MetaXplore™ GI can help you explore the impact your patients’ gut microbiome may be having on their health. MetaXplore™ GI translates diagnostic gastrointestinal markers1 and metagenomic-driven gut microbiome insights2 for over 28,000* microbial species and their function.
The MetaXplore™ range is intended for adults 18 years or older only.
The MetaXplore™ range is only available for purchase through a Healthcare Professional.
*Can report on over 28,000 species although a typical healthy sample will contain between 110 – 244 species.
Scientifically graded statements on the evidence for diet and lifestyle interventions as well as probiotic, prebiotic, nutrient and polyphenol supplementation
