For thousands of years, cultures around the world have turned to turmeric as a healing spice. In India, it's consumed daily in curries, golden milk, and teas. Yet there's a frustrating paradox: despite lifelong consumption, people aren't experiencing the profound anti-inflammatory benefits that ancient practitioners promised. 

The reason? When turmeric is cooked or processed in traditional ways, your body absorbs less than 1% of its active compounds. Even when combined with black pepper and healthy fats - techniques designed to boost absorption - the amount that reaches your bloodstream falls far short of therapeutic levels. 

Meanwhile, chronic low-grade inflammation quietly drives the most pressing health challenges of our time: type 2 diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, joint deterioration, fatty liver, and accelerated aging. We're facing an epidemic of inflammatory diseases, and despite our best efforts, conventional solutions aren't enough. 

There had to be a better way. 

The Breakthrough 

Armed with the bacterial strains from Bhutan, we began a meticulous screening process. We tested hundreds of isolates, searching for one that could unlock turmeric's hidden potential. We were looking for something specific: a strain that could activate anti-inflammatory pathways at the cellular level - not just suppress symptoms, but address inflammation at its source. 

After extensive research, one strain emerged as exceptional: Lactobacillus acidophilus IL-058. It didn't just survive in turmeric - it transformed it. Through fermentation, this remarkable microorganism converted turmeric's compounds into more than 550 bioactive metabolites, creating a complex matrix of molecules that work synergistically to support human health. 

We registered the strain at the prestigious Riken Institute in Japan and secured patent protection (FR2201333) for our unique extraction process. But registration and patents weren't our goal - proof was. 

This wasn't just fermented turmeric. This was something entirely new: a postbiotic.

“As the Founder, Director, and CEO of The Postbiotic Company, I'll be upfront: my opinion is hugely biased. But it's a risk I'm willing to take, because I was absolutely vested in getting this right. From day one, I pushed hard on the fundamentals. Every ingredient had to be naturally sourced; Japanese ingredients, EU manufactured, straight from the source with zero additives. I wanted 100% pure, raw material taken through fermentation. No compromises. And critically, I insisted on no live bacteria. Here's why: we all know how pre- and probiotics come loaded with live bacteria that simply get destroyed by your stomach acid before they ever reach your gut lining. It's rendering them useless essentially money down the drain. That's not good enough. So I built this product differently. Postbiotics. No live bacteria to be destroyed. Just the bioactive metabolites your body can actually use. Now, at 66, I'm in the thick of building this company, and I'm not about to let my body slow me down. The reality is, inflammation and joint stiffness had been creeping in, wearing on me in ways I couldn't ignore. So I tested what we created. Within days, something shifted. The stiffness in my joints that I'd accepted as 'just part of getting older' began to ease. I felt more mobile & able to move freely through my day without that persistent ache. The inflammation that's been my constant companion for years seemed to lighten considerably. I'm moving with more ease and fluidity now, handling the physical and mental demands of building a company without joint pain pulling at me. It's not about feeling 30 again. It's about having the mobility and ease I need to keep doing what I love and knowing I'm not putting something into my body that's just going to get destroyed before it works. That matters.” A.Jessel
“I started taking this expecting nothing miraculous, but within two days something shifted. My anxiety eased, the mental fog I'd been carrying lifted, and suddenly I had clarity and focus again. My mood brightened noticeably, I feel happier, more present, less weighed down. What surprised me most was how quickly it took my cravings of drinking alcohol away, as I used to be an avid drinker to manage my stress levels. Because of this I no longer feel the need to drink alcohol an it has given me an energy boost, mental and physical resilience to actually deal with my day and the problems in front of me. Even my chronic pain from an old motorbike accident seemed to ease and has completely reversed any pain I had. It's genuinely made a difference in how I feel day-to-day, highly recommend always having a stash in your cupboard, bags, car, purse you name it!” O.Mae
“I've noticed real changes since using this. I'm calmer, more focused, and my energy is noticeably better. My knee has been the biggest win, I pulled a ligament causing me a huge amount of pain, and it's eased significantly since starting on this protocol. I'm on a strict no-carb diet, which was leaving me constantly bloated and inflamed. That's changed since I've been using this, the bloating's gone down and I feel less inflamed overall. When I'm training at the gym, my gut's more stable and I've got better energy to push through my workouts. It's made enough of a difference to be part of my daily routine now.” L.Thomas
