Akkermansia muciniphila, a bacterium naturally present in the intestinal microbiota, plays a key role in the regulation of weight and metabolism.

It helps maintain the integrity of the intestinal barrier by consuming the mucus produced by the intestine, which limits the systemic inflammation associated with obesity. In addition, this bacterium is linked to better insulin sensitivity and fat metabolism, thus promoting weight loss.

Studies show that high levels of Akkermansia in the microbiota are correlated with effective weight management. In overweight individuals, its supplementation has shown beneficial effects on reducing fat mass and improving metabolic markers.

It also works by stimulating receptors that regulate fat storage and appetite.

The strain Bifidobacterium animalis ssp. lactis 420 is well known to increase the abundance of Akkermansia muciniphila bacteria
