Question 1

How do I test my gut microbiome?

Accepted Answer

Viome uses a proprietary technology, originally developed at the Los Alamos National Laboratory called metatranscriptomic sequencing. This technology allows us to see every microorganism in your gut microbiome and analyze the activity of these microorganisms. This far surpasses any other gut testing technology, such as 16S and Metagenomic Analysis (which both use DNA), as metatranscriptomics looks at RNA and identifies all microorganisms living in your gut: bacteria, viruses, archaea, yeast, fungi, and eukaryotes, as well as what those microbes do and produce there, giving you the fullest picture available of your current gut microbiome health. Most microbes are neither absolutely good nor bad. It depends on the functions your microbes are performing and how they're working together. Our snapshot of your current microbiome health gives you the full story on your microbes, what they're doing and producing.

Question 2

Can my gut microbiome change when I implement my recommendations?

Accepted Answer

Yes! When you implement your Viome food and supplement recommendations, your microbiome may experience changes. And in fact, your gut microbiome is constantly in flux depending on what you feed it, along with environmental conditions, such as stress. As everybody's gut microbiome is unique, how fast or slow these changes happen all depends on you and your personal journey.

Question 3

What will I get if I test with Health Intelligence instead of Gut Intelligence?

Accepted Answer

Viome's Gut Intelligence Test is our original, groundbreaking health test that uses a stool sample to measure your microbial gene expression and gives you insights about your gut microbiome health along with nutrition recommendations to help improve areas that need attention.

With our latest test, Health Intelligence, we build on the foundation of our Gut Intelligence Test to reveal how your gut microbiome is impacting the rest of your body. With this test, we analyze not only microbial gene expression, but also mitochondrial and human gene expression.

Health Intelligence gives you insights into Cellular Health, Immune System Health, Stress Response Health, Mitochondrial Health, and Biological Age plus over 30 more subscores beneath these main health areas. Your food, supplement, probiotic, and prebiotic recommendations are based on these scores and your full profile analysis.

Question 4

How can I see my test results?

Accepted Answer

We'll notify you by email when your results are ready in approximately 3–4 weeks after your samples are accepted at the lab (processing times may vary). Download the Viome app, available for iOS and Android platforms to view. Your results are also available for online access at my.viome.com.
