Problem
Many people experience gut-related symptoms but lack clarity on their underlying causes or actionable next steps. Standard healthcare often provides generic advice rather than personalized insights, leaving individuals without a clear path to improve their digestive health and overall wellbeing.
Solution
Biomine offers an at-home gut microbiome testing service that decodes an individual's unique microbial profile to deliver personalized nutrition and lifestyle guidance. Using advanced sequencing technology, the service identifies thousands of microbes and analyzes their associations with chronic health issues like skin health and inflammation. Each report is reviewed by microbiome experts and includes main findings, condition associations, and concrete next steps tailored to the individual. Users also receive exclusive access to a private 30-minute consult with a microbiome specialist to discuss symptoms and history against scientific evidence, ensuring guidance is personalized rather than scripted. The platform includes a recipe collection built around South African foods that support gut health, providing practical dietary steps users can take immediately. Re-testing features allow users to track how diet, lifestyle changes, and supplements influence their microbiome over time.
Target Audience
