Our technology

Millions of relationships.
One answer: yours.

GUT·DIET·MAP is a knowledge graph connecting bacteria, metabolites, food, metabolic pathways, symptoms, diseases, medicines and supplements. AI searches it to extract what matters for you from your result.

From sample to recommendation

What happens to your sample

STAGE 1

Collection and transport

A tube with a DNA-stabilising buffer. The sample keeps its composition at room temperature.

STAGE 2

DNA extraction

Extraction of bacterial genetic material in a partner laboratory (incl. the Polish Academy of Sciences).

STAGE 3

16S rRNA sequencing

Reading the 16S rRNA gene region identifies the bacteria and their proportions.

STAGE 4

Bioinformatics

Quality control, taxonomic classification, comparison with the reference database.

STAGE 5

GUT·DIET·MAP + AI

The result is embedded in the knowledge graph; the model points to indicators, foods and actions.

Method

16S rRNA: a map of the inhabitants of your gut

16S rRNA sequencing answers the question “who lives here and in what proportions”. From that, GUT·DIET·MAP infers which metabolic functions your microbiome may perform and how your diet affects them.

We say plainly what the test shows and what it does not. That builds trust and sets us apart from tests that promise “everything”.

✓
What it shows

Composition and diversity

Which bacterial genera you have, in what proportions, how diverse the ecosystem is, which functions it may perform (inferred from the map).

✕
What it does not show

Disease diagnoses

The test does not diagnose diseases and does not replace medical tests. It is an educational and nutritional tool.

How we read a path in the graph

Example: low Faecalibacterium → less butyrate production → weaker gut barrier → symptom: bloating. The map suggests foods rich in prebiotic fibre (e.g. chicory, leek, oats) that support this bacterium.
