Danone further invests in gut health and next-generation probiotic research
Danone announced the acquisition of The Akkermansia Company (TAC), a Belgian company with nearly 20 years of history and science, specialising in biotics.
In 2004, using state-of-the-art technology, scientists at TAC discovered and developed a biotic strain, Akkermansia muciniphila MucT. They clinically demonstrated its power to reinforce the gut barrier, reduce inflammation, and counteract metabolic disorders such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
Expanding deeper into gut health is a key facet of Danone’s Renew strategy, as it doubles down on science and innovation, and as consumer interest in healthy products continues to rise.
