How to read your Tiny Health results

Tiny Health is best known for infant and family microbiome testing, where it is genuinely the category leader. The adult test exists and uses the same shotgun sequencing infrastructure, but the educational and recommendation content is less developed than for the baby line. Worth ordering if you are already a Tiny Health customer for your kids and want consistency across your family. For adult-only stand-alone use, Thorne or Biomesight are usually better options.

Methodology Shotgun metagenomic sequencing on stool.

How Tiny Health works

Shotgun metagenomic sequencing on stool. Same methodology category as Thorne, with species-level resolution and functional gene profiling. Tiny Health's reporting layer is built around life-stage segmentation (infant, child, adult, vaginal, pregnancy) more than around clinical symptoms.

What Tiny Health does well

Shotgun sequencing for species-level resolution
Strong family or multi-generational use case
Direct ordering, easy logistics
Backed by Stanford and Mayo partnership signals

What Tiny Health misses

PDF format upload is not yet supported by Test To Table
Adult content layer is thinner than infant or family content
Limited host marker integration
Less established for clinical adult use cases

Frequently asked questions

How much does Tiny Health cost?

Approximately $179 to $229. The exact price depends on the practitioner who orders it, whether you have insurance reimbursement (most stool tests are not covered), and any add-on panels.

How long do Tiny Health results take?

Typically 21 to 35 business days from the time the lab receives your sample. Add 3 to 5 days for shipping in each direction.

Can I order Tiny Health without a doctor?

Yes. Tiny Health is sold direct to consumer. You order online, the kit ships to your home, and the lab returns results to you directly.

Can Test to Table interpret my Tiny Health results?

Not yet. We are working on adding Tiny Health PDF parsing. In the meantime, you can leave your email on this page and we will notify you the moment it is supported.

What does Tiny Health miss?

No single stool test catches everything. The "What this test misses" section above lists the specific gaps. The most common pattern is to combine a targeted-organism test (like GI-MAP) with a diversity-style test (like Biomesight or Thorne) when the clinical question is ambiguous.
