Chasing Akkermansia

I’m chasing akkermansia I’m racing to the health shop Hopping from aisle to aisle So that I can find some beneficial bacteria I need more akkermansia So I have to change my food! This is essential to the quality of life Walnuts could help me and Set me free of the bad bacteria Pomegranate juice and Cranberry Juice could pave the way I know that sugar can destroy the good bacteria While akkermansia can help me get rid of some toxins! I’m looking for sauerkraut in aisle one This might be quite fun To my left, Kimchi shouts at me While the apple cider vinegar points to me Further down I see the dill fermented cucumbers All of it appears to be sour but I realize that This could be the power in the gut for transformation! In the end, I need more akkermansia So I have to change my food! This is essential to the quality of life Mark Frank Copyright 2022
