Loe Animal Biome

After having an amazing experience with Doggy Biome, I was so excited to try the HorseyBiome. As with the DoggyBiome, the magic is in the consultation you get with every test. I am just starting the recommended protocol for my mare, but I have full confidence in the science behind this. It is truly individualized not a one size fits all approach.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are other animals and humans excluded from taking this test?

We offer specialized test kits that are optimized for cats, dogs and horses. We also offer a test kit that can be used for all other types of animals. Please purchase the KittyBiome Gut Microbiome Health Test for Cats, the Gut Microbiome Health Test for dogs, or the Gut Microbiome Health Test for Exotic Animals kits instead.

We specialize in the microbiomes of companion animals, and our proprietary pipeline is not optimized for human samples at this time. Please see your healthcare provider if you would like to learn about your own gut microbiome.
