Why
Metabolic
Daily
The goal of achieving peak metabolic health is only possible with a healthy, balanced gut microbiome. Decreased levels of keystone bacteria strains and a weakened gut barrier are two of the factors that can prevent you from utilizing nutrients effectively and lead to a drop in your energy level as the day wears on. Simply changing your diet and exercising may not be enough to fully balance your microbiome.
Akkermansia is a foundational strain that fortifies your gut lining, reduces gut permeability, and supports metabolic function.
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.
