About this app

We believe in food as medicine. We also believe in empowering you to get answers to your own health.

Did you know that your gut and your body already know what they need to be healthy?

What We Do:
Viome translates what your unique body and gut microbiome are trying to tell you about how the foods you eat and your lifestyle are affecting your health. These insights are unique to you, which is understandable given that we all are very different. Our service also provides personalized food and supplement recommendations based on the results from your at-home microbiome and blood test.

How We Do It:
Scientific research has shown that modulating the active functions of your genes is connected to your immunity, healthy weight, stress, sleep, mood, energy levels, and many other important health areas.
Viome’s Health Intelligence™ service uses proprietary metatranscriptomic sequencing technology, combined with powerful artificial intelligence and translational science expertise to identify and analyze the active functions of your human, mitochondrial and microbial genes, including living microorganisms in your gut microbiome.

With Viome’s Health Intelligence service, your results include an analysis of your gut microbiome, cellular and mitochondrial health, and over 30 personalized scores that determine food and supplement recommendations for you to follow. With the app you can discover the foods you should enjoy, minimize, or avoid and what probiotics & supplements are right if you need them.

In short, we offer the most comprehensive and personalized health test available!

The information Viome provides is for informational purposes only and with the understanding that Viome is not engaged in rendering medical advice or recommendations. Viome provides this educational information to share the exciting developments being reported in the scientific literature about the human microbiome and your health.

Ratings and reviews

UPDATE 2: They've got to get a new app developer. It's just too slow, too glitchy. I can't reliably pull up my nutritional info to see which foods to avoid, and I can't easily save the list, so it's frustrating every time I try to use the app, so when I think Viome, I think frustration. ORIGINAL REVIEW: The actual product/service has been great, but just use the browser version. The app has stopped working for me. I tried reinstalling it but to no avail.

App no longer opens on my Samsung Note 20 Ultra, so I can't see results. As far as iI know, I can't view my results on my computer so I'm out of luck. Viome lost my last test after waiting months to say it was lost. They did give me a new test but I was traveling and missed my window for the blood sample. Overall, it was good the first time, but the second test experience has definitely declined for me. Your experience may be better.

UI: Instead of basic functionality, convenience and clarity, whoever worked on this app focused on useless embellishments and fluff. It was especially annoying when I tried to get the results for the second sample. To register the 2nd sample I had to enter all the information again, although most of it hasn't changed, and whenever the screen timed out, the text that wasn't saved was lost. OK, fine. Viome said that they would provide “tractable health scores” through the app (you cam see an example or a mockup on the version sold through Amazon as of this writing), but they are nowhere to be found. Moving on, the Food section is buggy, you get different results for the same settings depending on how you arrive at the result. Who knows what else is wrong, but it has nice pictures of food. It seems that the best way to get the data is through Results → Share My Results → Email. I had to find that out from support, which took them a while. Viome diet recommendations: Hopefully, the Viome analysis is better that the app (I noticed that both the kit on Amazon and the app on Google Play are at about 3 out 5). The idea behind it is interesting (and a little distinguishing), and I want it to work. I first found out about it on TED sometime in the fall of 2019 and asked a doctor at UCSF Osher Center, who basically said that this approach hasn't been proven yet and I shouldn't waste my time and money. I did, anyway. It's difficult to tell whether it really helped me personally. Recently I wanted to find the TED presentation on YouTube that mageme interested in the first place, but all I could find was hype, which made me more skeptical.
