I was 11 in 1971 when I was diagnosed with psoriasis. We knew nothing about autoimmune. I always had digestive problems and I sensed they my later autoimmune problems were gut related. I’ve dealt with gut issues my whole life. Thank you for this interesting and informative discussion.
Not all probiotics and fermented foods are equally good for all women. Especially for perimenopausal women because of estrogen and histamine connection. It affects our gut, skin, nervous system, heart etc.
Such an informative video. I started this supplement recently and will now add it to my husband's daily supplements. While I did my own research before purchasing, your clear-cut explanations are better than what I found online. Thank you!
Dr Willliam Li says drinking a cup of unsweetened, unprocessed pomegranate juice daily increases Akkermansia in the gut. Patients with high levels of Akkermansia responded very well to immunotherapy for cancer treatment. Immunotherapy failed for people with low or no levels.
Thank you for talking about the gut microbiome! Please keep this information coming. When I eat I always think about what would my gut buddies like to eat. I’m way more motivated to eat well for them.
My Akkermansia levels were not even detectable on a GI Map, although I’m not overweight at all. I’ve been taking Pendulum Akkermansia for several months now and if nothing else, it has helped with my constipation. Hopefully a followup test will show an increase of those in my gut.
I had the same results and have been on that for 2 weeks now and feel no difference. I’m also taking Mega Pre, I have horrible constipation and was hoping to see a difference by now, but maybe I need more time to notice.
Try taking daily cranberry extract or if there is such a thing of pomegranate extract basically those are actor mancilla Foods and keep akkermansia happier more likely to produce more of the species, Ackerman she's getting to be known as a keystone species of the microbiome of the gut
So very interesting. Would you mind sharing the specific Probiotic you are referring to from Thorne? I have spent so much time and money trying to figure out the best “ bang for your buck” with probiotics. Very exciting news about Akkermansia. What is the test you referred to in this segment to do at home for gut health ? Science is amazing. Thank you for sharing.
@@lindabommarito4623 did she mention where to get or what the home test is to check the bacteria? Maybe I missed it - didn’t know that home tests were even available.
@@drsusanwhat would you recommend? The Akkermansia OR the GLP-1 ? It looks like the GLP-1 has akkermansia in it along with two other ingredients. Would that be better to take then just the akkermansia? It is pretty costly to order both.
What foods contain Akkermansia muciniphila? How Can I Boost Akkermansia Levels in My Gut? Unfortunately, there are no foods that contain Akkermansia, so you can't eat Akkermansia. However, to encourage the growth of Akkermansia, you can eat foods rich in polyphenols, including apples, beans, berries, grapes, flaxseed, green tea, nuts, olives, asparagus, onions, oats, etc.
I take a multi strain, probiotic and plain Akkermansia personally Pendulum does make multi strain antibiotics, that include Akkermansia - another great choice !
I’ve been on the site refreshing which product to use for 3 months now. But I read having diverticulitis (having an episode)I read don’t take it, any thoughts?? Waiting until all better to start this product. Can anyone share did it help with constipation bloat?
@@drsusanI discovered the pasturized version the manufacturer claims its the superior form not pendulum. I googled it and google also agreed so now Im confused. What's actually better or do we actually know? I have psoriasis only reason I considered it.
PAm is a bacterium that's normally found in gut microbiota, but it's less common in people who are obese. It's pasteurized using mild heat treatment to less than 100ºC, and is used in the form of cell-wall components and membrane proteins.

You have the gift of teaching. Thanks for explaining.

Do you experience gut issues and is that why you purchased this product
Very interesting! I had never heard of this probiotic before. I am going to talk to my holistic nutritionist about this. Thank you!
Thank you for always sharing your know to us and explaining it the way you do.

Wonderful information. Love how you explained this! Thank you.
I’m so glad they are finally doing micro biome & gut health research! It’s so important to our overall health & wellbeing.

@@kylieky7 It took longer than 2 weeks to see a difference for me….maybe about a month. Good luck!

Thank you, that was really interesting.
I thought the study used pasteurized Akerrmansia?

Dr. Susan, do you take the Thorne product AND the Pendulum Metabolic Daily or a similar Pendulum product?
I take a multi strain, probiotic and plain Akkermansia personally

Thank you Susan for sharing this information. I found it on Amazon.
Make sure it's pendulum - the other products don't have live bacteria!

Pasteurized Akkermansia muciniphila (PAm) has been shown to be more effective than live Akkermansia muciniphila (Am) in several studies:
