More than 200 healthcare professionals have joined forces with Nahibu, the European expert in gut microbiota analysis.

More than 200 healthcare professionals have joined Nahibu in 2021.

Nahibu is France's leading network of healthcare professionals trained in gut microbiota.

General practitioners, micronutritionists, nutritionists, dieticians, naturopaths—a total of more than 200 practitioners have chosen to train in gut microbiota and offer their patients a Nahibu analysis to enrich their consultations.

To make this service accessible, Nahibu's Research and Development Unit has set up a free training program for practitioners. The entire program is supervised by Dr. Emmanuelle Lecommandeur and is based on scientific literature. This training aims to support practitioners in understanding the gut microbiota and in reading and interpreting the analysis results provided to users. The tool enables practitioners to provide their patients with personalized nutritional and holistic advice.

As a dietitian, the subject of microbiota is essential! I regularly see people who suffer from intestinal disorders that significantly impact their daily lives. The Nahibu analysis allows me to refine my advice on diet and nutrition. Lucie Houbart, Dietitian.

A powerful new support tool

Emmanuelle Lecommandeur, Doctor of Biochemistry and Head of Research and Development at Nahibu, points out that: Gut microbiota analyses do not provide a medical result or diagnosis, but offer the possibility of revealing the functional potential of an individual's microbiota through metagenomic analysis.

We now have scientific evidence that many disorders are linked to an imbalance in the gut microbiota, or dysbiosis: bloating and gas, intestinal pain, poor sleep quality, low energy, weakened immune system, etc. The microbiota mapping offered by Nahibu makes it possible to initially identify dysbiosis and assess the functional potential of the gut microbiota. Once established, this mapping is an extremely rich and qualitative source of information for healthcare professionals.

It includes key indicators such as diversity, microbiota balance, a comprehensive list of detected bacteria, AGCC production, information on the nutritional quality of intake, prebiotic intake, and the level of intestinal inflammation.

The results obtained enable the professional to provide more specific care. More and more practitioners are taking an interest in this tool, which enables them to make personalized nutritional recommendations tailored to each individual's profile.
