@dr.buck.nd: Akkermansia mucinophila is a newer probiotic on the market. It is proclaimed that having more abundant amounts of Akkermansia may be correlated to lower risk of obesity, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance and high blood pressure. ⬇️What the research says⬇️ Most were done in mice studies and select cross-over human trials. The cross-over and mice studies have found that Akkermansia can increase GLP-1 secretion and brown adipose tissue thermogenesis, decreasing digestive inflammation in mice, which would help support weight loss, insulin sensitivity and metabolic health. More individual randomized control trials in human clinical setting needs to be done, but this is an area that may have promise! How do you know your Akkermansia status? ✅Comprehensive stool analysis. ✅ as shown in the video. Ask your naturopathic doctor or functional medical doctor about testing.
