Your Charlotte address affects delivery logistics, not the scientific
meaning of the microbiome report. The report is based on the
submitted stool sample and should be interpreted according to what
was measured and the limits explained with the results.
A gut microbiome report can organize laboratory-derived information
about the microbial community represented in the sample and make
concepts such as composition and relative abundance easier to review.
What the Report Cannot Establish
Consumer microbiome testing does not diagnose IBS, IBD, infection
or another digestive condition, identify the medical cause of
symptoms, or replace clinically appropriate diagnostic testing and
medical evaluation.
A single microbiome result also cannot prove that one particular
food, supplement, medication or lifestyle change caused a specific
finding.
