Can Mikrobiom Test help with Sport?

A microbiome test can provide insights into gut health, but the direct link to sports performance is not yet well established by science. The gut microbiome influences inflammation, nutrient absorption, and energy metabolism – all relevant for athletes. However, effects are highly individual and depend strongly on diet, training, and genetics. MyBody-X tests are designed for lifestyle purposes, not medical advice. A test may show rough trends but cannot derive specific training or nutrition recommendations. For performance optimization, evidence-based sports medicine guidance is recommended. Evidence: unclear, based on mechanistic links but lacking direct clinical studies for sports.
