The Neurobiome Test-to-Treat Pathway
The Neurobiome Test-to-Treat pathway is Flore’s personalized route from “I feel it” to “I know it”: your at-home microbiome test read with the gut–brain axis in focus → your personal gut–brain report → a neurobiome-directed intervention (NDI): a formula matched to your own data. It’s the deeper, personalized step in Flore’s gut–brain lineup — delivered through Test-to-Treat.
A wellness insight, not a diagnosis. Your neurobiome results give you insight into your gut–brain microbiome. They are not a medical or diagnostic test and do not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent anxiety, depression, autism, ADHD, or any condition.
Start where you are
Most people meet their neurobiome one small step at a time. A targeted gut–brain synbiotic — The Bright One for mood or The Calm One for calm and focus, $49 (or $44.10/month on subscription) — is the easy entry point: try it and feel the gut–brain connection for yourself. When you’re ready to stop guessing and know your own gut–brain microbiome, the Neurobiome Test-to-Treat pathway is the next rung: a formula built from your data instead of picked off a shelf.
How the pathway works
- Test. Collect your sample at home with a simple kit and send it to an accredited lab — the standard Flore microbiome test. No needles, no clinic visit.
- Get your gut–brain report. Flore reads your microbiome with the gut–brain axis in focus and translates it into a plain-language snapshot of the organisms influencing your mood, calm, focus and sleep.
- Get your matched formula. Flore builds a personalized, multi-strain NDI formula from your own data — six months of a product that’s actually yours.
Why the gut–brain connection is real
Your gut and brain are wired together. The gut–brain axis is a two-way communication network linking the central nervous system with the gut’s own nervous system, and the vagus nerve is a major channel in it.[1] Gut microbes take part in that conversation by producing molecules that act as neurotransmitters — including GABA and serotonin.[1] In fact, about 95% of the body’s serotonin is produced in the intestine.[2] Because of connections like these, gut microbes are understood to influence mood, cognition and mental well-being.[3] Flore calls a formula built from your gut data and aimed at this axis a neurobiome-directed intervention (NDI). It builds on what scientists call psychobiotics. NDI is Flore’s term, not an established clinical claim.
Pricing — the pathway is Test-to-Treat
The Neurobiome Test isn’t a one-off swab; it’s the front of a personalized program, so its price is Test-to-Treat pricing:
- $658.50 — test included. An accredited at-home microbiome test plus six months of your personalized Flore NDI formula.
- $564 — bring your own test (BYO). Already tested your microbiome (Viome, Ombre, a prior Flore or Sun Genomics test, a clinic lab)? Upload it and go straight to six months of your personalized formula.
Pay in full, or split into monthly payments at checkout.

Exploring the gut–brain connection in autism?
Many families come to the gut–brain conversation through autism. Flore is exploring the gut–brain connection in autism through precision-microbiome research, and we’re gathering interest from people who’d like to learn more. This is an investigational research study — it is not a treatment, a cure, or a therapy, and the neurobiome test is not a diagnosis of autism. Expressing interest simply tells us you’d like information; it is not enrollment and not consent — any actual participation would come later, with its own eligibility and informed-consent steps.

Frequently asked questions
Is the neurobiome test a diagnosis for anxiety, depression, or autism?
No. It is a wellness tool that gives you insight into your gut–brain microbiome. It does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent anxiety, depression, autism, ADHD, or any condition. For a medical or mental-health concern, please see a licensed clinician.
How much does the Neurobiome Test-to-Treat pathway cost?
It’s priced as a program: $658.50 with the at-home test included (plus six months of your personalized formula), or $564 if you bring your own test results (BYO). To try the gut–brain connection first, start with a targeted gut–brain synbiotic like The Bright One or The Calm One at $49.
What are neurobiome-directed interventions (NDIs)?
An NDI is Flore’s name for a probiotic-and-prebiotic formula built from your own gut data and aimed at the gut–brain axis. It takes what scientists call psychobiotics and matches it to you. Benefits are framed as everyday support, not treatment. More on NDIs.
What does “express interest in autism research” actually mean?
It means you’d like information about Flore’s investigational precision-microbiome research in autism. It is a first, no-obligation intake step — not enrollment, not consent, and not a promise of treatment. Any future participation would have its own eligibility and informed-consent process.
Can I use test results I already have?
Yes — that’s the $564 BYO path. Upload your existing microbiome results in the Flore portal and go straight to your personalized formula.

“I was able to download my microbiome test results and have a customized probiotic created specifically based on those results. That level of personalization is what attracted me to FLORE… I love the Learning Center and all of the educational resources.
