Akkermansia Plus Details
A healthy gut barrier plays an important role in more than digestive health – it also helps support healthy metabolism throughout the body. Akkermansia muciniphila is a naturally occurring bacterium in the gut microbiome that helps maintain this protective barrier.*
Akkermansia Plus features MucT®, a clinically studied pasteurized form of A. muciniphila. Pasteurization preserves key bioactive components of Akkermansia while creating a stable postbiotic that does not require refrigeration, providing targeted support for gut barrier function and metabolic health.*
Pomegranate extract provides polyphenols that help nourish naturally occurring live Akkermansia in the gut. Together, pasteurized Akkermansia and pomegranate extract support gut barrier function.* A healthy gut barrier creates a more favorable metabolic environment.

A deeper look at the ingredients in Thorne Akkermansia Plus
Akkermansia muciniphila MucT is a patented, clinically studied, pasteurized form of Akkermansia muciniphila, a naturally occurring bacterium associated with a healthy gut barrier and metabolic health. Unlike a live probiotic, MucT is heat-treated to create a stable postbiotic while preserving key bioactive components.*
Why it matters: MucT provides targeted support for gut barrier function, insulin sensitivity, healthy metabolism, and maintaining a healthy weight following weight loss from a reduced-calorie diet.*
Pomegranate extract is naturally rich in polyphenols, including punicalagins and ellagitannins. These plant compounds help support gut barrier function to benefit the gut environment where Akkermansia naturally thrives.*
Why it matters: Pairing pomegranate polyphenols with MucT provides complementary support for the gut environment, helping reinforce the connection between gut barrier health and healthy metabolism.*
