31. A computer implemented method comprising:
-
accepting data describing an individual'"'"'s gastrointestinal microbes present at a first time; accepting data regarding the individual'"'"'s health status at the first time; integrating, on a computing device, the accepted data regarding an individual'"'"'s gastrointestinal microbes and the accepted data regarding the individual'"'"'s health status into an individual profile for the first time; comparing the individual profile for the first time to a standard profile; and indicating, to at least one system user, one or more interventions relating to gastrointestinal microbes associated with directing the individual profile for the first time to be closer to the standard profile. - View Dependent Claims (32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42)

43. A computer-implemented method for suggesting adjustments to gastrointestinal microbe profiles over time, comprising:
-
accepting data relating to an individual'"'"'s gastrointestinal tract microbial composition at an initial time; comparing, on a computing device, the data relating to an individual'"'"'s gastrointestinal tract microbial composition at an initial time with at least one standard gastrointestinal tract microbial composition; identifying differences between the data relating to an individual'"'"'s gastrointestinal tract microbial composition at an initial time and one or more of the at least one standard gastrointestinal tract microbial composition; creating an initial difference listing of the identified differences between the data relating to an individual'"'"'s gastrointestinal tract microbial composition at an initial time and one or more of the at least one standard gastrointestinal tract microbial composition; creating at least one initial action plan to alter the individual'"'"'s gastrointestinal tract microbial composition to minimize the initial difference listing; and indicating one or more of the at least one initial action plan to at least one system user. - View Dependent Claims (44, 45, 46, 47, 48)
