Abstract

The present disclosure provides methods, systems, compositions, and kits to address the need for microbiome-related treatment of health conditions and disease. The present disclosure provides for treatment of metabolic conditions using microbial compositions.

Claims (31)

1. A dosage form comprising:

a) a first microbe comprising a 16S rRNA sequence comprising at least 97% sequence identity to a 16S rRNA sequence of Akkermansia muciniphila,

b) a second microbe comprising a 16S rRNA sequence comprising at least 97% sequence identity to a 16S rRNA sequence of Eubacterium hallii , and

c) a third microbe comprising a 16S rRNA sequence comprising at least 97% sequence identity to a 16S rRNA sequence of Clostridium beijerinckii;

wherein said dosage form comprises:

an enteric coating, or

an effective amount of a preservative.

2. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said dosage form comprises at least 1×10 5 CFUs of said first microbe.

3. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said dosage form comprises at least 1×10 5 CFUs of said second microbe.

4. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said dosage form is a unit dosage form.

5. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said dosage form is in a single capsule.

6. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said dosage form is a food bar.

7. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said dosage form further comprises one or more additional microbes selected from the group consisting of: Bifidobacterium adolescentis, Bifidobacterium infantis, Bifidobacterium longum, Clostridium indolis , and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii.

8. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said dosage form further comprises Bifidobacterium infantis.

9. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said third microbe is Clostridium beijerinckii.

10. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said first microbe is Akkermansia muciniphila.

11. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said second microbe is Eubacterium hallii.

12. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said microbes are in a powder form in said dosage form.

13. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said microbes are in a liquid form in said dosage form.

14. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said microbes are in a gel form in said dosage form.

15. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said dosage form does not contain dairy.

16. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said first microbe, said second microbe, or said third microbe are lyophilized.

17. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said dosage form is an oral dosage form.

18. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said dosage form comprises at least 1×10 5 CFUs of said third microbe.

19. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said dosage form comprises at least 1×10 7 CFUs of said first microbe, said second microbe, or said third microbe.

20. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said first microbe, said second microbe, or said third microbe has been grown on plant-based media.

21. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said 16S rRNA sequence of said first microbe comprises at least 99% sequence identity to said 16S rRNA sequence of Akkermansia muciniphila.

22. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said 16S rRNA sequence of said second microbe comprises at least 99% sequence identity to said 16S rRNA sequence of Eubacterium hallii.

23. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said 16S rRNA sequence of said third microbe comprises at least 99% sequence identity to said 16S rRNA sequence of Clostridium beijerinckii.

24. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said 16S rRNA sequence of said first microbe comprises at least 99% sequence identity to said 16S rRNA sequence of Akkermansia muciniphila , said 16S rRNA sequence of said second microbe comprises at least 99% sequence identity to said 16S rRNA sequence of Eubacterium hallii , and said 16S rRNA sequence of said third microbe comprises at least 99% sequence identity to said 16S rRNA sequence of Clostridium beijerinckii.

25. The dosage form of claim 1 , wherein said first microbe is Akkermansia muciniphila , said second microbe is Eubacterium hallii , and said third microbe is Clostridium beijerinckii.
