Our Story

Wellbeing Starts With Your Gut

Deep in the heart of Australia’s Bungawalbin Valley, within the pristine organic rainforest, Meluka Australia discovered something extraordinary—a powerful probiotic strain in thriving, healthy beehives. Lactobacillus rhamnosus Beebiotic MAP01®, our proprietary strain, has been at the core of our mission to support gut health and overall wellbeing.

Guided by a spirit of innovation, we’ve harnessed the incredible potential of this strain to create delicious, everyday products designed to help support your gut health and overall wellbeing.

Lactobacillus rhamnosus Beebiotic MAP01®

Unique to Meluka Australia, this strain is linked to studies for diversity in the gut microbiome, improved gut health and overall wellbeing. 

 

This powerful probiotic strain, discovered in our beehives, is related to the Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain, one of the most well-researched and widely used probiotic strains.  It has been the subject of over 1,000 scientific publications, which explore its diverse health benefits across various demographics and populations including infants, children, adults, and the elderly. To date, research highlights its potential to enhance gut microbiota diversity, promote skin health, improve metabolic function, and positively influence mood. Additionally, Lactobacillus rhamnosus is known for its resilience in harsh gastrointestinal conditions, allowing it to survive stomach acid and bile and thrive in the gut microbiome.

Powered by Postbiotics

While prebiotics and probiotics often take the spotlight in gut health discussions, postbiotics are quickly emerging as another essential player in supporting a balanced microbiome. These naturally occurring bioactive compounds are created when probiotic bacteria ferment prebiotics in the gut, producing beneficial metabolites that actively contribute to overall digestive health. In fact, many of the benefits we tend to associate with probiotics can be traced back to postbiotics, highlighting their vital role in maintaining a thriving gut environment. Postbiotics are a game-changer for gut health, delivering benefits directly to your digestive system without needing to go through the fermentation process. By providing a fast track to better digestion, a stronger immune system, and overall well-being, postbiotics can help to rapidly boost and support your gut to help you feel at your best. 

Postbiotics are a key ingredient in all our gut health products. Our Postbiotic Tonic range offers a delicious and convenient way to support digestion—enjoy it as a health shot or a refreshing, gut-boosting drink. Meanwhile, our Gut Nutrition powders combine specialised postbiotic strains with prebiotics, probiotics, and superfoods, to help deliver targeted support for specific gut health needs with a daily scoop.
