that affect the texture, taste and nutritional
qualities of the food. These non-living metabolites
are postbiotics, which are an essential
part of the fermentation process.
Probiotic vs. Postbiotic
Many people have heard of probiotics
supporting digestive health. Probiotics are
live microorganisms that can be present in
foods like yogurt. However, when focusing
on fermented products, the benefits also come
from postbiotics. Postbiotics are non-living
metabolites and compounds produced by
microorganisms like yeast or bacteria during
a fermentation process. Instead of adding live
bacteria to your gut, you are adding their
metabolites. Postbiotics in turn support the
good bacteria already in your gut.
How Do You Get the
Postbiotics in Fermentation?
Incorporate fermented foods into your diet
like kombucha, kefir, sauerkraut, miso and
sourdough bread. If you don’t like the taste
of fermented foods, don’t have regular access
to them, and perhaps don’t want to eat a lot
of them, fermented supplements are an easy
option to get the benefits of postbiotics to
support your gut health and immune system.
Postbiotics don’t have bacteria that need to be
kept alive, so they don’t need refrigeration,
which means you can take it “on the go.”
When researching fermented supplements,
look for EpiCor, a first-of-its-kind fermentate
ingredient that taps the natural power
of fermentation to deliver immune and gut
health benefits in your vitamin and supplement
products. EpiCor fermentate is a whole
food ingredient, meaning nothing is extracted
or purified; it is like a multivitamin for your
immune system. Additionally, clinical studies
indicate EpiCor fermentate may help support
nasal health year around.
Three supplements that contain EpiCor are
Country Life, Healthy Origins and Align Kombucha
On-The-Go. For more information and
a full list of products, visit epicorhealth.com.
Why Eat Fermented Foods
and Supplements?
It’s important that people understand that
you should support your immune system every
day. Fermented foods and supplements support
immune health and gut health. These foods
and supplements support the gut microbiome,
the complex system of microorganisms that
make up a healthy environment in your
digestive tract.
“It’s critical to take care of your health
every day. That starts with supporting
your immune system,” says Gans. “Fermented
foods and supplements help you do
just that.” •

BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on
this property lien, you should understand that
there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee
auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on
the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a
trustee auction does not automatically entitle
you to free and clear ownership of the property.
You should also be aware that the lien being
auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are
the highest bidder at the auction, you are or
may be responsible for paying off all liens
senior to the lien being auctioned off, before
you can receive clear title to the property. You
are encouraged to investigate the existence,
priority, and size of outstanding liens that may
exist on this property by contacting the county
recorder’s office or a title insurance company,
either of which may charge you a fee for
this information. If you consult either of these
resources, you should be aware that the same
lender may hold more than one mortgage or
deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO
PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown
on this notice of sale may be postponed one
or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary,
trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of
the California Civil Code. The law requires that
information about trustee sale postponements
be made available to you and to the public, as
a courtesy to those not present at the sale.
