Stool testing has become a popular method for evaluating the status of an individuals' microbiome. The problem is that many of these tests are often lacking in accuracy, reliability, and functionality. BiomeFx not only uses the most advanced and accurate sequencing technology, but it also explores some of the many inner functions of the gut microbiome.
This test will explore the pathogens in your gut as well as the keystone species that are crucial to overall health and the metabolic functions that rely on the gut microbiome.
Digestive health is key to absorbing nutrients and ultimately a healthy body. A stool test gives you a picture of your gut microbiome health. This is a great tool that provides information on the different species present, their composition, population of pathogens, and the population of antibiotic resistance genes. Researchers are beginning to understand how the microbiome influences hormone balance, neurotransmitters, autoimmunity, detoxification, digestion, and disease risk.
One of the most unique aspects of BiomeFX Stool test is the ability to evaluate the influence of the gut microbiome on disease risk. With the most robust database of healthy samples, BiomeFx can help you identify early deviations from a healthy population. Knowing what is actually going on in your microbiome is the best way to put an action plan in place to make the necessary shifts in your microbiome diversity to that of a healthy microbiome.
RECENT EVIDENCE SUGGESTS THAT THE GUT MICROBIOME IS LIKELY THE MASTER CONTROL CENTER OF OVERALL HUMAN HEALTH.
BiomeFx™️ has a higher DNA capture than any other popular stool test on the market. This is because of a DNA sequencing method called whole-genome sequencing. This allows the test to see not only the presence of certain gut microbes, but also their precise abundance so that we can measure ratios of bacteria and determine ratios of dysbiosis for each individual. The next-generation, whole genome DNA sequencing is the gold standard for stool test analysis.
Many stool tests use quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) or metatranscriptomics using RNA, rather than DNA. These methods can miss up to 50% of the microbes present in a stool sample and doesn't offer information dysbiotic ratios. These methods are old school and don't provide you with enough information to make real-life changes to your gut microbiome.

How the Process Works:
After you sign up, you will get an email confirmation within 1-3 business days with instructions and intake forms to fill out online. A stool sample collection kit will be mailed to you and can take about a week to get to you. The instructions will have information on how to take the samples and where to send it. Once you mail your samples, it takes about 3-4 weeks for the results. Please complete all intake forms and return back as soon as possible.
