How Do FoodMarble Devices Work?

What Do FoodMarble Devices Do?

FoodMarble devices are small handheld tools that use breath analysis to measure how much fermentation is happening in your gut after you eat different foods.

Think of them as activity trackers for your digestion. They don’t diagnose medical conditions, but they can help you better understand how your body responds to foods and identify which foods are most compatible with your unique digestive system.

How FoodMarble can help

AIRE 2 is designed for people who struggle with digestive symptoms such as:

• Bloating
• Abdominal pain
• Constipation
• Diarrhea

Sometimes these symptoms are linked to how the body responds to certain foods. By:

• Logging the foods you eat
• Recording your fermentation levels (breath test scores)
• Tracking your symptoms

…you can start to see connections between specific foods and uncomfortable digestive reactions.

Experimenting with foods

FoodMarble encourages a spirit of discovery. Try experimenting with your diet to see how your fermentation levels and symptoms compare when you:

• Use different amounts of garlic
• Swap one type of cheese for another
• Cook with or without onions

Over time, these experiments can reveal which foods or food types are most compatible with your gut.

Understanding fermentation

It’s worth noting that high fermentation isn’t always a bad thing. Some fermentation is a natural and healthy process. By recording your fermentation scores alongside your symptoms in the FoodMarble app, you can start to distinguish:

• “Good” fermentation — the kind that doesn’t cause discomfort
• “Problematic” fermentation — the kind that triggers unwanted symptoms

A note on medical advice

If you’re unsure about the underlying cause of your digestive issues, it’s always best to consult your doctor first. FoodMarble is here to support you with insights and tracking, but medical guidance is essential for diagnosis and treatment. For SIBO testing and diagnosis, the FoodMarble Healthcare team can help by connecting you with a qualified professional - simply email healthcare@foodmarble.com and the team will guide you through the next steps.

✨ Takeaway: FoodMarble devices empower you to explore how your body responds to food. With consistent use, you’ll gain meaningful insights to help identify the foods that work best for your digestion — and reduce the ones that don’t.
