Generic advice wasn’t designed for your body.

Even if you eat well and exercise, your energy, digestion or wellbeing still might not feel right. The truth is that nutrition advice based only on age and gender misses what makes you unique: the trillions of microbes in your gut that influence how your body processes food, produces energy and supports your immune system.

Spending on supplements that may not work for you?

Not all probiotics and prebiotics benefit every person. Without knowing your specific microbial composition, supplementation is guesswork.

Tried a generic gut test with a report you couldn’t interpret?

Many microbiome tests deliver complex data with no expert to help translate results into practical, everyday changes.

Concerned about digestion, metabolism or energy levels?

Research increasingly links gut microbial imbalances, known as dysbiosis, to digestive issues, metabolic issues and even changes in mood.

Want to take a proactive approach to long-term health?

Understanding your gut microbiome today helps guide dietary choices that may reduce the risk of certain health conditions over time.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR GUT

Your gut microbiome: an ecosystem that shapes your health.

Your gut is home to trillions of microorganisms including bacteria, fungi and viruses. Together, they form a unique ecosystem, your gut microbiome, that helps break down food your body cannot digest alone. These microorganisms also produce essential vitamins and serotonin (often called the happy hormone) and interact closely with your immune system and gut lining.

Digestive health and nutrient processing

Fibre fermentation and metabolite production that support colon health and nutrient absorption.

Immune system development

Your gut microbes train and modulate immune responses, a core part of your body’s defence.
 

Metabolic signalling

Microbial metabolism interacts with energy balance and cardiometabolic pathways in your body.

Gut-brain axis

Microbial metabolites and immune signals interact with stress and mood-related biology.

Gut barrier support

Microbes interact with your intestinal lining to help maintain gut integrity and function.

Disease risk associations

Research links microbial imbalances to conditions such as IBS, obesity, diabetes and more.

Dysbiosis: why it matters

Expanding research shows that disturbances in your gut microbial ecosystem, such as a loss of beneficial microbes or an expansion of harmful ones, may be associated with a wide range of health conditions. These associations are scientifically important: they help guide precision nutrition and behaviours that support health and reduce disease risk. New studies are now working to define whether certain microbes at specific levels lead directly to the development of conditions.

OUR APPROACH

Precision nutrition, guided by your unique microbiome.

Even genetically identical individuals can have very different gut microbiomes, shaped by diet, geography, medication use and environmental exposure. This is why one-size-fits-all dietary advice falls short. Our approach uses advanced metagenomic data to tailor nutrition specifically to your host-microbiome interplay, going beyond conventional personalisation based on age, gender and lifestyle alone.

01
Advanced whole-genome shotgun analysis

The gold standard in microbiome testing. Unlike 16S barcode testing that offers a limited snapshot, our metagenomics approach scans all DNA in your sample, identifying species with greater depth, breadth and functional insight.

02
AI-powered personalised food scoring

Over 300 specific foods are analysed against your unique microbiome results. Each food is scored 0–10 based on how it impacts your current microbial balance, so you know exactly what to eat more of and what to reduce.

03
Registered clinical dietitian guidance

Your dietitian will use their specialist training in gut microbiome science to translate complex results into a practical, personalised nutrition plan that fits your lifestyle, preferences and health goals.

How long before I see results?

Individual results vary, but many clients notice improvements in digestive comfort, energy levels, and overall wellbeing within 4-8 weeks of following their personalised nutrition plan. The microbiome is dynamic and responsive to dietary changes but sustainable shifts require consistency over time.

Can I retake the test?

Yes! We recommend retesting after 3-6 months of following your personalized plan to track improvements and allow your dietitian to make refined adjustments. Our repeat packages are specifically designed for this purpose and offer excellent value for ongoing optimisation.

What’s in the full report?

Your detailed microbiome report provides actionable insights across four key areas:

Section 1: Your Gut Microbiome Profile

15 individual health parameters that characterise your current gut microbiome and identify where you can target changes to diversify your gut microbiome and enhance health and wellbeing:

  • Microbiome age
  • Wellness score
  • Microbiome diversity
  • Carbohydrate metabolism
  • Sleep quality indicators
  • Bowel motility
  • Gluten sensitivity
  • Processed food index
  • Autoimmune index
  • Antibiotic damage assessment
  • Metabolic score
  • Protein metabolism
  • Fat metabolism
  • Lactose sensitivity
  • Vitamin synthesis
  • Sugar index

Section 2: Bacterial and Disease Associations

This section presents the associations between specific bacteria in your microbiome and certain health conditions. Important: Results indicate associations rather than direct causality. For each condition, you can see whether relevant bacteria were detected in your microbiome and, if present, their levels.

The ‘Evidence Rate’ reflects the scientific strength of each association, based on how extensively the bacteria-disease relationship has been studied and validated in peer-reviewed literature. These findings help you take actions to reduce risk but do not constitute medical diagnoses.

Section 3: Personalised Nutrient Guide (300+ Foods Analysed)

Different bacterial species require different nutrients. This personalised nutrition guide helps balance your microbiome by selectively feeding the right bacteria in your gut. The purpose is to increase beneficial bacteria while reducing those that cause imbalance.

Each food receives a score from 0-10:

15 individual health parameters that characterise your current gut microbiome and identify where you can target changes to diversify your gut microbiome and enhance health and wellbeing:

  • 0-3: Eat less of these nutrients
  • 4-7: Maintain for a balanced and varied diet
  • 8-10: Enrich your diet with these nutrients

Note: Food recommendations are specifically designed to support the growth of beneficial bacteria and do not reflect general health or long-term dietary guidance. Your clinical dietitian will help you integrate these recommendations into a comprehensive, balanced eating plan.

What are the Personalised Supplement Recommendations?

Available in: Comprehensive and Premium packages

Not all probiotic and prebiotic supplements work for everyone. Since each person’s microbiome is unique, the nutrients needed to support beneficial bacteria also vary significantly.

Our advanced analysis identifies your specific needs by examining the genetic functions of your gut microbiome. It determines:

  • Which helpful bacteria are missing from your microbiome
  • Which prebiotics can support their growth
  • How they work together to restore microbial balance

With this insight, our algorithm recommends the most suitable probiotics and prebiotics tailored specifically to your microbiome, maximising effectiveness and value.

What is the Personalised Meal Plan?

Available in: Comprehensive and Premium packages

Developed by our clinical dietitians with specialised gut microbiome training, your personalised meal plan transforms your microbiome-based food scores into a structured daily diet plan. This simplifies complex data into practical meal suggestions, ensuring you nourish the right bacteria for optimal gut health.

Your meal plan is customised to:

  • Your preferred cuisine and cultural food preferences
  • Any food intolerances or allergies
  • Your chosen dietary model (protein-rich, ketogenic, Mediterranean, anti-inflammatory, etc.)
  • Your lifestyle and cooking preferences
