metabolites. The result is an inanimate ingredient that is pH, heat, and shelf stable. This inanimate ingredient has been the focus of 12 published studies with an efficacious dose of just 500mg.

Inanimate yet effective.
