Gut Microbiome Pathways: How Microbes Shape Metabolism and Health

Discover how gut microbiome pathways shape metabolism and health. These pathways govern how microbes harvest energy from food, produce key metabolites, and influence digestion, immunity, and inflammation. By understanding which gut microbiome pathways are active, you can influence energy balance, nutrient absorption, and overall wellbeing through day-to-day choices. InnerBuddies offers a white-label Gut Health Operating System designed to power your own gut microbiome testing products. The modular platform includes a Gut Microbiome Health Index—a 0 to 100 score indicating gut health, built on an exclusive IP agreement with EAFIT University in Colombia. It also surfaces Bacteria abundances with a top 40 panel, showing how you compare against a healthy cohort, and Bacteria functions that are categorized as positive or negative to reveal your standing on key metabolic pathways. For deeper insight, Target Group analysis dives into how gut microbiome pathways matter for specific groups—Healthy Aging, Endurance Sport, Power Sport, Skin & Hair Health, and more—demonstrating how you score on the functional pathways most relevant to those goals. Complementing this, personalized nutrition advice uses data from 3-day food diaries alongside stool samples to tailor recommendations to your unique gut microbiome composition. And with personalized probiotics and prebiotics guidance, you receive strain-level and functional advice aligned with your objectives and your microbiome profile. InnerBuddies also offers consumer-facing gut test solutions, so all the capabilities available to B2B partners are accessible directly to individuals.
