Your Boise address affects delivery logistics, not the scientific
meaning of your microbiome report. The report is based on the
submitted stool sample and should be interpreted according to what
was measured and the limitations explained with the test.
A gut microbiome report can organize laboratory-based 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 disease, identify the medical cause of
symptoms, or replace clinically appropriate testing and medical
evaluation.
A single result also cannot prove that one particular food,
supplement or lifestyle change caused a specific microbiome
finding.
