Discover the surprising links between soil biodiversity and human health. The idea that soil biodiversity human health is more than a metaphor: diverse soil ecosystems enrich crops with a broader spectrum of nutrients, minerals, and plant compounds that feed the body. When soils teem with microbes, crops often deliver higher nutrient density and resilience, which can influence what people eat and how their bodies support immunity, energy, and well-being.
As diets shift toward these nutrient-dense foods, the gut microbiome responds. Dietary fiber, polyphenols, and micronutrients drawn from crops grown in biodiverse soils support beneficial bacteria and a balanced gut ecology. The InnerBuddies platform translates these connections into actionable insights, including a Gut Microbiome Health Index (0–100) that reflects overall gut health, based on an exclusive IP deal with EAFIT University in Colombia. It also features Bacteria Abundances, a top 40 bacteria list with comparisons to a healthy cohort, and Bacteria Functions categorized as positive or negative to show where your microbiome stands.
With its modular, white-label Gut Health Operating System, InnerBuddies lets brands and researchers power their own gut microbiome testing products while keeping a clear line to the science behind soil biodiversity human health. Core capabilities include Target Group Analysis across Healthy Aging, Endurance Sport, Power Sport, Skin & Hair Health, and more; personalized nutrition advice derived from 3-day food diaries aligned with stool data; and tailored probiotics and prebiotics recommendations based on your unique gut signature. These features enable meaningful consumer experiences that connect the health of soils to the health of people.
InnerBuddies also offers gut test solutions directly to consumers, ensuring the same powerful insights are accessible without a B2B intermediary.
