Miska Salemann Revamps Diet After $279 Viome Test Flags Gut Issues

1 articles · Updated · New York Post · Aug 13

Summary

  • $279 Viome testing prompted Miska Salemann to cut back on cruciferous vegetables, reintroduce dairy and focus on a more varied diet after results flagged sulfide gas production and oxalate metabolism issues.
  • More than 2,500 biomarkers fed into over 25 gut-health scores and 370 personalized food recommendations, with the stool-sample test taking about three weeks to return results.
  • Viome says roughly 90% of users who follow its plan see measurable improvements within 90 days, including 72% reporting better digestion and 67% better sleep, though the company says the test is not diagnostic.
  • Salemann said three weeks on Viome's personalized supplements and gut formula — costing about $169 a month — coincided with steadier digestion, more energy and improving sleep scores.
