Using the microbiome testing kit, you can measure the type and amount of microbes in your gut via a stool sample. This helps detect infections and digestive disorders.

Jona uniquely provides actionable recommendations (diet, lifestyle, supplements, etc.) to address issues.

  • Identification of causative agents: This microbiome test kit implements metagenomic sequencing to identify various strains of disease-causing agents, such as pathogenic bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, etc., thereby providing a detailed picture of the gut microbiome. There is a direct link between these microbes and health.
  • Test interpretation and health profile status: Jona's AI system establishes a connection between a specific microbiome and disease, symptoms (GI, autoimmune and metabolic) and food sensitivities depending on the information substantiated in scientific literature. For further understanding, Jona has also created  interactive visualisation to analyse different  microbiome aspects and comprehensively understand how a person’s microbiome profile fits into the literature and their health.
  • Provide personalised recommendations: Jona's AI analyses and creates different actions  (dietary, lifestyle and supplement) to determine their impact on the microbiome This step provides information on how these actions can improve your gut health or microbial association. Based on the results, it is possible to make dietary changes (food to eat and food to avoid, elimination diet), lifestyle changes, supplement recommendations, and the right action plan to address specific health concerns based on medical literature and research studies.
  • Provide references:The different actions provided by Jonas AI are sourced to references (research studies). The microbiome is compared against 60,000 scientific, peer-reviewed medical papers. These references or sources can be reviewed. The data provided is understandable and actionable. 

Retest every 3-6 months or after a significant event i.e. antibiotics, food poisoning, major lifestyle change

Product Description

Microbiome testing kit for Gut Health - Jona

Jona’s gut microbiome testing kit tests stool samples to identify microbiomes or pathogens linked to a particular health condition using AI analysis. The secret to good health lies in the microbiome, and this kit allows you to collect useful insights based on your body’s microbiome that can be further used to improve health. 

The kit includes gut microbiome testing and AI analysis for a personalized and data-driven approach to improving health outcomes. It enables the identification of the right microbial root cause behind health conditions and symptoms like constipation, increased intestinal permeability, irritable bowel syndrome, etc,  allowing specific action plans and recommendations. 

Microbiomes play an important role in influencing general health. Research studies have elaborated on their impact on abdominal pain, acid reflux, gas, bloating, fatigue, constipation, obesity, diabetes, depression, IBD, rheumatoid arthritis, anxiety, etc. Microbiome data is very complex, and the research is continuously evolving in this field, so using AI allows interpretation based on the latest research findings that can be related to your gut health.  Personalised recommendations play an important role in improving one's specific microbiome and overall health.

Jona Microbiome Profiling Kit -components:

This kit contains an instruction manual, a stool collection tube (1 quantity) and a stool catcher (1 quantity).

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • What is a gut microbiome test kit?

This kit is used to test for more information on the gut ecosystem or gut microbes. The kit identifies gut health index, microbiome diversity scores, firmicutes to bacteroidetes ratio, different bacterias (abundant, opportunistic, favourable, probiotic, pathogenic), microbiome-based metabolic indicators, etc. The information obtained is further used by doctors to suggest lifestyle changes, elimination diet, personalized diet recommendations (food to eat and avoid, strategies to reboot, rebuild and maintain gut health)

Who should use the Jona Microbiome Profiling Kit?

If you are experiencing regular bloating, struggle to manage symptoms of IBS, or experienced unexplained weight gain
Curious to know your predisposition to diabetes (diet and genetic associated )
Diagnosed with GI disorders, IBS, GERD, etc
To identify the root cause of the symptoms and to improve the symptoms through food and diet

How does the Jona Microbiome Profiling Kit help in improving health?
People with specific health goals are likely to benefit from this kit. Some of them are:
To determine the association between your health condition and microbiome.
It may relieve different symptoms like bloating, constipation, diarrhoea, gas, heartburn, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, fatigue, weight gain, weight loss, loss of appetite, changes in bowel movements, mood changes, etc.
Healthy weight
Manage inflammation
Improve digestive health
Optimise general health
Make the right dietary choices

How to test gut microbiome?
A stool sample is collected to test the gut microbiome. The kit provided mentions instructions for the stool sample collection. 16S rRNA metagenomics sequencing is used to identify the microbes of the gut. No fasting is required for the procedure.

The results form the basis for identifying risk factors, indicators, pathogens, lifestyle perspectives, and insights into the causes of symptoms like constipation, diarrhea, sudden weight loss fluctuations, anxiety, irritable bowel syndrome, and lack of energy. It is advisable to consult the doctor after the test results are received.


What are the 3 types of bad gut bacteria?
The three common bad gut bacteria are E. coli, Salmonella, and Staphylococcus. These cause inflammation, abdominal discomfort, food intolerance, autoimmune conditions, and other health issues.

Why is gut microbiome important?
The gut has the largest diversity of microbes, called the gut ecosystem. Studies have found that people with depression have altered or less diverse gut microbes. Eating unhealthy diets, taking antibiotics, stress, etc affect the gut microbiome and our health. The gut microbiome is very important because it is associated with immunity, healthy digestion, nutrient absorption, and cognitive function.

Why is it important to have a healthy gut microbiome?
Gut health should be maintained to achieve a healthy weight, support immune health, metabolism, healthy digestion, nutrient absorption, and prevent depression, anxiety, and digestive disorders like inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome. A healthy gut microbiome also plays an important role in managing allergies, food intolerance, histamine intolerance, etc.


What type of key findings are provided by the kit?
Three types of findings are elaborated on in report:
Metabolism: For example, identification of items associated with constipation
Pathogens: Identification of symptoms related to the pathogens
Organisms: Identification of organisms associated with the disease.

What type of action plans are provided by the kit?
The action plan comprises a detailed description of nutrition, food triggers and supplements.
Other information provided includes:
Duration: For how long the plan needs to be continued
Retesting: To assess the level of improvement in microbes.
Product selection: Look for strains with human research
Medical conditions: Recommended Doctors opinion, specific dosages, cautions
Information on allergies
Recommended foods like lactose-free diet, etc
Lifestyle changes
