Gut Microbiome Functions: How Your Microbes Shape Digestion, Immunity, and Health

Discover how your gut microbiome functions power digestion, boost immunity, and support health. InnerBuddies offers a white-label Gut Health Operating System that lets brands build and power their own gut microbiome testing products. This modular platform brings together a suite of features designed to illuminate gut microbiome functions in daily life: a Gut Microbiome Health Index (0-100) derived from an exclusive IP deal with EAFIT University in Colombia; a top 40 bacteria abundances panel showing how you compare to a healthy cohort; a categorized map of bacterial metabolic functions labeled as positive or negative; and Target Group analyses that tailor findings for Healthy Aging, Endurance Sport, Skin & Hair Health, and more. You can explore how the system works on our product page: InnerBuddies product page. Beyond a single score, understanding gut microbiome functions means looking at the full biological story. InnerBuddies presents the Top 40 bacteria abundances and a clear comparison against a healthy cohort, so you can see where your gut microbiome functions to support digestion and immunity are thriving or need support. The platform also breaks down bacterial metabolic functions into positive and negative categories, letting you compare your functional profile to the healthy reference and identify practical steps. For brands and researchers ready to collaborate, we offer a white-label path via our B2B program: InnerBuddies B2B page. Because goals differ from person to person, InnerBuddies includes Target Group analysis that dives into gut microbiome functions relevant for specific audiences—Healthy Aging, Endurance Sport, Power Sport, Skin & Hair Health, and more—plus a transparent pathway score for each functional category. Add personalized nutrition advice using data from 3-day food diaries compared with stool samples, drawing on a growing database of how individual foods impact the gut microbiome. The result is tailored guidance—from nutrition tweaks to probiotic and prebiotic selections—that can be delivered to consumers on our platform or integrated into partner offerings. If you want ongoing access, check out the InnerBuddies subscription page: InnerBuddies subscription page. InnerBuddies brings gut test solutions directly to consumers while also providing a robust white-label platform for partners. All options available to B2B partners are also available to consumers, from individual testing to ongoing microbiome management.
