Benefits of Gut Microbiome Testing

•  Microbiome testing shows how diet, lifestyle, and environment impact gut health. •  Results provide a gut health score, indicating bacterial balance. •  A higher score suggests a healthy mix of microorganisms. •  A lower score may indicate issues like constipation or inflammation

Understanding Your Gut Health Score

Your gut health score indicates your digestive health. A high score means a healthy balance of bacteria, improving digestion, immunity, and overall well-being. A low score may highlight imbalances, causing bloating, constipation, or inflammation

Tailored Dietary Recommendations

Based on your gut health score, microbiome testing offers personalized dietary recommendations in two phases: 1. Initial Gut Restoration: Focus on eliminating harmful bacteria and restoring balance with fiber-rich foods, probiotics, and prebiotics. 2. Gut Maintenance: Sustain balance with a healthy diet, regular probiotics, and avoiding gut-disruptive foods.
