    Common Questions

    How accurate and reliable is this testing?
    The Microbiome Explorer uses advanced metagenomic sequencing—the same technology used in clinical research worldwide. Processed by Microba, a leader in metagenomic sequencing, in their certified Australian laboratory, this testing provides highly accurate, reproducible results at the species level.
    How long until I receive my results?
    Results are typically available within 4 weeks from when the laboratory receives your sample. You'll be notified by email when your results are ready, and we'll schedule your consultation to review findings together.
    Do I need to prepare or fast before testing?
    No fasting is required. For optimal results, collect your sample before making major dietary changes or starting new supplements. Ideally, wait at least 4 weeks after finishing antibiotics. Detailed instructions are included with your kit.
    What makes the Comprehensive test different?
    While basic microbiome tests only analyse bacterial composition, the Comprehensive test combines three diagnostic technologies: metagenomic sequencing for complete microbiome analysis, ELISA for functional GI markers (inflammation, permeability, digestion), and RT-PCR for comprehensive pathogen screening. This provides the most complete picture of your gut health.
    Will I understand my results?
    Absolutely. Your report uses clear language, visual charts, and plain-English explanations. Plus, your included practitioner consultation ensures you understand your results completely and know exactly what steps to take next.
    Can I test if I'm taking medications?
    Yes, in most cases. The main exception is antibiotics, which significantly alter your microbiome—we recommend waiting 4 weeks after completion. For other medications, proceed as normal and note them in your health questionnaire.
