Why Your Gut Health Deserves Attention
This test is ideal for:
- Anyone experiencing bloating, irregular digestion or food sensitivities.
- Individuals looking to optimise gut health and overall wellness.
- Those with a history of digestive issues, IBS, or inflammatory conditions.
- People interested in personalised nutrition and microbiome insights.
Core Microbiome Composition
Top Bacterial Phyla: Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, Verrucomicrobia
Balance Overview: Compares your microbiome to reference ranges to determine increases or decreases in key groups.
Microbiome Health Metrics
Richness: Number of different species in your gut — higher richness indicates a more resilient microbiome.
Diversity: A diverse range of bacteria supports better digestion, immune function, and metabolic stability.
Evenness: Indicates whether bacterial populations are balanced or dominated by certain strains.
Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes Ratio: A common marker for metabolic health; linked to weight regulation and digestion.
Functional Bacteria Analysis
Butyrate-Producing Bacteria: These support gut lining integrity, reduce inflammation, and may protect against colon cancer.
Includes Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, Roseburia, Eubacterium rectale, etc.
Probiotic & Beneficial Bacteria
Evaluation of key probiotic strains such as Lactobacillus (e.g. acidophilus, rhamnosus) and Bifidobacterium (e.g. longum, bifidum), with reporting on their roles in digestion, immune support, and gut-brain axis functions related to mental well-being.
Pathogenic & Opportunistic Microorganisms
Evaluation of pathogenic and opportunistic microorganisms, including:
– Bacteria such as Clostridium difficile, Helicobacter pylori, Salmonella, Shigella, toxic strains of E. coli, and Campylobacter jejuni
– Fungi such as Candida albicans
– Protozoa including Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica, and Cryptosporidium spp.
– Viruses such as Norovirus and Rotavirus with reporting on their potential to disrupt gut health or contribute to infection and inflammation.
Microbiome-Disease Associations
Analysis of correlations between gut microbiota composition and a spectrum of clinically relevant conditions, including:
– Gastrointestinal disorders such as IBS, IBD, Crohn’s disease, and Ulcerative Colitis
– Metabolic syndromes including obesity, type 1 and 2 diabetes, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
– Autoimmune conditions such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and systemic lupus erythematosus.
– Cardiovascular risk factors including hypercholesterolemia and hypertension.
– Neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders including anxiety, depression, and Alzheimer’s disease.
– Dietary intolerances such as gluten and lactose sensitivity.
with detailed reporting on microbial signatures associated with increased or decreased risk profiles.
Personalised Recommendations
Includes tailored advice for:
-Diet: Fibre-rich foods, probiotics, prebiotics.
-Lifestyle: Sleep, stress management, physical activity.
-Supplements: Where relevant, based on microbial deficiencies.
