Akkermansia is in 3,000+ science publications

Akkermansia has been gaining traction within the scientific and medical communities as more discoveries are made regarding the benefits of this novel strain.

Akkermansia muciniphila is a type of bacteria that resides in the gut microbiota, specifically in the mucus layer of the intestines.

This bacterium has gained significant attention in recent years due to its potential role in glucose metabolism and metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes.

Gut microbiota also play a role in modifying bile, leading to the formation of secondary bile acids. These modified bile acids can affect your metabolism and signaling pathways.

Some secondary bile acids, such as ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), may have protective effects against liver diseases and gallstone formation.

If you want to cultivate the right gut flora for gallbladder health, here are some facts you need to know:

  • Healthy bacteria in the gut influences the solubility of cholesterol in bile, reducing the likelihood of cholesterol crystallization and gallstone development.
  • Having healthy microbiota also creates healthy bile acid metabolism.
  • A healthy gut barrier prevents harmful substances from permeating your intestines and entering the bloodstream.
  • Akkermansia muciniphila has been shown to maintain the integrity of the gut barrier, reducing inflammation in the body, supporting liver health and healthy bile acid metabolism.
  • Akkermansia muciniphila has also been shown to play a role in reducing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

Note:

The images pictured here are for Pendulum's retail version of this probiotic. We carry and sell the PRO version, which you cannot access on the Pendulum website. The strength of this probiotic is the same, however the PRO version features enhanced bacterial longevity, meaning more of your probiotic will reach your gut alive! We recommend keeping this and all probiotics refrigerated for maximum benefit.
