immy™ Featured in mindbodygreen: a Breakthrough in Bacterial Health

We are thrilled to announce our recent feature in leading publication mindbodygreen, where Dr. Charles Akle, our Chief Medical Officer, shares insights on the critical role the gut plays in immune function, mental health, and longevity. In the publication, Dr. Charles Akle explores how modern life has reduced gut diversity, and how introducing healthy ancient bacteria like Mycolicibacterium aurum Aogashima can restore balance, improve immunity, and enhance overall well-being.

We’ll summarize the key points from the publication and highlight lasting insights on how nurturing your gut health can be a game-changer for your immune system and your long-term vitality. Read on to learn how simple steps can support a healthier, more resilient body and mind.

The Gut Microbiome: Its Importance on Longevity

The gut is home to trillions of microorganisms, known as your gut microbiome. Your gut microbiome plays a pivotal role in immune function, mood regulation, and overall health. The diversity of your gut plays a pivotal role in maintaining a resilient immune system and supporting longevity. Unfortunately, modern life, with its sterilized environments and processed food, has reduced this diversity, affecting our health in ways that we’re only beginning to understand.

A diverse microbiome - comprising thousands of species - helps regulate immune responses and balance inflammation. The diversity of your gut is vital for immune function, as it enables your gut to defend against harmful microbes and support overall health and immune balance. However, factors like urban living, processed diets, and limited exposure to the microbes in nature, has lead to a decline in gut diversity. This weakens immunity and increases the risk of chronic diseases.

Reintroducing Ancient Bacteria:

One way to restore the diversity in your gut is by reintroducing ancient microorganisms. Mycolicibacterium aurum Aogashima (M.aurum), a bacterium found in soil and mud, can play a critical role in immune regulation, and overall gut health. Immy, a daily supplement, uses M.aurum to boost the microbiome and improve immune function. Akle compares the gut and the immune system to an orchestra, where M.aurum acts as the conductor, ensuring harmony.

Boosting Immunity and Mental Health

Taking immy daily can improve immune function by regulating negative inflammatory responses. A balanced microbiome supports a stronger immune system, which helps combat chronic inflammation. Additionally, by improving gut health, immy can positively impact mental health, stress resilience, and sleep quality, helping break the cycle of chronic stress and inflammation.

The Future of Gut Health

As the research on the microbiome advances, bacteria-based therapies are becoming increasingly important in treating chronic illnesses. M.aurum is an example of how ancient bacteria can support modern health, offering a natural and simple way to boost immunity, reduce inflammation, and improve overall well-being.

A Balanced Approach to Health

For better longevity, we need more than just a longer life - we need a healthier quality of life. By supporting gut diversity, adding beneficial bacteria like the one found in immy, and maintaining a balanced lifestyle, we can enhance our immune system, reduce inflammation, and enjoy better mental and physical health. As Dr. Akle advises, “Care for your immune system daily.”
