This personalised approach empowers you to enhance gut health, supporting improved digestion, energy levels, and a stronger immune system. Let’s work together towards a healthier, balanced microbiome for long-term wellness.

The Microbiomix Metagenomic Mapping test utilises metagenomic sequencing (shotgun) to analyse the genetic material of entire microbial communities in a stool sample. "Shotgun" refers to the random and unbiased sequencing of all genetic material, including DNA from bacteria, viruses, fungi, and other microorganisms. This comprehensive analysis covers over 28,000 microbial species, providing a more detailed picture than targeted approaches that focus on specific genes or organisms.

This unbiased sequencing method can reveal previously unknown or unculturable microorganisms, uncovering the full diversity of the microbiome. A simple stool sample provides detailed information on the microbiome and biochemical markers related to digestion, inflammation, intestinal permeability, and more.

Designed to assess a person's microbiome from a single stool sample, the

Microbiomix metagenomic microbiome mapping test focuses on microbes that cause disease or disrupt microbial balance, contributing to GI flora disturbances and illness.
