Sauerkraut contains predominantly lactobacilli which play key roles in sustaining a healthy microbiome, but they don't have the same capabilities as Akkermansia. Those capabilities include maintaining the mucin layer, immune modulation, and stimulation of GLP-1 secretion.

Current research hasn't actually determined the relationship between elevated Akkermansia muciniphila levels and disease activity in MS. There's even evidence that suggests that Akkermansia may help those with MS:
This study suggests that the microbiome, particularly Akkermansia muciniphila, could play a role in restricting tumor growth by activating the immune system. Exciting news, but mouse models have limitations, so further research in humans is warranted.

What is akkermansia muciniphila? 🤔
This beneficial bacteria has gotten a lot of attention lately. This strain helps regulate the mucin lining of the gut which protects your gut lining (and ultimately the immune system).

There are ways to naturally increase Akkermansia. Unfortunately, some people have 0 Akkermansia in their gut microbiome. Pendulum Akkermansia is the ONLY supplement with the live Akkermansia muciniphila they need to reintroduce to their gut microbiome.
