This month we are spotlighting a new program, Viome Nutrition Consulting. Complementing the Viome test kits we sell at our clinic, we offer comprehensive Nutrition Consulting to help you decipher Viome’s information and create tangible steps forward.

What is Viome?

Viome is a cutting-edge service that identifies your active gut microbes, analyses your gut health (including gut lining health which is important for the absorption of nutrients and immune response), and ultimately gives you diet recommendations based on your results. Viome is able to see every strain of an organism, their activity, and whether they are producing nutrients or toxins inside your gut in order to generate personalized recommendations.  

What we love about Viome is the extent of information you receive with your results.  You can expect recommendations for:

  • Specific foods to focus on (Superfoods), to avoid, to minimize, and to enjoy.  

  • Why particular foods are your Superfoods and foods to avoid.  

  • Number of daily servings of each type of food including Vegetables (usually the largest category), Proteins & Fats, Fruits & Grains, and Herbs, Spices & Others.  

  • General recommendations to live a healthier life including food portions, mindful eating, timing of meals, and exercise.

  • Supplements directly relating to your results.

Each Viome test includes sample collection tools and written instructions. Within 4 weeks you can expect results delivered to you through a secure platform from any device, or through their mobile app (available as an Apple App Store download, or is available for download on Google Play).

Your Microbiome

Living inside you are trillions of microorganisms — bacteria, viruses, fungi and other life forms that collectively are known as your microbiome. Your various organs all have microbial inhabitants, but the most attention in research has been given to the gut microbiome.

The connection between gut health and overall wellness has been understood for thousands of years.

Research is uncovering the impact of gut health on everything from inflammation, to obesity, to metabolic illnesses, to psychiatric disorders. We now know that your microbiome has a greater impact on your health, performance, and longevity than your genetics!

Your gut microbiome is unique, and the specific microbes present are linked to your diet and overall well being. It is composed of bacteria that help digest your food, regulate your immune system, protect against other bacteria that cause disease, and produce vitamins including B vitamins (B12, thiamine and riboflavin) and Vitamin K, which is needed for blood clotting.
