Akkermansia

Akkermansia is a beneficial type of bacteria naturally found in your gut, playing a key role in maintaining digestive health. It helps keep the gut lining healthy and balanced by breaking down mucus and supporting the immune system. Research suggests that higher levels of Akkermansia are associated with overall metabolic health, potentially reducing risks related to obesity, diabetes, and inflammation. Maintaining a diverse and healthy gut microbiome through diet and lifestyle can support the growth of Akkermansia, contributing to better digestion and well-being.
