Tiny Health offers at-home gut tests for the whole family. We focus on a baby’s first 1,000 days to address imbalances that may cause chronic conditions such as allergies. With comprehensive shotgun metagenomics sequencing, Tiny Health gives parents key insights and actionable recommendations to improve a baby’s lifelong health.

The first 1,000 days of your baby’s life can be tough
Tough on them. And on you, too. The uncertainty. The second-guessing. The sleepless nights. The constant wondering that you may get it “wrong” even though you do everything “right.” Babies don’t come with an instruction manual. And it’s hard to know why your baby isn’t feeling their best.
The answer is in your baby’s gut
Fussiness, sleep issues, reflux, eczema, food allergies, and even some long-term conditions like asthma, and type 1 diabetes link back to your child’s microbiome development during these crucial first 1,000 days.
Their immune system may need a little help
A C-section birth, antibiotics, formula use, or living in an over-sanitized, urban environment can impact your baby’s immune system. Tiny Health helps you pinpoint any potential issues and jumpstart their health.

"We were interested in our baby's microbiome but then..."

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this gut test only for babies? Can older kids test too? Can I test other family members?
Our gut health test can be used by any family member. We’re the first-ever gut health test for babies 0-3 years of age, but we also have gut health insights for children 3-17 years old, and regular adults as well as during pregnancy. We also have a vaginal health test. Please head over to https://www.tinyhealth.com/store to see our full product suite
How does testing work? What do I have to do?
We use a stool test collected with a lab-certified sampling swab from soiled tissue paper.
How solid is the science? I’ve heard the field is pretty new.
Microbiome health as a field is relatively new compared to medicine in general. However, human microbiome research has grown over the past 10 years and rose exponentially in the past five years as sequencing technology became more affordable.
My pediatrician said they’d never heard of the microbiome before. Why should I take a test?
Conventional medical practitioners don’t get training for microbiome health and as such, are not always familiar with the latest research and recommendations in this field of medicine.
Is this just something else to be anxious about during my baby’s childhood?
Not at all. Unlike DNA testing, conditions associated with the microbiome are reversible and risks can be reduced by taking preventative measures. Instead of just being worried about it, you can take the recommended actions and get some well-deserved peace of mind.

Can this test tell me about lactose or dairy intolerance?
Dairy products and young children can be tricky to navigate. Lactose intolerance refers to trouble digesting the milk sugar, lactose. This is different from cow milk protein allergy, which involves an immune response.
Does microbiome testing detect food allergies or fix problems like eczema?
While microbiome testing does not test for food allergies, we can show associations between your baby’s gut microbiome and their symptoms of eczema or allergies.
