PendulumAkkermansia Probiotic with Prebiotic Fiber - Increases GLP-1 Production, Delayed Release, Third-Party Tested, 100M AFU Live Strain for Gut Health for Men & Women (30 Capsules, 1-Pack)

Great product. Seems like I have more energy and I am not as hungry so curbing my appetite.

Item arrived on time and it seems to be working as advertised. I have no issues using the restroom! I feel good.

My digestion is so much better. Coupled with L reitire yogurt I have lost wet around my waist

Great product that makes a difference in how I feel

Akkermansia is all the rage because it’s found in the guts of skinny people. This is too expensive in my humble opinion for a single organism product though. If I take a probiotic, I want multiple organisms offered in the formulation. Also, I guess it never quite colonizes in the gut…so you have to keep buying it!

I've taken other pro- & pre-biotics from other companies like RenewLife and Garden of life, and Physicians Choice but they never made me feel like this. I've had IBS since high school (I'm 44) managed well with diet and supplements, and I recently had my gallbladder removed, so I'm on an even more modified diet of lots of veggies, fish, chicken, water - no fried food, dairy, gluten, or sodas. I'm really careful about what I put in my body. I decided to give this a try because how could Storm be wrong?Welp, after daily consumption for 2 weeks I had to stop. The gas, explosive elimination, the cramps, the nausea - it was like I had my gallbladder back with colitis to boot. It only exasperated my gut issues and I have a food & medication journal, so I knew what the cause was. It may work for some, but unfortunately not for me.Another issue was the expiration date - the FAQ says it is considered expired 6 months after the printed MFC date, mine was 12/2022, so technically it expired in June 2023. So, there's that. And btw this is non-refundable so it was a costly experiment but, I guess I can thank them for the unplanned & unpleasant cleanse I received before my vacation. Lol

My dietician recommended Akkermansia based on my levels being low on a GI panel. Akkermansia is an important marker of a healthy gut microbiome. It’s been said to: strengthen gut lining, protect from metabolic inflammation, improve metabolic profile, and decrease insulin resistance. Pendulum helps to replenish this keystone strain of bacteria by providing live Akkermansia. This is pretty neat because this wasn’t a strain that was available in supplement form before. The bottle does say to refrigerate for optimal quality. I just started taking it, so I haven’t noticed a difference yet because this takes a little while to start building up in your system and start working, but I’m excited to see how it benefits me!

Seems to curb my appetite some. However, had anyone else broken out in rash? This happened anout 1.5 weeks after I started it. i haven't used anything else new drug, supplement or topical.
