Tiny Health

The only vendor here testing infants and children as well as adults, which is the reason to choose it — the baby and child kits use age-specific reference ranges rather than scaling an adult report down. Every kit includes a results review session with a microbiome specialist, held in a small group.

This site is built to earn affiliate commission, but no vendor link or promo code here currently pays one — every link goes plainly to the vendor's site, and this notice will change when that changes. Commissions never affect the prices shown or the order of results — every table sorts on price, and vendors cannot pay for placement.

Ordering from Tiny Health

Who it suits

A family rather than an individual. Tiny Health is the only vendor tracked here selling infant and child kits with their own reference ranges instead of an adult report scaled down, and it is the only gut vendor that puts a human in front of the results at all: every kit includes "1x Coaching Call to review your results with a microbiome specialist." Someone testing their own gut once and wanting the cheapest sequencing has better options; someone testing a baby has effectively none.

How ordering works

Collection is the least fussy of the stool tests here: "Sample your 'number-two' directly from a soiled tissue paper, in the comfort of your home", using "a lab-certified sampling swab from used tissue paper", which "doesn't require gloves, a spoon-like collection device". Shipping is "Free shipping in the US" out, and the sample is "mailed back to us on the prepaid envelope included with your kit". The report follows in three to four weeks — "Personalized Gut health report (delivered 3-4 weeks after testing)".

What to watch for

The included review is a group call, not a private one: Tiny Health describes it as a "Personalized Results Review session with a microbiome specialist in a small group setting." If you expect to test more than once, do the arithmetic before buying kits singly — the Tiny+ Adult Membership lists at "Regular price $399.00 USD Sale price $369.00 USD" for "2 Tiny Health Gut Microbiome Tests per year" and "1 consultation with your microbiome specialist per year", against $249 for one kit on its own, with further kits at "member pricing of $169/kit" and further calls at "$39/consultation". No refund policy is stated on the product page.

How Tiny Health compares

Tiny Health sells into one comparison set tracked here, against 6 other vendors. Each set below lists the ones nearest on price to Tiny Health’s cheapest entry in it — at most four, one panel each — low to high. Same set means the same question, not the same test: two men’s health panels can cover very different markers, so read the counts beside the prices. Every link below goes to another profile on this site; none of them is a tracked link.
