Long-term gut health
It's never too early, or too late, to start.
Research links gut health to immunity, metabolism, and overall wellbeing — and shows it's shaped by how you were born, antibiotics, diet, stress, and age.
For some, understanding it early means building strong habits from the start. For others, it's finally making sense of symptoms they've managed for years. Either way, understanding is where we begin.
Built on years of research. Designed for real life.
Behind Alba is a team of researchers and clinicians dedicated to understanding gut health from early life onward. Our work builds on large-scale longitudinal research and hundreds of thousands of microbiome data points.
Together, our team has contributed more than 1,600 peer-reviewed publications.

Ines, Verified Customer
At five months old, my daughter developed dermatitis and eczema patches. Nothing seemed to help. Alba's test showed us what was going on in her gut, and with dietary changes and guidance from our consultation, we finally felt we knew what to do.Patrizia, Verified Customer
The insight I gained into my children’s gut health has been invaluable. It brought clarity to things that were hard to understand and that our healthcare centre couldn’t really help with, and it inspired us to make changes that actually feel simple and doable. Worth every single penny!Juhiana, Verified Customer
I wanted a better understanding of my gut health — what was going well and what needed attention. Alba provided exactly that. The insights were easy to understand and genuinely helpful in guiding how I think about my nutrition and overall wellbeing.Anna-Katarina, Verified Customer
Alba Health has truly helped us understand what our child needs to feel well from the inside out. We ordered a kit because our four-year-old daughter was having stomach issues. After receiving the test results, we adjusted her diet – and now she no longer has stomach pain!Daisy, Verified Customer
I was slightly apprehensive, but after getting the results back I actually feel SO much better knowing what's actually going on in her gut. The call with Tanya our nutritionist was SO insightful — a full plan of action and a probiotic recommendation based on her results. I'm going to do my boys next!
