Understanding the Natural Scent of Codeage Akkermansia 500 Ultra

At Codeage, we prioritize both quality and transparency in everything we do. One of the questions we occasionally receive from customers pertains to the natural scent of our Codeage Akkermansia 500 Ultra supplement. Some users have reported that the product has a mild smell reminiscent of old flour or a slightly fermented aroma, and wonder if this is normal.

We’d like to provide clarity and reassurance.

What’s Inside the Formula

Codeage Akkermansia 500 Ultra is a high-potency probiotic supplement featuring 500 million AFUs of Akkermansia muciniphila* per capsule. This unique formulation is paired with chicory inulin, a plant-based soluble fiber known for its prebiotic properties. Together, these ingredients offer a comprehensive probiotic and prebiotic blend designed for daily gut health support.

Why Does It Smell That Way?

Because the formula includes fermented ingredients and plant-based fibers, a natural scent may be present. This is not an indication of spoilage or reduced quality. In fact, slight earthy or fermented smells are common with high-quality, live probiotic and prebiotic ingredients—especially in formulas that do not contain artificial masking agents or added fragrances.

Quality Assurance

Each bottle of Codeage Akkermansia 500 Ultra is:

  • Manufactured in the USA in a cGMP-certified facility

  • Vegan, non-GMO, and free from dairy, soy, and gluten

  • Packaged to deliver quality and purity with a 3-month supply, one capsule daily

It’s important to store the supplement in a cool, dry place and keep it away from direct sunlight to maintain its stability. If the product has been properly stored and is still within its shelf life, a mild natural scent should not be cause for concern.

When to Reach Out

While a subtle, earthy scent is expected, we encourage customers to contact our support team if they notice anything unusual—such as changes in color, capsule texture, or integrity. Our team is always here to provide assistance and ensure your satisfaction with our products.

Your trust in Codeage means everything to us. We remain committed to delivering cutting-edge formulas with transparency and care.
