The molecular genetic analysis of your stool provides precise data on bacterial phyla, metabolic profiles and health-relevant key organisms – as documented in your lab report. It covers:

• Diversity (species richness): A high value such as 6.45 shows a stable, varied microbiome – a strong factor for resilience, metabolism and the gut barrier.
• Enterotype: The classification – to Bacteroides, for example – describes the metabolic direction of your microbiome.
• Dysbiosis index: Rates how far your microbiome departs from a healthy balance.
• Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio: Shows the balance in the metabolic profile, often relevant for weight, energy and inflammation.
• Mucosal bacteria such as Akkermansia & Faecalibacterium: Both matter for inflammation control and the gut barrier – some of them low in your report.
• Butyrate producers: Essential for energy, regeneration and mucosal health. Some values are below the normal range.
• Metabolic markers (metabolome): Indications of bile acids, histamine, phenols, TMAO – important for detoxification, liver, cardiovascular health and food tolerance.

This combination makes the microbiome test especially valuable, because it does not only explain symptoms: it gives concrete starting points for diet, lifestyle and treatment.

A professional microbiome test supports you especially if you:

• have recurring digestive complaints
• notice dips in energy or inflammatory processes
• want to strengthen your immune system
• are under stress
• want to improve your gut barrier
• want to optimise athletic performance, recovery or longevity

The data from the microbiome analysis show clearly how individually your body responds – and how strongly diet, stress, age and lifestyle shape the microbiome.

The microbiome test brings together diagnostics, holistic therapy and lifestyle medicine coaching in a modern way. A scientific microbiome test fits well into a prevention or longevity programme – for example for:

• rebuilding the gut
• a dietary plan
• recovery from stress
• sports optimisation
• detox support
• skin and hormone balance

That makes the microbiome analysis a real tool for shaping your health actively – rather than only treating symptoms.

1. Bifidobacterium longum – immune modulation
Source: Gavzy SJ et al. “Bifidobacterium mechanisms of immune modulation and …” 2023.
Link:https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10730214/

Scientific description: The review summarises how bifidobacteria (B. longum, for example) influence the immune system – by lowering pro-inflammatory metabolites such as trimethylamine, promoting regulatory immune cells and changing cytokine profiles.

Relevance: Shows that bifidobacteria are an important part of a healthy gut barrier and a well-regulated immune system. Relevant for prevention: raising bifidobacteria may help lower inflammation and stabilise the immune system.

2. Microbiome ↔ mitochondria – crosstalk
Source: Zachos KA et al. “The interplay between mitochondria, the gut microbiome and …” 2024.
Link:https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11306032/

Description: This review examines the interaction between the gut microbiome and mitochondrial function – how microbial metabolites influence mitochondria, and how mitochondrial states in turn influence the microbiome.

Relevance: For energy metabolism and preventive diagnostics: a dysbiotic microbiome appears to act not only locally but also systemically, reaching into cellular energy processes.

3. Microbiome increases mitochondrial respiration in a brain model
Source: Morais LH et al. “The gut microbiome promotes mitochondrial respiration in …” 2025.
Link:https://www.nature.com/articles/s41531-025-01142-5
Description: This original study in a mouse model shows that the gut microbiome raises mitochondrial activity in the striatum. The authors discuss whether this is compensatory or over-activating.

Relevance: Documents the link between microbiome ↔ mitochondria in the brain and nervous system – relevant for energy, neurotransmitters, mental health and prevention.

4. Microbiome ↔ energy production & immune response
Source: Clark A et al. “The Crosstalk between the Gut Microbiota and …” 2017.
Link: https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/physiology/articles/10.3389/fphys.2017.00319/full

Description: This study shows that mitochondria respond to the gut microbiome by regulating energy production, shifting the redox balance and controlling immune responses (TNFα-induced, for example).

Relevance: Underlines that gut health has a direct influence on cellular energy, ROS balance and immune regulation – a good fit for the diagnostic axes “microbiome – energy – immune system”.

5. Meta-analysis: Bifidobacterium probiotics & cardiometabolic parameters

Link: https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms26135944 (full link: https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/26/13/5944)
Description: This meta-analysis (RCTs up to the end of 2024) examines how probiotics containing Bifidobacterium improve lipid profiles, blood pressure, glycaemic control and inflammation markers in NAFLD patients.

Relevance: Shows the direct benefit of a targeted microbiome intervention in metabolic disease – supporting preventive diagnostics and treatment approaches around microbiome analysis.
