Discover how probiotics and prebiotics work to boost digestion, immunity, and gut health today with science-backed tips and a practical action plan. Probiotics are live beneficial bacteria, while prebiotics are the fibers and compounds that feed those microbes. When used together, they help restore balance in the gut, improve stool consistency, and support immune function. A science-backed approach means starting with real data, tracking changes, and making targeted adjustments rather than relying on one-size-fits-all advice.
InnerBuddies brings this approach to life with a powerful white-label Gut Health Operating System that companies can use to power their own gut microbiome testing products. Its Gut Microbiome Health Index provides a score from 0 to 100 that reflects overall gut health, based on an exclusive IP deal with EAFIT University in Colombia. You’ll also find a top 40 list of bacteria—both beneficial and potentially problematic—and clear comparisons against a healthy cohort to show where you stand. In addition, InnerBuddies categorizes bacterial metabolic functions into positive and negative groups and shows how you compare on each functional pathway, helping you understand the levers that drive digestion and immunity. For those with specific goals, Target Group analysis dives into how the gut microbiome supports Healthy Aging, Endurance Sport, Skin & Hair Health, and more. If you’re looking for personalized guidance, the platform offers personalized nutrition advice and tailored probiotics and prebiotics recommendations that match your unique gut profile.
A practical action plan starts with data-driven steps. Use integrated tools to review your 3-day food diaries alongside stool samples to see how individual foods influence your gut microbiome. Based on your results, InnerBuddies can provide personalized probiotics and prebiotics advice, pinpointing specific strains and fiber sources that support your objectives and balance. Start small with daily fiber-rich foods such as certain fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, then layer in targeted probiotic strains that your system responds to best. Regularly reassess with updated microbiome insights to refine your plan and track improvements in digestion and immune markers.
