Track & optimize your family’s gut health with Tiny+

It’s well established that a child’s gut microbiome in the first 1,000 days is one of the most important contributors to their lifelong health. But usually, parents only look into gut health when symptoms appear.

We believe it’s best to closely monitor baby gut health, starting as early as 7 days old. This is because underlying gut issues may not cause visible symptoms until a child is older.

But at that point, gut health may be past the restorative stage and more about symptom management.A Tiny+ membership allows you to easily track your microbiome during pregnancy and your baby’s gut health during key windows of development. So that you can take action when it matters most.

With that said, you can test anytime.

After you become a Tiny+ member, we’ll ask you a few questions about your family’s health goals and assign you a Care Coordinator.With the membership, you’ll receive a members-only link to purchase as many gut tests as needed at a special discount price. We’ll also help you figure out the best time to sample based on your health goals. As you test your microbiome, you’ll receive research-backed suggestions to improve the health of your family. We encourage you to share these results with your healthcare provider.

Tiny+ members can use their FSA/HSA to pay for microbiome test kits and supplements. The cost of the membership itself may not be covered.

That said, we recommend checking with your FSA/HSA company/carrier for more information and details as to how you can use these funds. We’re happy to provide any additional documentation you need, like a superbill. Please email us at hello@tinyhealth.com.

While our team does include medical doctors and microbiome experts, Tiny Health microbiome testing is not intended to diagnose or treat disease, or to substitute for a physician’s consultation.

Tiny Health microbiome testing is exclusively intended to be used for wellness purposes and educational purposes, since the microbiome may be associated with certain early life conditions. We encourage you to seek your healthcare provider’s consultation before taking action on any of our recommendations based on your unique microbiome results.

Tiny+ membership is for families who are seeking to improve their children and their own health, regardless of specific goals or age.

When you test your microbiome multiple times over a period of time - instead of a single sample - you’re able to learn more about your own health. In research, this is called longitudinal data. And it’s really valuable because it shows health trends along with the impact of steps you may be taking to support your health. And whether or not they’re working.80% of a person’s immune system lives in the gut. Immune health is largely determined by the balance of beneficial versus unfriendly microbes in a baby’s gut during the first 1,000 days. This includes the first 9 months of pregnancy and a child’s first two years.

A child’s gut matures into an adult-like microbiome between 3-5 years old. However this doesn’t mean that testing after the age of 5 years old won’t help. While early microbiome signals for chronic conditions may be less clear, it’s worth keeping track of any imbalances so that you can make adjustments if necessary. As a parent, you have countless opportunities to influence your child’s diet, nutrition, and lifestyle.

With our legacy subscriptions, you get 1 test kit every 3 months at the special price you signed up for. Many of our subscribers found that they needed more kits at the reduced price in order to test additional family members, which is why we developed Tiny+.
