Breathe Out. Unlock the Inside Story.

Every time you breathe out there are thousands of chemicals on your breath. Our simple, completely painless breath analysis looks at these chemicals to see how well your body is working on the inside. But we don’t just report on your levels — we help you understand what it means. You’ll receive expert interpretation of your report, along with clear, personalised advice on how to support and improve your health. OMED Health Inside Insights can help you discover more about your:

Gut Health

Provides insights into how your gut is functioning — and whether your microbiome is diverse, balanced, and supporting whole-body health.

Liver Health

Measures the level of a compound called limonene in your breath. Your body clears limonene through the liver and a high level can indicate that your liver is working harder than normal.

Pollution Exposure

Tracks recent exposure to everyday pollutants and harmful chemicals. High levels may affect your health over time.

What to expect when giving a breath sample

What to Expect in Your Report

A single breath test provides a snapshot of how your gut, liver, and environment may be influencing your health, using key chemical markers found in your breath.

Gut Health

  • Short and Branched-Chain Fatty Acids (SCFAs and BCFAs) – such as butyric acid and isovaleric acid, known to support immune regulation, energy metabolism, and gut barrier integrity.
  • Organic Sulfur Compounds – including dimethyl disulfide and methyl thiocyanate, linked to bacterial overgrowth, infections, and systemic inflammation.
  • Aromatic and Sulfur Compounds – come from breaking down protein and sulfur-rich foods like meat, eggs, and garlic. May give clues about microbial balance and digestion.

Liver Health

  • Limonene – a natural compound from foods like citrus. Your body clears limonene through the liver and a high level can indicate that your liver is working harder than normal.

Pollution Exposure

  • Indoor and Household Chemicals – include solvents from paints, cleaners, and new materials. Suggest possible exposure to indoor air pollutants.
  • Smoke and Air Pollution Markers – may indicate exposure to smoke, fuel fumes, or urban air.
  • Cooking Emission Compounds – linked to fried, roasted, or flavored foods. Can reflect recent dietary exposure.

Together, these biomarkers paint a detailed picture of your gut microbial activity and its potential impact on your overall health, from metabolic function and immune balance to brain health and disease susceptibility.
