What You'll Be Able to Do
- 01

Learn to read the client before the report, then work through reports from tests such as Tiny Health and NirvanaBiome using a clear interpretation hierarchy.
- 02
Build the Terrain Map
Translate what the report shows into a terrain map of the client in front of you, with a step-by-step decision tree library for each layer.
- 03
Deliver a 12-Week Client Program
Turn your clinical reasoning into a structured client program that runs privately or in groups, with a clear weekly session format.
The Curriculum
The course begins with the terrain framework, the three client archetypes, and the layers of the gut barrier. From there it moves into report interpretation, food as ecosystem medicine, and the Flourish Framework. It finishes with delivery, including the 12-week client roadmap, the connections between the gut and the rest of the body, long-term resilience, and building your own practice playbook. Every module is supported by handouts and tools for use with clients.
How the Course Works
The course is self-paced, and every module is open from Day 1. The modules are grouped into a suggested four-month pace, and each month includes a live Q&A call with Anu where you can bring questions and submit them ahead of time.

The 12-Week Client Program
This is the 12-week program you deliver to clients once you have worked through the course. Every client moves through the same three-phase arc, paced to their terrain, history, and readiness. Twelve weeks is the length where buy-in holds for group programs, and for private clients the program can be extended.
Orientation
Clients meet their microbes, learn how Gut Clarity Lab works, and see why the program goes slow before it goes deep.
Stabilize
Reduce symptom load so the signal becomes easier to see. Observation is the intervention, and replenishing is as important as removing.
Build
Expand capacity, with testing and the terrain map guiding which parts of the ecosystem to build at the pace the client can hold.
Sustain
Build resilience and confidence, move from restriction to flexibility, and review progress across the full 12 weeks.
Your clients in the Sage app
During the program, clients use the Sage app for short weekly lessons that go along with their sessions with you.
Who It's For
Gut Clarity Lab is designed for practitioners who work with clients on gut health and want a clear, repeatable way to move from a microbiome report to a structured client program, whether they work one-to-one or run groups.
Common Questions

Do I need to be using Tiny Health to take this course?
No. The course covers report interpretation for tests such as Tiny Health and NirvanaBiome, so you can work with the test that fits your clients.
What do my clients receive?
Your clients use the Sage app during their 12-week client program, moving through short lessons week by week alongside their sessions with you.
Can I run the client program with groups?
Yes. The course covers delivering the client program both privately and in groups, and includes group facilitation tools and program templates to help you get started.
How is this different from MCSC?
The Microbiome Clinical Science Certificate builds your foundation in microbiome science. Gut Clarity Lab puts that science to work in practice, with a framework for interpreting reports, building a terrain map, and delivering a 12-week client program. The two courses complement each other.
