Gut Health Test Kit
A DNA snapshot of your gut bacteria you can track over time.
Consider this test if:
- Ongoing bloating, gas, irregularity, or food sensitivities you want to understand
- Establishing a baseline before changing your diet or fiber intake
- Tracking how probiotics or a recent course of antibiotics shifted your gut
- Curious how your microbial diversity compares to reference populations
- HSA/FSA eligible
- Results delivered to your dashboard · Reviewed by a real clinician
Pre-test considerations
No fasting required. Collect the stool sample per the kit instructions and register it before mailing. Recent antibiotics, probiotics, and major diet changes shift your microbial profile, so note them and, for comparable retests, sample under similar conditions.

What this test is for
This test sequences microbial DNA in a stool sample and reports the relative abundance of the bacteria and other microbes living in your gut. It does not diagnose disease and there is no single universal healthy range; instead it gives you a profile of your microbial community and how it compares to reference populations. People often use it to investigate bloating, irregular bowel habits, gas, or food reactions, and to see how diet, fiber, probiotics, or antibiotics shift the ecosystem. Concerning symptoms such as blood in stool, persistent diarrhea, or unexplained weight loss deserve direct clinical evaluation rather than a microbiome profile. Its real value is as a baseline you can re-sample against to watch your gut change over time.
What you'll learn
Your report includes
-
Your gut diversity score. The more species identified, the greater the likelihood of a healthy gut and resilient immune system.

Bacteria that support metabolic health. See levels of beneficial bacteria associated with metabolic health and a balanced inflammatory response.
-
Potential gut-barrier red flags. Understand whether your results show elevated mucus-degrading species or opportunistic pathogens.
-
Common parasites and bacteria. Identify organisms that may contribute to infection or digestive symptoms.

Frequently asked questions
View all FAQsHow does pricing work?
Every test shows the member price next to the standard non-member price, so you can see what membership saves you. The member price is our cost, covering the lab and what it takes to run the service. It is never a profit on the test itself. Mito makes its money on the $9 membership, not on marking up your tests. Membership is $9 per month, and any applicable lab order or draw fee is itemized before you pay.
Where do I get tested?
Choose an available partner lab at checkout. If your cart contains multiple blood tests, Mito helps consolidate the eligible tests at one lab when possible. At-home kits and scans follow the collection or appointment process shown on their product page.
Is this eligible for HSA/FSA?
Yes. Eligible tests can be paid for with an HSA or FSA card at checkout.
When will I get my results?
Your results appear in your Mito dashboard after the laboratory completes processing. A clinician then reviews them before your analysis and personalized action plan are finalized. Timing varies by test, and specialty assays and at-home kits may take longer.
Do I need a doctor's order?
No. Mito provides the laboratory order when one is required, so you do not need to arrange a separate doctor visit before purchasing.
