Our microbiome test:
The microbiome is a collection of microorganisms that live in different places in your body, for example on your skin, in your mouth, ears, intestines and even in our lungs. In general, they live on all surfaces that have direct contact with the outside world. The microbiota is the part of the microbiome that consists only of bacteria. These bacteria, also known as the microbiota, play a crucial role in your health and well-being. They are essential for:

While we can't cure all conditions and diseases through gut bacteria yet, we do know that balancing your microbiota can greatly contribute to your health.

I used the first two kits to check my gut health due to migraines and digestive issues. When my symptoms worsened, a test revealed that I had a Clostridium infection. Thanks to the MyMicroZoo kit, I knew which bacteria were causing the problem. Their advice helped me recover.
I am now largely symptom-free and very grateful!

I was just really curious about my gut flora. There was so much information in the results. It was a bit tricky to understand if you’re not that good at it. In the end, I took a consultation as well. After that, it was very clear.

I tried the Explore kit out of curiosity to see if my microbiome was healthy. The results confirmed that I was on the right track with my diet and lifestyle. It is nice to see that my efforts are paying off.
I even made a few more adjustments to further improve my microbiome.
Optimize your health
Your gut health significantly impacts aging and vitality. Research shows that a diverse microbiome reduces inflammation and strengthens your immune system, which is essential for a long and healthy life.
Improve your digestive issues
Digestive problems often arise from an unbalanced microbiome. An unhealthy microbiome can disrupt digestion, leading to issues like IBS, bloating, and other discomforts.

A healthy gut enhances both your energy and recovery. Your microbiome plays a key role in nutrient absorption, directly affecting your endurance, strength, and muscle recovery.
We often see that belly issues—such as constipation, bloating, and IBS (irritable bowel syndrome)—are linked to a low diversity of gut bacteria. However, we can influence this diversity. Simple changes in diet and exercise can make a difference. The better you understand the composition of your gut bacteria, the more targeted you can work on improving that diversity. Measuring isn’t just knowing; it’s also about taking action!
