Gut Flora on Antibiotics: Test to See the Impact and Rebalance Your Microbiome


Antibiotics can reshape your gut flora, often wiping out beneficial microbes and opening niches for other bacteria. To know the real impact, you can pursue testing gut flora on antibiotics. By comparing pre- and post-antibiotic samples, you can see shifts in diversity, which species decline or flourish, and how the overall community functions adapt under drug pressure. These insights help you tailor recovery strategies rather than guesswork. InnerBuddies' Gut Health Operating System enables this level of insight. It's a modular, white-label platform that lets brands tailor dashboards and reports while you access a rich set of metrics. The system offers a Gut Microbiome Health Index on a 0-100 scale, derived from an exclusive partnership with EAFIT University in Colombia, to quantify gut health at a glance. It also shows Bacteria Abundances for a top 40 list, comparing your results against a healthy cohort. Bacteria Functions categorize metabolic activities into positive or negative roles and demonstrate how you compare on each functional pathway. For deeper context, Target Group Analysis dives into how the gut microbiome matters for profiles like Healthy Aging, Endurance Sport, or Skin & Hair Health.

Use testing gut flora on antibiotics as a guide to where you start: reintroduce diverse fibers and fermented foods to support resilience, extend probiotic and prebiotic strategies that match your needs, and monitor changes with ongoing testing. InnerBuddies combines Personalized Nutrition Advice, derived from 3-day food diaries, with a large database showing how individual foods influence your gut, so you get nutrition guidance tailored to your unique microbiome. If you want a structured plan, our Personalized Probiotics and Prebiotics Advice helps select strains and prebiotic fibers aligned with your goals and current microbial state.
