New webinar: How to read a microbiome report
Did you know that the bacteria in your gut have a big impact on your health? Your microbiome – the ecosystem of billions of microorganisms in your gut – plays an important role in how you feel. In this webinar, we explain what the microbiome is and how our tests work. We also go through the report of someone with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) with a few dietitians. In this article, we highlight the key points. Don't miss it and learn more about your microbiome by watching the video here: YouTube video.
What is the microbiome and what do gut bacteria do for you?
The video starts by explaining what the microbiome is. What exactly is it, and why is it important? Your gut bacteria help with digestion, support your immune system, and influence your mood. By learning more about your microbiome, you can improve your health.
How do microbiome tests work
There are different types of microbiome tests. In the video, we show how our test works. With the MyMicroZoo test, you can discover which bacteria are in your gut and what this means for your health. You get a complete overview of your own microbiome.
How to read a microbiome report
Understanding your microbiome report is essential to take action on the results. In the video, we explain step by step how to do this for people with IBS:
- The summary: This gives an overview of your gut health.
