Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to David Jemal. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

David, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today So let’s jump to your mission – what’s the backstory behind how you developed the mission that drives your brand?

At Akkermy, we’re here to make health a journey you can actually enjoy. It all started with a simple belief—that everyone deserves a real shot at better health. On our own wellness journeys, we learned that lasting vitality starts in the gut, which is why we dedicated ourselves to finding natural, effective solutions that make a difference.

Fueled by our passion and determination, we created Akkermy—a probiotic that goes beyond the typical promises. Our formula doesn’t just support weight management; it nurtures a healthy, balanced gut, which we believe is the foundation of true wellness.

Our mission is personal: to empower you to take control of your health in a way that inspires you, not overwhelms you.

For Those New to Akkermy: Who We Are and What Sets Us Apart

Akkermy was founded on a simple belief: everyone deserves a real shot at better health, starting from the inside out. Our team came together from diverse wellness backgrounds, united by our experiences with the challenges of finding natural, reliable solutions for gut health and overall well-being. This journey led us to Akkermansia—a powerful microorganism known for its essential role in maintaining a balanced gut. Along with Bacillus coagulans, a resilient probiotic strain, we developed Akkermy to address the foundation of wellness: a healthy, balanced gut.

Our formula combines Akkermansia and Bacillus coagulans with essential vitamins B and D, as well as the mineral chromium, creating a complete approach to gut health and vitality. Akkermy is crafted to deliver these key benefits:

Supports Weight Management
Enhances Metabolic Health
Boosts Natural GLP-1 Levels (key for appetite control and blood sugar balance)
Strengthens the Gut Barrier
Boosts Immune Defense
Reduces Digestive Discomfort

What makes Akkermy different? Our formula is rooted in science and crafted with purpose, so it integrates seamlessly into your daily routine to provide real, lasting benefits. Each ingredient is carefully chosen and backed by research, creating a balanced approach to wellness that our customers can trust.

At Akkermy, we’re most proud of the trust our community places in us and the impact our product has in helping people feel their best. If you’re looking for a wellness partner that values integrity, quality, and transparency, Akkermy is here to support you on your journey to health—one gut at a time.

How did you put together the initial capital you needed to start your business?

Raising initial capital was a thrilling and challenging experience for our team. We knew we had a groundbreaking product with Akkermansia, but we needed the right funding to bring it to market. We started by crafting a compelling investor pitch deck, highlighting the science behind our product, market opportunity, competitive advantage, and business model. We honed our message and practiced our pitch until it felt seamless.

Next, we set up meetings with potential investors, leveraging our network and attending industry events to connect with the right people. Our pitch was met with enthusiasm and interest, and we secured meetings with several promising leads.

During our pitches, we emphasized the unique benefits of Akkermansia, our team’s expertise, and the vast market potential. We also demonstrated our product’s effectiveness through early trial results and customer testimonials.

After several rounds of pitching and negotiations, we secured the initial funding we needed to launch our business. It was a moment of pure elation and relief! We’re grateful for the support of our early investors and are proud to have built a business that’s now making a real difference in people’s lives.

Can you tell us the story behind how you met your business partner?

Our journey began with a shared belief: that everyone deserves a shot at better health, free from confusing claims and empty promises. Each of us had our own ups and downs on our wellness journeys, and we realized that finding natural, effective solutions that truly work is much harder than it should be.

Through countless conversations, we discovered we shared the same vision of what wellness could and should look like—lasting vitality, effective weight management, and, above all, a happy, healthy gut. We knew that gut health was the key to overall well-being, yet the market was filled with products that just didn’t deliver.

Fueled by this shared determination, we made a pact: we would create a probiotic that goes beyond just talk. We wanted something that truly walks the walk by supporting people from the inside out, starting at the very core of health. That commitment drove us to create Akkermy—a product designed to empower people to achieve better health in a natural, effective way.
