Lord's Mark Industries Gets Licence for Gut Microbiome Analytics Platform

A company in India called Lord's Mark Industries has received a licence for a new kind of health test.

The test is called Biomescan and it looks at the tiny organisms living in your stomach, known as the gut microbiome.

Your gut is home to trillions of these tiny organisms, which help with digestion and staying healthy.

The test uses special computer analysis to understand your gut and suggest what foods might be good for you.

The company wants to help people stay healthy before they get sick, instead of only treating sickness later.

They plan to open 3,000 health centres across India in the next three years.

The company also thinks the test might help with questions about having babies, but scientists have not proven that yet.

The company's leader says healthcare should focus on preventing problems, not just fixing them.
