413- What is the Most Effective Probiotic and Why?

The New Frontier in Microbiome Science

Probiotics and postbiotic metabolites

In this interview with Ross Pelton we will discuss probiotics and postbiotic metabolites. Specifically we will discuss Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotic and contrast that with common and conventional probiotics. Safe to say there is a huge distinction to be made.

The popularization of probiotics in the marketplace has led to the commoditization and of cheap and largely ineffective probiotics. This has also led to many consumers being confused as to how to choose a quality product. This is the story of Dr. Ohhira and his development of his innovative probiotic supplements. Dr. Ohhira’s probiotic is unique and stands alone.

Here is an excerpt from Ross Pelton’s new book:

“The more I investigated the remarkable research into postbiotic metabolites, the more I came to appreciate the importance of Dr. Ohhira’s
visionary wisdom. The unique multi-year fermentation process he created to produce Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics results in the formation of over 500 postbiotic metabolites. Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics deliver a comprehensive microbiome system that contains probiotic bacteria, prebiotic foods, and a diverse range of postbiotic metabolites.


Postbiotic metabolites play a critical role in maintaining bacterial balance and correcting a wide range of intestinal problems. However, beyond the gut, postbiotic metabolites influence the function of every organ system, including the brain and the immune system. The fact that postbiotic metabolites are master health-regulating compounds for the whole body is a fascinating new understanding of health and life.


Postbiotic metabolites are the new frontier in microbiome science. Dr. Ohhira’s multiyear fermentation production process results in a fnal product that contains over 500 postbiotic metabolites. The unique fermentation process he created came years before the Human Genome Project was even conceived, and the probiotic he developed, which is a combination of live bacteria, prebiotic foods, and most importantly, postbiotic metabolites, helps restore a healthy bacterial balance and ease intestinal discomfort. By delivering a complete microbiome system, Dr. Ohhira was on the cutting edge of microbiome science and probiotic development. The result is better health”
