About Tiny Health

Tiny Health is the first gut health test created for mom and baby

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.

Developed by researchers from

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.

The first gut test designed for babies

Tiny Health was founded by a mom who wanted to test her baby’s gut trajectory after her C-section and couldn’t find a straight answer in the market. Our test is the first to measure what matters most to babies. Other gut tests use “adult reference ranges,” which are entirely different from babies' ranges and lead to incorrect conclusions.

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.

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.
The process is simple and unlike other tests on the market, Tiny Health doesn't require gloves, a spoon-like collection device, or that you handle stool at all, other than on a regular tissue paper.
The sample is then stored in the included container and zippered back and mailed back to us on the prepaid envelope included with your kit.

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.
There are now more researchers looking closely at how the microbiome is related to health and disease.

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.

What does a Tiny Health test look for?

• A full breakdown of what we find in your baby’s gut microbiome
• Your baby’s Tiny Health Gut Type
• Key Insights about your baby’s microbiome and what this means for their health
• Condition Biomarkers, which may give you clues about what’s happening in your baby’s body and the risk for specific conditions
• Associations between any symptoms your baby might have and their microbiome
• Practical tips and recommendations that are unique to your test results
• A personalized note from Tiny Health’s microbiologists and immunologists

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.
