Our  analysis offers insights into both beneficial and harmful microbial activities within your gut, detecting signs of inflammation. Chronic inflammation can harm the gut lining and raise the likelihood of digestive issues. We assess the richness and diversity of your microbiome and pinpoint any imbalances impacting digestion.

With this understanding of your gut's microbial activity, we can guide you in making specific dietary adjustments to enhance your digestive well-being. Our recommendations strive to enhance nutrient absorption, increase microbiome diversity, and support gut lining health.

The gut microbiome plays a crucial role in producing and metabolizing various hormones and neurotransmitters that regulate metabolism, including leptin, ghrelin, and serotonin. Additionally, the microbiome can influence the breakdown and absorption of dietary nutrients such as carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, impacting energy metabolism and body weight.

We measure active microbial organisms and functions associated with macronutrient breakdown and other patterns around digestion, along with blood sugar, insulin resistance, and weight control. By analyzing the activity of your gut microbiome, we can identify any imbalances that may be affecting your metabolic health and make personalized recommendations to optimize your nutrition and support healthy weight management.

Your gut microbiome is crucial in regulating the body's circadian rhythm, the internal biological clock that helps regulate our sleep-wake cycle, hormone production, and other physiological processes. The gut microbiome also produces neurotransmitters and hormones that influence your circadian rhythm, such as serotonin for regulating sleep and mood and melatonin for regulating the sleep-wake cycle.

Our analysis focuses on specific microbial activities that impact your body's ability to produce and utilize these important neurotransmitters and hormones. We look for serotonin production-assisting pathways and microbial activities that contribute to the production of GABA, both of which are essential for regulating sleep and mood. We also identify activities that may negatively impact your ability to fall and stay asleep. These activities could include inflammation or imbalances in gut microbiota that produce harmful substances that affect brain function.

Our test provides valuable insights into your cardiovascular and heart health by analyzing the activity of your microbial and human gene expressions. Your gut microbiome plays a vital role in cardiovascular health through its impact on inflammation, cholesterol metabolism, and blood pressure regulation. While managing cholesterol is important, many other factors can contribute to poor cardiovascular health, including oxidative stress, endothelial function, kidney function, and vitamin and mineral status.

Our analysis looks at specific indicators of high oxidative stress and activities that promote inflammation, both of which can have a significant impact on your cardiovascular and heart health. We also analyze your gut microbiome's impact on vascular health and cholesterol metabolism, two critical factors in maintaining a healthy heart.
