You hear people talk about metabolism all the time, “fast” metabolisms, “slow” metabolisms...but what is metabolism exactly?
The metabolic process is complex, but the concept is simple. Your metabolism is how your body converts food into energy. And it never stops, even when you’re not doing anything. Your metabolism constantly works to provide energy for everything your body does, from breathing to blood circulation to digesting food and regulating your body temperature.
tl;dr—your metabolism is pretty important to overall health.
Of course, certain factors like age, muscle mass, and physical activity can affect your metabolism, which means that there are lifestyle changes you can make to both negatively affect your metabolism, such as smoking, and positively affect your metabolism. Here’s a list of simple changes you can make to improve your metabolism…
How to boost your metabolism
Of course, that’s just a short list of easy things you can do to help your metabolism. We know how important metabolic health is to our customers. Here at Pendulum, we’re constantly hearing from people asking how they can easily boost their metabolism and maintain healthy blood sugars. So we took their questions and requests into consideration and went to work researching and developing a new probiotic blend that optimizes your metabolism.
Introducing Metabolic Daily.
What is Metabolic Daily?
Metabolic Daily is a live, multi-strain probiotic formulated by PhD doctors and scientists from Johns Hopkins, Harvard, Berkeley, and Stanford who know that beneficial gut microbes directly influence energy metabolism. Basically, your gut microbiome regulates your metabolism by breaking down sugar, carbs, and fats. Metabolic Daily naturally replenishes your gut microbiome to optimize your metabolism and support a healthy weight.
But that’s not all.
This targeted formula also helps break down fiber and produces beneficial postbiotics and hormones, such as butyrate and GLP-1, which help maintain blood sugar levels. The result? Less sugar cravings and crashes—just balanced, sustained energy throughout the day.
What probiotic strains are in Metabolic Daily?
Glad you asked, because we couldn’t be prouder of the answer.
Akkermansia muciniphila, a Pendulum exclusive strain
This highly targeted single strain anaerobic probiotic has been shown to improve overall gut health, strengthen gut lining, and boost metabolism. Pendulum holds the patent on producing this strain; live Akkermansia is unavailable anywhere else.
Clostridium butyricum
Naturally found in the human gastrointestinal tract, this strain is named for its ability to produce high amounts of the short-chain fatty acid butyrate. It has been associated with digestion support and immune health.
Clostridium beijerinckii, a Pendulum exclusive strain
This novel strain produces the short-chain fatty acid butyrate, which helps the body process sugar and nourish the gut lining.
Anaerobutyricum hallii, a Pendulum exclusive strain
This is another strain known to produce the short-chain fatty acid butyrate, helping the body process sugar and nourish the gut lining.
Bifidobacterium infantis
This strain breaks down a range of foods and produces the intermediate molecules that are used by butyrate-producing strains. It also helps maintain a healthy gastrointestinal tract and alleviates digestive issues.
So whether you have a “fast” metabolism or a “slow” metabolism, Metabolic Daily is an easy once-daily capsule that reduces sugar cravings and slumps, boosts sugar and carb metabolism, produces butyrate and GLP-1, and helps support a healthy weight.
In short, Metabolic Daily helps kickstart your body to do more with the food you eat. Who knew that one little probiotic could do so much?
