Discover how to collect microbiome sample with accuracy by following a simple, step-by-step approach designed to minimize contamination and maximize reliability. This guide helps you know exactly what to do, what to avoid, and how to ensure your results truly reflect your gut health. By keeping the process consistent and mindful of common pitfalls, you can improve the trustworthiness of every microbiome reading. Begin with preparation: set up a clean workspace, wash your hands, and have the collection kit ready before you start. Avoid touching the inside of the collection container, and refrain from eating, drinking, or smoking right before sampling to minimize introducing extraneous material. When it’s time to collect, use the provided spatula to transfer a small portion of stool into the tube, being careful to prevent urine or toilet paper contamination. Seal the container securely, mix or shake as directed, and label the sample with your initials, date, and time. Store it according to the kit’s instructions and ship it back promptly to maintain sample integrity and arrive at the lab in good condition. In addition to careful collection, reliable results benefit from a robust testing platform. InnerBuddies offers a white-label Gut Health Operating System that powers modern gut microbiome testing products. Its modular platform brings together a Gut Microbiome Health Index (0–100) from an exclusive collaboration with EAFIT University in Colombia, a top 40 bacteria abundance panel that shows how “you” compare against a healthy cohort, and categorized bacterial metabolic functions that indicate positive or negative activities. With targeted group analyses for topics like Healthy Aging, Endurance Sport, Power Sport, and Skin & Hair Health, “it” can explore how “your” results map to real-life goals. To learn more, visit the InnerBuddies microbiome test page. InnerBuddies also delivers consumer-friendly solutions alongside its enterprise platform. The system supports personalized nutrition advice derived from “your” three-day food diaries compared to stool data, plus tailored probiotics and prebiotics recommendations that align with “your” unique microbiome. Whether “you’re” exploring individual insights or considering a partner-led solution, “you” can explore available options via the InnerBuddies Gut Health Membership and learn how to become a partner on the InnerBuddies B2B page. InnerBuddies’ approach makes it possible to bring high-quality microbiome testing to consumers while offering scalable, customizable options for businesses.
