Using just a pinprick of blood, Ixcela measures gut-specific metabolites to provide a personalized wellness plan that helps you feel and look great.
Curious what the Ixcela microbiome test kit looks like? We can show you! Check out this quick video of how to collect the small pinprick blood sample.
"I was nervous about taking a finger-prick blood test since I don't like needling myself. But it wasn't such a big deal after all! The important step is to warm your hand thoroughly before pricking."
"For my whole life, I struggled with regularity. But I was able to achieve this within a couple of months (and continue to maintain the regularity) with the Ixcela program! It also helps me manage my IBS better. Being on the program for more than two years has allowed me to monitor how my own measurements are trending. The information helps me make health changes accordingly. The Ixcela probiotic is also one of the richest (with the most diverse commensal strains) that I could find. Since microbiome diversity is important for gut health, I like to take a probiotic that offers diversity."
"I'm grateful that I can still dance and sing, research and write professionally, enjoy traveling, gardening, as well as lockdown time with my family—all in my 70s! To continue to enrich life, I need to focus more on daily health and wellness, and the Ixcela program is one of my choices to include in this endeavor."

“I’ve been looking for ways to improve my health after being diagnosed with hypothyroidism and hypoparathyroidism 20 years ago. Over the past 20 years I have spent a huge amount of money trying to improve my health situation. Most of it has been unsuccessful."
"After learning the gut controls most systems, and without a properly operating gut, fixing existing problems is extremely difficult, I decided to look into ways to understand my gut better and take steps to improve it. This is when I found Ixcela. They have actually found a way to quantify the performance of the gut in a simple numeric score. That is the kind of simplicity that I can follow easily."
"My goal is to determine if my gut is healthy and to make the necessary changes to improve my gut health."
"While the Ixcela experience is a very simplistic approach, it yielded tremendous results for me. It’s only been about 8 weeks since testing and incorporating the nutrition and supplement recommendations. Already my body already seems to be working better and I feel better. I have lost 18 lbs and thus far I have seen fundamental changes in how my body produces energy. I look forward to continuing my journey to better health."
