Nothing in here your biology didn't ask for.

Your protocol is the live cultures, the fibres that feed them and the supplement layer your reading called for — each one dosed to your gut. Nothing is manufactured before we have read you.

Every formula reviewed by our seven-person science board, analysed in EU labs.

Ten minutes of your time. We do the rest.

One sample, collected at home. Everything after that is ours.

You pay once
Nothing is paid until your results are analysed.

That single charge unlocks your report and releases your first delivery. Never before.

Under 4 weeks, every time
  1. You · about ten minutes

    Collect and tell us about you

    A sample in private, sent back with the prepaid return, plus a short intake form: your diet, your symptoms, what you already take.

  2. Us · two weeks

    Your biology, read in full

    Shotgun sequencing in EU labs reads every organism at species level. You get the full report.

  3. Us · week four

    Your formula, at your door

    Built from that report and nothing else, then delivered presorted. It tops up monthly.

It starts with a small sample. A few minutes, at home.

A small stool sample. A few tiny amounts into the tube, nothing more. Private, and done in minutes.

Seal it, and send it back with the prepaid return included in your kit. Everything you need is in the box, and a replacement kit is free if anything goes wrong.

Two readings, not one.

One finger prick, and a single drop of blood into each circle on the two collection cards. They go into the envelope, and back in the same return bag as everything else.

No needles, no clinic, no appointment. The panel tells us what actually reached you, so your doses land on measured levels rather than on symptoms.

Your sample comes back. Then our team of scientists reviews your results.

Sequencing produces the numbers. Seven specialists review them against your intake form and turn the two into a decision — the people who read your sample and build from it, plus two senior microbiome scientists who check the method from outside, with no stake in nb1. No formula is made until one of them signs it off.

  1. 01

    The sequencing is read

    Every species scored across the eight patterns, against a reference set of 8,069 guts.

  2. 02

    Your intake form sits beside it

    The answers you gave us: what you already take, your diet and lifestyle, your symptoms, your goals, and anything a clinician should know.

  3. 03

    A scientist signs the report

    You get the full reading in plain language, and the formula it decides. Nothing is made before that signature.

The whole board, and the method they govern, is on The Lab. Meet the whole board →

Your formula is drawn from 96+ studied ingredients.

Built in three parts, each a small set of units. Only the ingredients your reading calls for go in, each dosed to your gut. Nothing is a default.

We did the hard part. Your day is two moments, not seven bottles.

Everything is pre-sorted before it ships. No juggling bottles, no pill organiser, no counting. What is left is yours: the commitment to show up.

Activate

Morning · Pre-packed

Taken with your first meal.

  • Live strains matched to your gaps
  • Omega and antioxidant softgel
  • Polyphenols and daytime botanicals

Restore

Evening · Pre-packed

Taken before bed.

  • Magnesium, dosed to your reading
  • Evening botanicals, only if warranted

Nourish

Any time · One scoop

Whenever suits your day.

  • Fibres paired to the strains they feed
  • Dosed to the range your gut handles

This was the drawer. This is the whole thing now.

Before · the drawer
The open nb1 box: morning and evening blister trays either side of the prebiotic tub
After · the whole thing

Nothing to sort

Your whole day arrives already divided into morning and evening packs. No pill organiser, nothing to count, nothing to measure out.

Travels anywhere

Tear off the days you need and go. Packs slip into a bag or pocket, so a weekend or a full month packs flat in seconds.

Never runs out

Your next month arrives before you finish this one. No reordering, no gaps to plan around, no running out mid-week.

Core reads you once. Advanced keeps reading.

Every plan starts with the same gut reading, and the formula built from it. Advanced then adds three things, and they work as one loop: we measure again, we rebuild from the new numbers, and we add a blood panel so the doses land on measured levels rather than on how you say you feel.

Advanced only
Every cycle

The retest

We re-read your gut and your blood on the same methods, so the new numbers are comparable to the old ones rather than a fresh opinion.

  • The same eight patterns, re-scored
  • Your blood markers, measured again
  • Your overall score, measured again
  • You see what moved, and by how much
Every cycle

A rebuilt formula

Your formula is not topped up from the last one. It is built again from the new reading, so strains and doses follow where your gut has actually got to.

  • Strains that did their job are stepped down
  • Levels that read low pull in what they need
  • Fibres re-matched to how you now ferment
From cycle one

The blood panel

Your gut read says what your microbes can do. A blood panel says what actually reached you, so doses land on measured levels instead of on symptoms.

  • Vitamin D3, the most common shortfall
  • Homocysteine, for B-vitamin need
  • Omega-3 index and ferritin

You can start on Core and move up at any cycle boundary. Your existing reading carries over, so nothing is re-collected and nothing restarts.
