Join us for our next Clinical Conversations Webinar with Gabriella Sassi. Low-fibre, ultra-processed diets, pathogen exposure and incomplete microbiome rehabilitation are giving rise to a clinical picture that symptom-based assessment alone cannot reveal: the starved microbiome.
In this 90-minute session, Gabriella will walk through a single patient’s longitudinal journey across multiple Microba Microbiome Explorer reports to demonstrate how to identify, interpret and manage this increasingly common pattern in everyday practice.
Learning objectives
- A working definition of the starved microbiome, and how it differs from pathogen-driven dysbiosis or overgrowth
- The Microbiome Markers that signal early diversity decline – short-chain fatty acid producers, butyrate pathway activity, mucin degradation, the Hexa-LPS pathway and fibre degradation capacity
- A structured, staged rehabilitation framework spanning dietary refeeding, targeted supplementation and prebiotic strategy
- Practical approaches for patients resistant to dietary change, and how to communicate findings in a way that supports compliance
- Guidance on when to retest, and how to distinguish symptom resolution from genuine microbiome recovery
Meet your speaker
Gabriella Sassi is a Clinical Nutritionist and Naturopath, and founder of Clinica Naturopathy. With years of clinical experience and a specialisation in gut microbiome health, Gabi has been referring Microba testing in practice since 2018, building deep expertise in interpreting longitudinal microbiome data and journeying with patients through complex gastrointestinal presentations and long-term recovery.
Over her years in clinical practice she has observed first hand how modern dietary patterns, pathogen exposure, and lifestyle factors shape microbiome’s resilience and patient outcomes.
In this webinar, Gabi brings that clinical experience to life through a series of case studies, walking practitioners through the markers that matter, the practical steps that support compliance, and the management framework that drives a supportive, measurable recovery.
