Odor Microbiome Test Kit

Parallel's Odor Microbiome Test Kit allows you to understand your skin’s microbial ecosystem as it pertains to your natural smell. Parallel uses the most advanced sequencing technology available today. This kit contains two swabs – one to swab your armpits and one control. The resulting report provides an assessment of the microbial ecosystem in your armpits, highlighting the top good and bad microbes (bacteria, viruses, fungi, etc.). By understanding your skin microbiome that reflects your natural odor, you can choose the right products and solutions. Conducting the test is easy, requiring less than a minute. Video tutorials and step-by-step instructions available with every kit. Results provided within 2-4 weeks of receiving back samples. 10-min consultation with a Parallel physician included.

Why your skin microbiome is important:

There is an entire ecosystem of microbes that lives on your skin, otherwise known as your skin microbiome. Just like you, your skin microbiome is unique. Scientists now understand that your skin microbiome changes, on average, twice per year. However, it can sometimes fluctuate more often, but especially if you're going through a life change -- whether that change has to do with diet, environment, new partners, new fur-babies, or stress. The state of your skin microbiome is vastly important to your health: when in balance, your skin microbiome can help support skin health, resilience, and aging; when out-of-balance, your skin microbiome can result in inflammation, redness, blemishes & breakouts, and advanced aging.
