Tiny Health is the first science-based platform that profiles a mother and baby's microbiomes in the first 1,000 days that is a critical window for the infant's lifelong health. Unfortunately, certain diets, lifestyles and medical interventions (while life-saving) have unintended consequences by disrupting the natural colonization of an infant's gut microbiome in early life. This potentially contributes to chronic diseases such as eczema, food allergies, asthma, type I diabetes, and obesity later in life, which affects hundreds of millions of people globally.
Using at-home test kits, next generation sequencing, a proprietary knowledge base, and AI technology, we provide key insights during this critical period when the microbiome is developing rapidly and highlight risk factors linked to microbial imbalances. We generate personalized, actionable recommendations, and early interventions to hopefully prevent health issues linked to infant gut development and give the child the best possible start in life.
