Inside you lives an entire ecosystem — trillions of organisms that shape how you feel every day. Biome Atlas maps that hidden world and hands you the field guide to explore it.
Signs your gut may be out of balance
Many everyday complaints have been associated with the state of the gut microbiome. Recognizing them is the first step toward understanding your inner ecosystem.
Recurring Bloating or Gas
When bloating, gas, or irregular digestion keeps coming back despite a reasonable diet, studies have linked the pattern to lower microbial diversity.
Digestion That Reacts to Foods
Trouble tolerating fiber, dairy, or fermented foods can reflect which microbes are — and aren't — present to help break them down.
Cravings That Spike After Antibiotics
Research suggests gut microbes help shape appetite, and a recent course of antibiotics can shift that balance for weeks.
Gut Discomfort Tied to Stress
The gut and brain communicate constantly, and researchers study how flare-ups during stressful stretches track with microbial balance.
Slow Recovery After a Stomach Bug
Taking longer than usual to bounce back from a GI illness has been associated with a less resilient gut community.
Curiosity About a Baseline
You don't need symptoms at all — many people simply want a starting map of their microbiome to track over time.
A thriving gut shapes how you live
Science continues to connect the gut microbiome to digestion, immunity, energy, and even mood. Understanding yours is the foundation for nourishing it.
~70%
of your immune activity is associated with the gut
A diverse microbiome is linked to a more resilient immune response throughout the year.
500+
species can call your gut home
Mapping who lives there is the first step to understanding your own inner ecosystem.
Gut–Brain
a two-way axis researchers study closely
The microbiome is connected to mood, focus, and how you handle daily stress.

How your sample is processed
We believe you should know exactly what happens between your home and your field guide. Here is how a Biome Atlas sample becomes a map of your inner ecosystem.
Collected at home
You collect a tiny sample yourself with a simple, guided kit — no clinic visit and no appointment. The kit is designed to keep your sample stable on its way back to the lab.
Processed at a registered core lab
Your sample is processed at a registered sequencing core lab — the kind of facility research teams rely on — rather than handled in-house.
Sequenced with 16S rRNA
The lab uses 16S rRNA sequencing to identify the bacterial communities in your gut, creating a clear view of which bacteria are present in your sample.
A note on honesty: 16S rRNA sequencing is a well-established research method for surveying which bacterial communities are present in a sample. It is not a clinical or diagnostic test, and Biome Atlas remains a wellness and educational tool.
Your report doesn't stop at data
Once your biome is sequenced, your personalized report turns insight into action — with everything you need to start nourishing your inner ecosystem.
Microbiome Insights
Clear, lab-grounded readings of which microbial communities are thriving or quiet in your gut — and what the research says about each.
Food Guidance
Eat-more, eat-less food guidance tailored to your unique microbiome — real meals, no guesswork.
Free Newsletter Access
Ongoing gut-health insights and seasonal guidance delivered to your inbox, on the house.
