Polyflora + Multifunction Probiotic with Akkermansia (Blood Type B)

No. Polyflora Pre/Probiotic is a blood-type specific supplement that supports overall gut health and intestinal balance. It is a personalized supplement for each blood type with formulas available for each blood type: O, A, B and AB.

You must know your blood type to find the Polyflora + formula that’s best for you. The Home Blood-Typing Kit is an easy way to get started. It works in under 10 minutes to reveal your results right at home.

Directions: Two (2) capsules two (2) times daily with meals as a dietary supplement or as directed by a physician. Polyflora + helps promote healthy digestion and supports your gut microbiome with a blood-type-specific probiotic formula.

This depends on what you’re looking to achieve, but on average it takes several weeks for your probiotic to make a difference.

Minimum Duration: Test a probiotic for at least 2-4 weeks before assessing its effectiveness. Individual Response: Some may notice benefits sooner, but consistent use over a few weeks provides a better evaluation. Adjust as Needed: If no improvement is observed over time, consulting a healthcare professional for guidance is advisable.

Much like Polyflora + is not one-size-fits-all, each individual’s goals may vary along with the duration. Acute Issues: Relief for gut discomfort and bloating may be noticed in as little as a few days. Ongoing Issues: Improvements to bigger problems caused by gut bacteria imbalance such as nutrient malabsorption and weight management can take several weeks to months. Individual Variation: Response time varies based on factors such as the probiotic strain, dosage, individual health and lifestyle choices.

Consistency Matters: Regular and consistent use of probiotics is often essential for sustained benefits. Remember, results vary but it’s important to give your probiotics time to help balance your gut microbiome.

Polyflora + combines unique prebiotics and targeted probiotics to support digestive health. Dr. Peter D’Adamo selected bacteria beneficial for each blood type plus added Akkermansia postbiotic, a keystone bacterium. Akkermansia postbiotic provides support for the growth of virtually all other “friendly flora” in your microbiome; without it, the whole ecosystem suffers.

• Prebiotics are nutrients that foster the growth of healthy intestinal flora, AKA probiotics. Together, they work synergistically to assist in proper digestive system function.
• Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that aid in the microbiome’s intestinal balance to support healthy digestion and wellness.
• As a postbiotic, Akkermansia provides bioactive compounds to strengthen the gut lining. These bioactive compounds hold and support the structure, and assist in overall gut health and weight loss.

Prebiotics and probiotics work together. Prebiotics act as a food source for the healthy bacteria in your stomach AKA probiotics. The result is stronger “good bacteria” in the gut.

There are many benefits of taking prebiotics and probiotics:

• Assists in gut bacteria balance to promote healthy digestion
• May decrease bloating, gas and upset stomach
• Aids in better nutrient absorption and weight control
• Helps support immune system function
• And more

When scientists culture a desirable bacteria they can then harvest its bioactive components for therapeutic use. This is known as a postbiotic. Postbiotic supplementation is very much at the forefront of microbiome technology as it provides the exact therapeutic effect of the desired bacteria.

Akkermansia’s full name is Akkermansia muciniphila, which means “mucin loving.” That’s because Akkermansia's favorite meal is the mucous membrane of your intestinal lining. But in exchange for food, Akkermansia’s mucin consumption actually stimulates increased mucin production by intestinal cells, leaving a fresh and regularly regenerated gut lining.

This robust gut lining is a critical protector of the immune system that lies right below the single-cell lining of the gut. A thick mucin layer adds additional protection between the food and bacterial antigens and the underlying immune system.

Akkermansia also promotes a "tolerogenic" immune system. It secretes enzymes that engender a more neutral immune response, allowing us to be less reactive to foods we eat and more tolerant of minor insults that we incur on a daily basis.

Akkermansia is a metabolic celebrity. This bacteria supports proper insulin/glucose response, and is a "leanness" associated bacteria. This association is likely due to Akkermansia's role promoting GLP-1 secretion, an incretin hormone that promotes insulin sensitivity and healthy blood sugar levels.

It's very difficult to stabilize Akkermansia as an encapsulated probiotic that will survive the manufacturing process. However in our Polyflora + it's available as a postbiotic, where its bioactive ingredients have been extracted and incorporated into the formula, allowing for higher concentrations than would be possible from the live bacteria itself. And so as a postbiotic, the Akkermansia in our Polyflora + is more stable and able to provide all its inherent benefits.

The Blood Type Diet is a lifestyle guide that helps you determine which foods are best for you based on your genetic makeup. Naturally occurring proteins from foods on your Avoid list (AKA lectins) can attach to your digestive tract and wreak havoc, causing inflammation, gas, bloating, water retention, weight gain, headaches, fatigue, hormonal imbalance and more.

In addition, your ABO profile provides insight on how you can best handle stress, manage weight and plan strategies for overall health and wellbeing. Dr. Peter D’Adamo outlines the basics in his New York Times best-selling book, Eat Right 4 Your Type.
