Most people have never seen a single data point about their own gut.
This week, measure first. Then build the habit.
A microbiome test for insight, then three daily staples: fiber, a probiotic, and colostrum. For qualified customers, all of it may be HSA/FSA eligible with a letter of medical necessity.

Start With What Is Actually There
|
|
An at-home microbiome test gives insight into what is living in your gut right now. Your next step comes from your own results, not a guess.
For a lot of people, the first gap is a simple one: fiber. Most of us don't get enough, which makes it a natural first habit.
|
|
|
|
Then Make It Daily
|
|
Data only helps if something changes. Fiber, a probiotic, and colostrum are simple places to start. Once a day, added to the routine you already have.
None of that requires a diagnosis to try. A purchase becomes HSA or FSA eligible only when it treats, mitigates, or prevents a diagnosed condition, and an independent licensed practitioner documents that connection with a letter.

What's in John Capodilupo's health stack?
|
|
John Capodilupo co-founded WHOOP and helped put strain, recovery and sleep on millions of wrists. His next act is
Throne, a smart sensor that clips onto your toilet and automatically tracks your gut health and hydration. Think WHOOP for your poop. You use the bathroom like you always do, and
Throne does the rest. His routine runs on one rule: "consistency beats intensity."

|
Morning
|
|
Up around 6:45, in the same window every day. Water before caffeine, with most of his fluids front-loaded into the first hour. Then a walk with his dog Baci, some morning light, and supplements with breakfast.
|
|
|
Measure
|
|
WHOOP for sleep, "almost exclusively."
Throne for everything WHOOP can't see. John has lived with ulcerative colitis for more than a decade, and after WHOOP he knew the data that matters most is the data you never have to work for, so he built the tool he needed. "For most of my life the only data I had about my gut was memory and vibes. Now it's objective, and I don't have to log a thing."

|
|
Reset
|
|
Ten minutes of Calm midday to regroup and recharge. He cooks most nights, fiber-forward, and aims for the same bedtime every night, though he admits putting down screens is the hard part.

Parting Advice?
|
|
"The ultimate health hack: a dog. Baci is pure joy, stress relief and companionship, and needing to go on walks is a constant reminder to get the steps in."
