I searched the site but have not seen any discussion around this probiotic specific to CD. Does anyone have any insights they can share? I am currently on Entyvio and adhere to a diet that eliminates fructose, sorbitol and manitol as fodmaps that cause me symptoms. All of this has helped but I still find I have challenges daily (for me primarily pain, especially with exercise) so am looking at additional options to help.
Probiotic: AKKERMANSIA MUCINIPHILA

if the capsule isn't gelatin, buy empty gelatin caps and re-encapsulate them.Synthetic Capsule materials are bad for the microbiome.
Sorry for the terribly late response. I order it from Pendulum online, heard about it from Peter Attia podcast. It has helped me more than any prescription medication I’ve ever taken. Truly.
Let me add, if you listen to the podcast, it seems fairly important to order it from a very reputable company like pendulum.. (it’s fairly unstable and needs a detailed processing). It is expensive, even if you sign up for a reoccurring subscription, but if it helps you, it is worth every penny. I’ll attach a link to the podcast. I hope it helps.
