It’s like the janitor who tidies up and ensures that the gut barrier, your body’s first line of defense, stays intact. In simple terms, it’s all about keeping the bad stuff from sneaking out and causing trouble. The BenefitsNow, let’s uncover the perks of having Akkermansia hanging out in your gut.
