Round two of companies helping me with figuring out what’s going on in my body goes to: Thryve Inside (now Ombré!)

Thryve is a health & wellness company that provides interesting data around the microbes in your body and which foods and supplements to take.

The kit I was sent to try is a microbiome health report and the first of its kind. It utilizes a stool sample that you can easily package and send back to Thryve to analyze. 

Thryve is different than other stool tests in the following way: 

1) Truly Actionable Insights: Our microbiome health report is the first of it's kind. We've utilized our own proprietary software to analyze every single microbiome research article (35,000+) and summarized 4,000 microbes (descriptions, health benefits/side effects, associated diseases, foods digested, functions, and many more) and have mapped them to 1,000+ food ingredients and 500+ supplements. In short, we have the most comprehensive actionable insights in the microbiome space.

2) Highest Accuracy Testing Kit: Our testing kit uses a proprietary liquid buffer that keeps bacterial cells in stasis prior to extraction and provides 28% more accuracy in sequencing by providing more depth and species categorization. All other kits on the market use either a "dry swab" or "anti-microbials" in their liquid buffer to lyse the cells to stop them from growing during the transportation process (that's why AG has a bloom filter) and other's don't even account for this bias. What this means is that other testing companies are actually not showing you the true data of your sample!

3) Personalized Probiotics: We are the first company to offer a truly personalized probiotic based on questionnaires and microbiome test results. We've spent over a year working with several clinically proven probiotic manufacturing partners to curate a large strain library. We also plan to offer prebiotic as part of the personalization of our probiotic supplement. Otherwise, please see here for additional information of how we compare to other probiotic brands.

I got my data back fairly quickly after sending in my sample and was pleased to see that my gut health was in the 90% range! “Close to an ideal state.” Woohoo! 

There is also an option to see what foods you should eat and how your microbiome compares across the board, how your inflammation can be better handled, and more via the $9.99 monthly premium feature.

Happy gut health!
