How Does the New Gut Health Scoring System Work?Updated 9 hours ago
Your Gut Health Score: A New Way to Understand Your Results
We're excited to share an improvement to how we present your gut health scores! Starting with tests from May 2025, we've updated our scoring system to make it more intuitive and meaningful.
What's New?
We've transitioned from a percentile-based system to a more straightforward 0-100 scale. This means:
- Your new score would have been 73 on the old scale
- Your score now directly reflects your gut health status
- The numbers are more intuitive to understand
Understanding Community Ranges
Our community ranges represent what we consider healthy gut health scores:
- Previously, the middle 50% of healthy scores fell between 76-86
- Now, the middle 50% of healthy scores fall between 25-75
- This change makes the scoring more intuitive while representing the same level of health
Your Results
- Your previous score of 73 was slightly below our community range (76-86)
- Your new score of 23 also falls below our healthy middle range (25-75)
- This change reflects the same gut health status - we've just made it easier to understand
Why We Made This Change
We're committed to making your gut health journey as clear and meaningful as possible. This new scoring system helps you:
- Better understand your gut health status
- Track your progress more effectively
- Set and achieve your health goals with confidence
Your gut health journey continues as before - we've simply made the numbers more meaningful and easier to interpret.
