A diverse and balanced microbiome in the human gut is essential for maintaining overall health. When this balance is disrupted, it can contribute to a range of health issues and diseases, including obesity, type II diabetes, intestinal disorders, heart disease, and more.

With gut microbiome testing, you gain valuable insights into the trillions of microorganisms living in your digestive system. This knowledge allows you to take proactive steps to improve your gut health and reduce the risk of related health problems.

Combined with personalised dietary recommendations, understanding your gut composition empowers you to optimise your wellbeing in the most natural and effective way possible.

What exactly does this Gut Health test kit tell you?

The at-home Gut Microbiome Test uses advanced laboratory technology and the latest scientific research to analyze and study the bacteria living in your digestive system. This in-depth analysis provides valuable insights into your microbiome and helps answer key questions such as:

  • Which bacteria are currently living in your gut?

  • How are your gut bacteria influencing your overall health?

  • Do you have enough beneficial bacteria in your system?

  • Are there harmful bacteria present in your gut?

  • Does your gut microbiome support or contribute to conditions like obesity or inflammation?

  • Does your gut contain enough genera of vitamin-producing bacteria?

  • Are you getting enough fiber, fat, and protein from your diet?

  • What changes should you make to improve your dietary habits?

  • How can you achieve and maintain a balanced microbiome?

Your gut microbiome report includes detailed statistical charts, personalized dietary recommendations, and a clear summary of your microbiome status.

Important Note:
Your gut microbiome composition can be affected by several factors and conditions, including the use of antibiotics in the past 3 months, recent changes in your diet, pregnancy, or breastfeeding. Please keep in mind that these factors may influence your gut microbiome test results and should be considered when interpreting the findings.

Faecal Sample Collection

The sample required for this DNA test is a stool sample. Once you place your order, you will receive a Gut Microbiome Test Kit that includes everything you need to collect your sample, including rubber gloves, a test tube, and detailed instructions.

The sample collection process is simple and can be done comfortably at home. Just be sure to carefully follow the instructions provided in your kit to ensure a successful and accurate sample collection.

Results and Turnaround Time

Results for this health package are clear and easy enough for anyone to understand, while still detailed enough to be shared with your healthcare professional. You can expect to receive your results via email within 15 to 20 working days from the time your samples are received at the laboratory.

Follow-Up Testing

After taking the test and making the recommended dietary and lifestyle changes, it is highly recommended that you re-take the test. A second laboratory analysis of your gut bacteria can provide valuable insight into how your microbiome is changing and whether you’re moving in the right direction.

At Forensics Canada, we advise our clients to order at least two gut microbiome tests—the first to establish a baseline, and the second to track progress. The second test should ideally be taken 1 to 2 months after the first. The time between tests should not exceed 6 months for accurate comparison and monitoring.
