| Main purpose |
Gut microbiome overview with personalized nutrition and supplement recommendations linked to your diary and stool results. |
Gut microbiome profiling designed to produce interpretive report outputs for consumer use. |
| Best for |
People who want understandable gut health insights plus actionable food and supplement guidance. |
People who want microbiome test results and are comfortable using the output to guide next steps. |
| Sample type |
Stool sample (paired with a 3-day food diary). |
Stool sample (exact pairing with diaries may vary by offer). |
| Analysis method |
16S DNA sequencing and Shotgun Metagenomics within an integrated “Gut Health Operating System” for longitudinal comparisons. |
DNA-based microbiome sequencing approach (exact method and scope should be confirmed on the product page). |
| What it measures |
Gut microbiome composition and ecosystem signals, used to support nutrition and supplement interpretation. |
Microbiome composition and related markers reported in the test’s format. |
| Pathogens included? |
Typically includes clinically relevant interpretation of microbes, but specific “pathogens list” coverage should be checked in the report details. |
May include pathogenic or clinically relevant findings depending on the test design; confirm included pathogen coverage. |
| Functional / microbiome balance insight |
Provides ecosystem/balance interpretation intended to support diet and probiotic/prebiotic choices. |
Often focuses on microbiome shifts and relative abundances as presented in its report. |
| Broad gut health overview |
Yes—designed for a broad overview of gut health and how your microbiome ecosystem may relate to it. |
Typically includes an overview section, but depth and framing vary by report format. |
| Personalized recommendations |
Yes—includes personalized nutrition and probiotic/prebiotic guidance based on your data. |
Often provides personalized or semi-personalized recommendations based on reported microbiome patterns. |
| Nutrition guidance included |
Yes—uses your 3-day food diary to generate individualized food recommendations with daily dosages. |

Variable—can be more report-led depending on how recommendations are structured. |
| Easy-to-understand report |
Designed to be easy to understand for consumers, with translation into practical guidance. |
