The Ultra test uses the microorganisms detected and their potential functions to select foods providing fibre and compounds that may support particular groups of bacteria, as well as types of probiotics associated with your profile. The Starter and Advanced tests include practical recommendations on diet and lifestyle.
These are wellbeing recommendations based on associations and the analysis criteria. Low abundance of a bacterium does not necessarily indicate a deficiency that needs correcting, and there is no ideal microbiome composition for everyone. They are not equivalent to an individually tailored clinical diet, nor do they determine on their own which probiotic you need: potential benefits depend on the strain, dose and circumstances of use, as explained in the World Gastroenterology Organisation guideline.
If you have a medical condition, allergy or intolerance, are pregnant or take medication, discuss the recommendations with your doctor or nutritionist before following them. If you would like an individual dietary plan, you can purchase a nutritional report.
