Take Power Over Your Gut Health
What This Test Reveals
MapmyBiome analyzes the genetic material of your entire gut microbiome to provide a comprehensive picture of what’s happening inside your body.
You’ll gain insights into:
- Your microbial composition (what’s in your gut)
- Your gut function (what your microbes are doing)
- How your microbiome impacts your:
- Energy & metabolism
- Digestion & gut comfort
- Immune balance
- Brain function & mood
Gold-Standard Science: Shotgun Metagenomics
Most microbiome tests only look at a small portion of bacteria. This test uses shotgun metagenomic sequencing – widely considered the gold standard – to analyze everything in your gut.
You get a complete and accurate picture, not just a partial snapshot:
- Bacteria
- Fungi
- Viruses
- Parasites (a key differentiator)
- Species & strain-level precision
- Functional pathways (what your microbiome can do)

Frequently Asked Questions
Some questions you may have about genetic testing and how it can transform your health jouney
The gut microbiome is the community of microorganisms—including bacteria, fungi, and other microbes—that live in your digestive tract. These microorganisms play important roles in digestion, nutrient metabolism, immune function, and overall health. Everyone’s microbiome is unique and can be influenced by factors such as diet, lifestyle, medications, age, and environment.
This test analyzes the bacteria living in your gut microbiome and provides insights into your digestive health, microbiome balance, and factors that may influence metabolism, inflammation, and overall wellness. Your report also includes practical guidance on nutrition and lifestyle strategies that may help support a healthier gut environment.
Many microbiome tests focus primarily on bacteria, which provides only a partial view of your gut health. Our test goes further by analyzing your entire gut ecosystem — including bacteria, fungi, viruses, and even parasites that may influence digestion, energy, and overall well-being.
Using advanced shotgun DNA sequencing, we identify all microbial DNA present in your sample, rather than looking at just one category of organisms. This allows us to uncover imbalances or contributors that may be missed by more limited testing approaches.
The result is a more complete and actionable understanding of your gut health — because real insight comes from seeing the full picture.
Yes. The gut microbiome is dynamic and can change in response to diet, lifestyle, and other factors. Your report provides guidance to help support beneficial bacteria and overall gut balance. If you implement the recommended diet and lifestyle changes, we suggest re-testing after 3–6 months to see how your gut microbiome may have changed over time.
Once the lab receives your sample, results are typically available within 4-6 weeks. You will be notified as soon as your report is ready.
