Unseen Bio Recensioni 25

I ordered the test couple of wees ago, as I'm bloating for 15 years, and doctors can't find the reason. It was a nice surprise that I had to log so many details before taking the sample, so that is very positive. I've got a demo about the result report, so I get familiar with it, as it is detailed and complex. But so far, I'm positive. Not sure yet if I will need a session with their dietician. Still waiting for my results, so I will update this review.

Havde valgt den dyreste expert test, men jeg synes desværre slet ikke, at resultaterne var brugbare. Resultaterne virkede meget uoverskuelige og ikke særlig konkrete (kan meget bedre lide testen hos "gettested"). Desuden var referencerammen: "sunde europæere" i mine øjne lidt misvisende - hvad definerer overhovedet en sund europæer. Endelig synes jeg "design-delen" var fjollet om, at mit biom danser eller fester! Det gør det altså ikke - det er ikke en børnehave!

I took Unseen Bio’s test to gain insights into my gut microbiome after having had a tough year recovering from Epstein Barr virus, and feeling generally down and fatigued and under the weather. I was struggling with constipation, hormonal acne breakouts, and had difficulties maintaining my weight. I had no diagnosed illness and my bloodwork and thyroid had been declared healthy. I had been following a protein heavy diet, avoiding complex carbs, and doing intermittent fasting to help my body recover. I thought I was living quite healthily compared to many of my peers.

The Unseen Bio test results showed I had very reduced diversity in my gut (about 50% the diversity of a healthy European). Somewhat alarmed, I scheduled a follow-up with their nutritionist, Cecilia, who took me through the results and convinced me to focus on adding much more fibre to my diet and to add in fermented foods when possible. Her approach was balanced and professional and assuaged my worry.

After having read a couple of books on healing the gut, I started making a lot of changes to my diet and started exercising more. In addition to completely overhauling my diet I started taking probiotics.

After a while I started feeling great—more energized, and in a better mood. I was no longer suffering with frequent constipation and noticed that my quality of sleep had improved because I started waking up before my alarm went off. I also started slowly losing weight (5 kg over 5 months). As a bonus, my skin was clearer and I had less PMS, so the lifestyle change had done something good for my hormone balance.

Five months later I took the test again. I was expecting a big shift since I had made so many changes and felt great! However, my diversity score had not really changed, but I had 2 new beneficial strains, and one was the most dominant one in the gut. I reached out to Cecilia again to discuss these results as I felt a bit disappointed—I guess I wanted my score to reflect my effort and how great I felt. The conclusion is that I may be an “outlier” whose microbiome actually works best when less diverse. It’s possible that by feeding my microbiome more fibre the bacteria were able to function more optimally and have a better output of metabolites that then has a knock-on effect on how you feel and how your body behaves.

I’m so happy I took the tests, and followed Cecilia’s advice. I know I went “all in” on both diet and exercise, which is very difficult for a lot of people to do, but I strongly advice taking the test and scheduling a session with Cecilia so you can learn what your body needs and how you can support it better.

Bra och intressant information från testet och mycket fin genomgång av resultaten med Cecilia, dietisten.

Rigtig fin rapport og god gennemgang af data.
Jeg kan anbefale diætisten Cecilia, som er meget kompetent og giver sig god tid til at forklare data og svare på spørgsmål.

Jeg havde en personlig og detaljeret samtale med diætist, Cecilia, som gav svar på alle mine spørgsmål. Jeg har længe haft udfordringer med vægt og tarmfunktion og ville finde ud af om jeg skulle / burde tage probiotika. Jeg kan kraftigt anbefale denne testen og med den opfølgende samtale, så har man et meget fint billede af, hvor man gør det godt ift til diæten og hvor man kan optimere.

Jeg har haft en godt forløb hos UnseenBio, hvor især den afsluttende samtale med Cecilia var rigtig god. Hun gav mig et godt indblik i min rapport, og forklarede på en måde man kunne forstå :-) Kan varmt anbefale UnseenBio!

It is a very good service to get an overview of your gut health.

I took away one star because even though I logged my diet, due to a technical error it was not logged so the diet recommendation was missing in the final report.

I loved the recommendation on what supplements to take depending on what pro/pre biotics you are missing. And also what food encourages or discourages specific microbe growth.

Highly informative, but maybe missing a bit on the remedy actions section. This could be due to the fact that my gut looked very healthy though, maybe recommendations are more complex for people who have problems.

Meget tilfreds med feedback fra Cecilie... fik gode og brugbare oplsyninger om min test, og gode råd mh til min kst... især tilfreds med, at Cecilie ikke på nogen måde er "fanatisk" mh. kost...

Godt formidlet feedback på testen, og virkelig god og detaljeret forklaring på scores af Cecilia. Det har styrket mig i mit arbejde med min krop.

Great service. I booked the dietician's follow-up which I thought was very helpful and valuable.

I have been struggeling for as long as i remember with digestion problems and spend so much time and energy on trying differnt solutions. The effects of (very) bad digestion have effected my life negatively on so many levels. For a long time, i thought i had IBS, but clearly, i have a problem with my gut biome. I will now start a new journey with a completely new focus and feel confident that this will make me more healthy. I feel very thankful for the competent and trustful advice i have recieved from the report and my dietitian. Well done establishing this organisation, I am very sure this is the future for health care are you are first movers. Best from Copenhagen, Peter

Super godt værktøj til at blive meget klogere. Der er virkelig meget relevant information. Glimrende gennemgang af resultater og mulige actions. Jeg vil klart anbefale at man booker en feedback session, da det kan være med til at afmystificere resultaterne, samt at gøre dem mere anvendelige og enkle.

Jeg valgte, at tage testen da jeg gerne ville se, om jeg kunne optimere mit helbred og forebygge. Jeg valgte testen med opfølgende samtale med Cecilia. Det var rart, at få det gennemgået så jeg bedre kunne forstå testresultatet og samtidig få en gennemgang af, hvordan jeg kan gå dybere ind i testen. Jeg kan anbefale at få taget testen.

Jeg valgte en test med gennemgang af klinisk diætist og selv om man kan indhente mange oplysninger i selve rapporten ved at trykke på diverse knapper, var det rigtig godt at få sat nogle ord på de ting man ikke helt forstod. Diætisten virkede meget professionel og dygtig. Jeg har fået ideer til hvad jeg skal inkludere mere af i min kost samt hvilke probiotics jeg har behov for, så det var godt. Jeg kan kun anbefale testen.

Jeg havde en hjertevarm og åben samtale med diætist som gav svar og indsigt. Jeg har ikke nogen kroniske sygdomme men står overfor hormonelle ændringer som jeg fik god rådgivning i. Jeg kan anbefale at investere i test og den opfølgende samtale hvis du vil have et mere holistisk billede af din krop end blot at købe et kosttilskud

Jeg har døjet med den autoimmune og kroniske tarmlidelse, Crohn, i +20 år, hvor et alvorligt udbrud for halvandet år siden endte i hospitalsindlæggelse. Nu når lægerne har styr på deres, og symptomerne er slået ned, så har jeg intensiveret min jagt på at blive en bedre og sundere version af mig selv, og her er Unseen Bio nu blevet et essentielt værktøj! Jeg valgte en test med en halv times samtale med en klinisk diætist, og det var nyttigt, selvom formidlingen i testsvarene i sig selv er fremragende. Jeg har nu en baseline for mit tarmsystems helbred, og med målrettede tiltag ift kost, træning, stress, søvn osv., kan jeg over fremtidige prøver (regner med én hvert halve år i den kommende tid) se om udviklingen går den rigtige vej! Unseen Bio har mine varmeste anbefalinger - alene deres indsats for formidling skal lovprises!

Jeg har altid haft en sensitiv mave, så for mig har det været både givende og positivt at bruge Unseen Bios test. Testen er grundig og tager noget tid, da du detaljeret svarer på spørgsmål og registrerer din mad. Det er let at forstå, hvordan man tager prøven, alt forsendelse er klaret. Kan ikke være nemmere. Jeg valgte en test med en halv times samtale med en klinisk diætist. Det var rigtigt nyttigt. Diætisten var dygtig og kompetent. Jeg kan kun anbefale at bruge Unseen Bio!

god service, super med diætisten og rigtig flot og givende interface/når man er logget ind og kan se sin data.

Very thorough testing of microbiome and the feedback session with their consultant was very friendly!

However, I feel they hide a lot under the "this is a new field so we don't really know what xyz bacteria does or is responsible for... but you have a lot of it". You are actually left with more questions than when you started.

Usually people like me who are health-conscious and try these things out are already aware of things like "avoid sugars, avoid processed foods, etc" and hope this test will shed new light on my health. This was not the case unfortunately.

The recommendations on the feedback session are also extremely generic and 20 minutes is not nearly long enough to get something meaningful out of the conversation. The feedback session is essentially a screen-share of your results and a consultant reading them back to you. The consultant was extremely nice and friendly, but I felt this was a waste since I can already see the results myself a few weeks prior to this meeting. Instead, we could've focused on concrete and specific recommendations for me.

Overall, I'm quite disappointed. Yes they do "what it says on the box" but it did not change the way I look at my health in any way.
