So… What Even Is Akkermansia?

Written By Victoria Paesano

Akkermansia muciniphila (say it like: ah-ker-MAN-see-uh mew-sin-IF-ih-luh) is a naturally occurring gut bacteria. It lives in the mucus lining of your intestines and helps:

  • Protect your gut barrier (so toxins don’t leak into your bloodstream)

  • Manage inflammation

  • Improve digestion

  • Support metabolism and insulin response

In short, it helps your body function at its best from the inside out.

People who are overweight or insulin-resistant often have lower levels of Akkermansia. That’s why researchers got excited when studies showed that supplementing with Akkermansia could support healthy weight, even without drastic lifestyle changes.
