01
Look at activity
Viome analyzes microbial RNA to estimate which genes and pathways are active in your gut microbiome at the time of sampling.
Viome Microbiome Testing + Coaching
Your gut is not a guess. Test what it is doing.
Viome looks at RNA activity in your microbiome to reveal what your microbes are doing, not simply which organisms are present. Posh Fitness helps turn those insights into practical decisions for food, supplements, fitness, recovery, and daily habits.

The Viome Difference
Microbiome data becomes more useful when you can see activity.
RNA
adds a functional layer to microbiome analysis
Traditional microbiome tests may focus primarily on which organisms are present. Viome uses metatranscriptomic sequencing to examine microbial gene expression, providing information about active biological functions and pathways at the time of testing.
That does not make a wellness test a diagnosis. It does make the data potentially more actionable. Your results can be used to organize nutrition and lifestyle questions, identify priorities, and create a more personalized plan rather than relying on generic “gut healthy” advice.
02
Turn data into priorities
Your report organizes complex biology into health scores, food recommendations, and other wellness insights that are easier to act on.
03
Add human coaching
Posh Fitness helps translate your report into realistic meals, routines, training choices, supplement questions, and follow through.

What Posh Fitness Adds

STEP 04
A report is information. A plan changes behavior.
Your Viome app can give you a large amount of personalized data. Coaching helps decide what matters first, what is realistic, and how your gut health strategy fits with the rest of your health and performance goals.
Review the signal
We look at your scores, recommendations, symptoms, goals, food preferences, training demands, and current supplement routine.
Prioritize
Instead of changing twenty things at once, we identify a small number of high value actions you can actually sustain.
Build your routine
Food choices, protein and fiber targets, meal structure, exercise, recovery, and supplements can be organized into one coherent plan.
Track and refine
We use symptoms, adherence, performance, and optional retesting to refine the plan rather than treating one test as a permanent verdict.
Who May Find It Useful
For people who want better questions, not just more data.
Microbiome testing is best used as one piece of a larger health picture. It can be especially useful when you want to personalize everyday decisions and see whether your strategy changes over time.
Digestive patterns
For people tracking bloating, irregularity, food tolerance, or other recurring digestive patterns alongside appropriate medical care when needed.
Nutrition personalization
For people tired of generic food lists who want a structured way to test and refine what works for them.
Performance and recovery
For active adults who want gut health, fueling, training, sleep, and recovery to be considered together rather than in separate silos.
Longevity focused clients
For people already using bloodwork, DNA, wearables, or other health data who want the microbiome included in their broader wellness strategy.

Viome currently lists a typical results timeline of about 2 to 3 weeks after sample processing.
Turn results into action
Posh Fitness can help you organize the recommendations into practical nutrition, fitness, recovery, and lifestyle changes.
Scientific Context
Useful technology, with appropriate humility.
Metatranscriptomics can add information about microbial activity that is not captured by DNA based community profiling alone. At the same time, microbiome science is still evolving, individual responses vary, and many associations do not prove cause and effect. That is why we use microbiome testing as a wellness and personalization tool, not as a stand alone medical diagnosis.
FAQ
A few things worth knowing before you test.
Is Viome testing diagnostic?
No. Viome describes its consumer testing as educational and informational, not as a replacement for medical diagnosis or treatment. Persistent, severe, or unexplained gastrointestinal symptoms should be discussed with an appropriately licensed healthcare professional.
What does Viome measure that a basic microbiome test may not?
Viome uses RNA based metatranscriptomic sequencing. In practical terms, this can provide information about microbial gene activity, not only the organisms detected in the sample.
How long do results take?
Viome currently states that results are generally available in about 2 to 3 weeks. Shipping and laboratory processing times can change, so check Viome's current product page when ordering.
Should I retest?
The microbiome can change with diet, medications, illness, travel, sleep, stress, and other factors. Viome currently promotes retesting around every six months for people who want to follow change over time. Whether retesting is useful for you depends on your goals and whether the result would change your plan.
What does Posh Fitness do after I get my results?
We can help you prioritize the findings and turn them into a manageable action plan that may include food choices, meal structure, protein and fiber goals, supplement questions, exercise, recovery, and behavior change. We stay within health coaching scope and refer diagnosis and treatment decisions to licensed medical professionals.
