Your best line of defense
Stress, repeated antibiotic use, and other external factors can degrade the integrity of your gut lining. When this happens, the toxins in your gut can more easily infiltrate your body. Another adverse effect is a reduction in the amount of Akkermansia muciniphila, a naturally occurring bacterial strain essential for maintaining the integrity of your gut barrier and thus your overall gut health.
Akkermansia is a foundational strain that fortifies your gut lining, reduces gut permeability, and supports metabolic function.
Improve gut health and digestion-Akkermansia reinforces the mucin layer of the gut lining, reducing permeability and supporting overall digestive comfort.

How Akkermansia fortifies your gut
1- RESET
The Akkermansia bacteria feeds on mucin, the thin protective layer that keeps your gut lining strong and less permeable.
2 - REPLENISH
As the Akkermansia consumes mucin, it stimulates your gut to produce new mucin.
3 - REINFORCE
Freshly produced mucin fortifies your gut barrier and keeps toxins from traveling to the rest of your body.
