Tiny Health memberships are designed for families seeking to improve their children's and their own health, regardless of specific goals or age. By testing your microbiome multiple times over a period of time instead of a single sample, you can gain deeper insights into your health.
This type of testing, known as longitudinal data collection, provides valuable information about health trends and the effectiveness of steps taken to support health. It allows you to see if your efforts are making a difference.
Did you know that 80% of a person’s immune system resides in the gut? For babies, the balance of beneficial versus unfriendly microbes in the gut during the first 1,000 days (including the first 9 months of pregnancy and a child’s first two years) plays a crucial role in immune health.
A child’s gut microbiome matures into an adult-like microbiome between 3-5 years old. However, testing after the age of 5 can still be beneficial. While early microbiome signals for chronic conditions may be less clear, tracking any imbalances can help you make adjustments if necessary. As a parent, you have numerous opportunities to influence your child’s diet, nutrition, and lifestyle, which can impact their health.
Tiny+ Memberships can help uncover underlying issues if:
- You’re currently trying to conceive
- You’re currently pregnant
