What is the difference between a microbiome test and a food allergy test?

A food allergy test may be able to detect specific allergens, or the things that cause a reaction. Our microbiome test can detect biomarkers for conditions like eczema, food allergies and asthma. This tells you about the potential risk of developing these conditions. No microbiome test can detect specific allergens.

Beyond these biomarkers, testing the microbiome gives you important information for promoting gut health. We have tons of key insights beyond food allergy biomarkers to help you understand and take actions to promote gut, and subsequently lifelong, health.
