Abstract : Postbiotics are formulations containing dead/heat killed microbes or their components that provide health benefits to the host. The term "postbiotic" has captivated numerous researchers due to its extended shelf life, safe dosage limits, unique chemical structure, and the production of various signaling molecules that regulate immune-modulatory, anti-proliferative, antihypertensive, anti-inflammatory, anti-obesogenic, and hypocholesterolemic, antioxidant activities. This comprehensive analysis focuses on the practical application of probiotics and postbiotics as potential probiotic products, emphasizing their conceptual framework, mechanism of action, and practical implementation to enhance livestock and poultry productivity. The impact of postbiotics differs based on the particular therapeutic setting in which they are given, and they exert their influence by means of cellular and molecular mechanisms, including modulation of the immune and nervous systems.
