THIS IS FOR YOU IF

Your baby has symptoms that "they'll grow out of it" hasn't explained.

Most parents land here after months of trying. Elimination diets while breastfeeding. Switching formulas. Probiotics, drops, creams. Googling at 2am. A GP visit that ended in "it's probably just a phase." What they haven't had is a look at what's actually happening inside.

Eczema & skin

Constipation

Colic & crying

Allergies & reactions

Reflux

Poor sleep

Baby eczema can sometimes be a gut signal, not just a skin problem.

The microbiome plays a role in priming the immune system in the first years of life – when it's out of balance, the skin is often where it shows first. Alba identifies what's happening in your baby's gut specifically, and tracks whether it improves.

THE ALBA RESTORE JOURNEY

Understanding is the first step.

Restoring takes time to confirm.

Adjusting feeding or introducing probiotics is a start – but is it making a difference? The Restore Programme gives you certainty, with a second test that shows exactly what's changed in your baby's gut. Proof, not just hope.

1. Test

An at-home gut microbiome analysis, specific to your child. Results in 3–4 weeks.

2. Understand

Your personalised report explains what's out of balance – and why it's linked to their symptoms.

3. Restore

Follow a plan built around your child's data. Food, supplements, habits – specific to them.

4. Track

Test 2 shows exactly what's changed. Your second plan sets what comes next.

The first 1,000 days shape a lifetime of health.

From conception to age two, the gut microbiome develops faster than at any other point in life. The bacterial communities established in this window influence immune function, digestion, metabolism, and even brain development for decades to come. Understanding and supporting the microbiome now – when it's still actively forming – is one of the highest-impact thing you can do for your child's long-term health.

Everything you need on your child's journey to a balanced gut.

The Gut Restore Programme is built around the reality that changing the gut microbiome takes time – and you deserve to know it's working.

A quick at-home stool sample, easy to collect at home. Everything's in the kit; post it back with the prepaid label. Results in your Alba app in 3–4 weeks

Week 3

What's present, what's missing, and what it means for their specific symptoms. An action plan covering food, probiotics and habits, built around your child's microbiome.

Week 4

    At five months old, my daughter developed dermatitis on her face and neck, with eczema patches across her body. Nothing seemed to help. Alba’s stool test confirmed she was missing a specific strain of gut bacteria. With a targeted probiotic and gentle dietary changes, her skin completely cleared. No more rashes, no more eczema.

    It was very interesting to do such a comprehensive and detailed test of our daughter’s gut microbiome. Our daughter is two years old and has had recurring issues with constipation and eczema, and this has helped tremendously by giving us tailored advice on what to add to or remove from her diet, specifically adapted to our child.
