Hacking Akkermansia: The Keystone Bacteria Critical to Gut Health and Longevity - GI-MAP Insights

Kara Fitzgerald, ND, IFMCP, and Tom Fabian, PhD, CNTP, discuss the keystone commensal biomarker, Akkermansia muciniphila, and how it impacts gut health and longevity. Akkermansia muciniphila plays a role in gut health, blood sugar regulation, GLP-1 production, gut-brain health, and more. Dr. Fitzgerald will dive into the research surrounding this exciting marker and discuss how clinicians should address high and low levels of Akkermansia seen on the GI-MAP’s quantitative report. Watch to learn: – Why Akkermansia is a keystone strain for health as we age – The connection between Akkermansia and metabolic health – How to tailor supplement and dietary protocols for patients using results from GI-MAP ============================= Visit https://www.diagnosticsolutionslab.co... for webinar handouts related to Low and High Akkermansiamuciniphila. ============================= Presented by Kara Fitzgerald, ND, IFMCP, and Tom Fabian, PhD, CNTP. Kara Fitzgerald, ND, IFMCP: Dr. Fitzgerald is actively engaged in clinical research on epigenetics and longevity using a diet and lifestyle intervention developed in her research and practice.
