Areas where InnerBuddies gut microbiome testing can make a significant impact

• Digestive Health

  Gut discomfort like bloating, constipation, gas, or diarrhea often stems from an imbalance in gut bacteria. InnerBuddies analyzes the composition and diversity of your gut microbiome, identifying specific imbalances such as low fiber-fermenting bacteria or an overgrowth of gas-producing microbes.

  By pinpointing the root causes of digestive issues, InnerBuddies provides personalized, evidence-based recommendations to support digestion. Whether through targeted diet changes, prebiotics, or probiotics, users can take actionable steps to restore harmony and improve GI comfort.

• Immune Function

  Over 80% of the immune system resides in the gut, and a diverse microbiome plays a key role in training immune cells to respond appropriately. InnerBuddies helps users assess their microbiome’s ability to support immune balance and resilience.

  Low microbial diversity or the presence of inflammatory bacteria may indicate a weakened defense system. InnerBuddies delivers tailored suggestions—like anti-inflammatory foods or immune-supportive nutrients—to help build a stronger, more balanced immune response.

• Mental Health & Mood (Gut-Brain Axis)

  Emerging research shows that your microbiome influences neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and GABA, directly affecting mood and stress levels. InnerBuddies evaluates gut-brain axis markers to explore how your microbes may be impacting your mental well-being.

  With insight into bacterial strains associated with anxiety, depression, or stress resilience, InnerBuddies can guide personalized strategies to help improve emotional balance—ranging from fiber-rich diets to psychobiotic supplements.
