Your “second brain”
All neurotransmitters found in the brain are also found in your gut. In fact, bacteria in your gut produce about 50 percent of your body’s dopamine (motivation) and 95 percent of its serotonin (happiness)! Melatonin is produced there too.
Balance the environment of your gut
Bacterial imbalances and chronic inflammation result in mental illnesses of your second brain. These may include diseases like...
IBS (too much serotonin)
Obesity
Mood disorders
Arthritis
Parkinson’s
Alzheimer’s
And even autism!
Help your bacteria work better
Have antibiotics or lifestyle and food choices created imbalance in your gut? Bacteria, like the rest of the human organism, are very adaptable. New habits can quickly heal an unhealthy gut.
Meet Your Gut
Know Why It's Important
Your body is a diverse community of microscopic life. You have about the same amount of bacteria cells as human cells.
(Trillions of them)
These bacteria in (and on) your body make sure you digest or absorb nutrients.
(Without them, you’d succumb to toxins)
Your gut bacteria affect everything from body composition to cardiovascular function to mood.
By monitoring your overall gut health over time, you will detect the microorganisms causing your gut symptoms and metabolic stress.
Simple Way To Analyze It
1. Sample Your Gut From Home
With our at-home microbiome kit, you will get everything you need to swab and submit your microbiome. Swab the relevant site to collect your sample then send your kit back.
2. Answer A Short Survey
An online survey lets you ask and answer questions about your health and lifestyle. Then, you can see how you correlate with others and existing peer-reviewed studies.
3. Ship Your Sample To A Fancy Lab
Once your sample is received, it goes to the lab and the magic happens.
