What is GxGutHealth?
GxGutHealth is snapshot of your microbiome that utilizes a comprehensive platform that converts taxonomic signatures (16S) and gene lists (WGS) into microbiome-wide quantitative functional capabilities (phenotypes). A quantitative measure of each phenotype in a microbiome sample is computed on a scale from 0 to 100%.
Our proprietary collection of predicted metabolic phenotypes presently covers manually curated pathways for > 100 major nutrients and metabolites across >3,000 reference genomes representing the microbiome.
This enables a deeper understanding of how microbes are interacting with the host, each other, and the diet, giving physiological meaning and a science-based path for those looking to actively modulate the microbiome.
Collect and analyze a fecal sample
Collect a fecal sample using the collection device and instructions provided in the kit, then return the sample to our lab partner in the included pre-paid shipping package.
Our CLIA-certified lab will then perform a scientific analysis of the sample and provide the information required for us to generate a customize microbiome report.
Personalized report
Within 4-6 weeks, you’ll get a comprehensive microbiome report that includes your microbiome diversity. Phenotypes include Short-Chain Fatty Acid Production, Amino Acid Production, Vitamin Production, and Sugar Utilization. Most importantly, the report will recommend specific food and Basic Nutrients that will help balance your microbiome.
