About Us

Kijimea – From Research. For Your Life. Since our founding in 2011, we have pursued a clear vision: we want to harness the potential of microbiota (bacteria) in our gut for a longer and healthier life – for everyone.

We achieved a first major milestone on this path in 2013 with the discovery and clinical research of the unique bacterial strain B. bifidum MIMBb75 (Kijimea Irritable Bowel Syndrome). Since then, we have been able to noticeably improve the lives of millions of irritable bowel syndrome patients worldwide. Today, B. bifidum MIMBb75 is one of the most extensively researched bacterial strains worldwide. Its efficacy and unique mechanism of action have been proven and published in numerous clinical studies – including in renowned journals such as The Lancet.

We collaborate with leading research institutions such as Charité Berlin to investigate the connections between microbiota (bacteria in our gut) and allergies, skin diseases, and psychological disorders. In short: we are investigating how the bacteria in our gut influence a longer and healthier life.

Today, we are among the fastest-growing healthcare companies worldwide. We reach our customers through various channels: direct communication with doctors and pharmacists, as well as print, TV, and digital marketing. To further expand our rapidly growing business in Europe, we are looking for outstanding talents to support us in this mission. Our goal is clearly defined: by 2028, we aim to make Kijimea the world's largest DTC probiotic brand, thereby giving over 50 million people a better life annually.
