Confident care with clinical-grade microbiome insights

Delivering clinical-grade microbiome testing built with rigorous precision and evidence-based science to accurately map the microbiome ecology.

Gastrointestinal function

Supports digestion, motility, and nutrient absorption; imbalances can cause bloating, constipation, reflux, and abdominal discomfort

Mental health

Impacts mood, cognition, and stress response through gut–brain axis communication and neurotransmitter production.

Immunity & inflammation

Shapes immune resilience and inflammatory balance, influencing infection risk, fatigue, and chronic inflammatory symptoms.

Womens reproductive & hormonal health

Influences fertility, hormonal balance, and menstrual health through microbial–endocrine interactions.

Metabolic function & energy

Regulates metabolism, blood sugar control, and energy production for healthy weight and vitality.

Detoxification support

Supports gut–liver axis function, intestinal integrity, and efficient elimination of metabolic waste and toxins.

Nutritionist

Translate microbiome and gastrointestinal findings into precise, evidence-based nutrition plans.

Naturopaths

Analyse the whole microbiome and uncover root imbalances to guide a holistic path to better health.

Integrative General Practitioner

Integrate microbiome testing into root-cause care with comprehensive, evidence-graded insights you can trust.

Dietitians

Apply clinical-grade microbiome and gut health data to design evidence-based nutrition strategies that drive better patient outcomes.

When gut symptoms swung between constipation and diarrhoea, Microbiome Explorer revealed microbial and digestive imbalances that routine tests missed — providing clarity and guiding a more targeted, effective care plan.

Study 1
Chronic bowel symptoms with alternating patterns

resources

Decades of constipation and fatigue left unresolved by standard care were clarified with Microbiome Explorer, revealing oral-gut microbial imbalance and guiding a more personalised treatment pathway

Study 2
30, male, decades of constipation and bloating

resources

Even without gut symptoms, Microbiome Explorer uncovered inflammatory and microbial imbalances influencing immune health, informing simple, effective steps to improve resilience.

Study 3
Immune-related health challenges without gut symptoms

resources

After years of ongoing constipation and bloating with little progress, Microbiome Explorer uncovered key gut microbiome patterns and revealed the need to look deeper into pelvic health factors for a complete picture.

Study 4
Persistent constipation with overlapping pelvic symptoms

How is this different from other gut microbiome tests in the market?

Most tests stop at identifying which species are present. Microbiome Explorer goes further, uncovering how the gut is functioning through functional markers. You’ll receive a single, unified report with microbiome, GI, and pathogen insights plus clear, evidence-graded recommendations you can act on right away.

What functional markers are included? How do they influence treatment?

MetaXplore includes up to 7 GI health markers and 14 functional microbiome markers spanning digestion, inflammation, motility, barrier integrity, and microbial diversity. These markers help identify root-cause dysfunctions, not just presence of microbes so you can tailor diet, lifestyle, and supplement protocols with greater precision.

How easy is it to interpret the report, and will I need to change how I work?

The report is designed for real-world clinical use. Insights are prioritised, explained in plain language, and supported with interpretation checklists and videos. You don’t need to change your workflow; just plug the report into your current clinical reasoning. Need help? Our Clinical Application Specialists offer 1:1 consult.

What kinds of recommendations does the report include? Are they truly evidence-based?

Yes. Every recommendation whether dietary, lifestyle or supplemental is backed by published evidence. Over 1,500+ peer-reviewed studies were reviewed over 7,000+ hours by our in-house clinical science team. Each insight is graded by the strength of evidence and matched to the patient’s unique microbiome profile.

How do I get started, and can I see a sample report before committing

Absolutely. You can view the sample report anytime. To begin using Microbiome Explorer, simply register as a practitioner. There’s no upfront commitment, just access to better tools for better care.
