How solid is the science? I’ve heard the field is pretty new.

Microbiome health as a field is relatively new compared to conventional medicine in general.

There are now more researchers looking closely at how the microbiome is related to health and disease.

When it comes to the baby microbiome and associations with health or disease, some very clear patterns have emerged. We pull data and reference high-quality research that is reproducible and gives consistent results. This way, you can be confident in the information that we share.

Tiny Health has created something that was only possible in a clinical research setting a few years ago. We’ve made comprehensive microbiome testing more accessible and affordable to families.
