Gut microbiota analysis kit

Why test your microbiota?

Tests of the intestinal microbiota make it possible to detect, first of all, the impoverishment of its biodiversity. This depletion is associated with the risk of developing serious chronic diseases.

Let's take care of our gut flora together:

• 95% of our bacteria are concentrated in the gastrointestinal tract.
• 100,000 billion bacteria live together in our intestines.
• The human microbiota plays a major role in the following functions: Digestive, Metabolic, Cognitive and Immune.
• Several diseases are associated with an imbalance of the intestinal flora (Obesity, Diabetes type 1 and 2, Colon cancer, Liver disease...).
