NostraBiome and Regina Maria — from a microbiome test to daily personalised recommendations, with the DeepGene kit and the Nostra AI app

Bucharest, October 2026 — NostraBiome and the Regina Maria Healthcare Network announce a strategic partnership that makes NostraBiome technology and the Nostra AI platform available through more than 300 collection points across Romania, within a medical network serving over 2 million patients every year.

The partnership marks an important shift in how patients can understand and care for their microbiome health: from a one-off analysis to a personalised experience that continues for months, learns about each patient and offers practical recommendations every day.

With Nostra AI, the microbiome is no longer an isolated result. Information about gut microorganisms is connected with medical tests, genetics, clinical history, diet, treatments and each person's symptoms.

Based on this integrated biological profile, the platform offers personalised recommendations on what to eat, which habits to change, which activities to prioritise and which supplements may suit your needs, taking into account medical history and possible contraindications.

Your microbiome is not static. Neither should your recommendations be.

The human body is constantly changing. Diet, stress, sleep, medication and lifestyle influence how we feel and how the gut ecosystem works.

A microbiome test can provide valuable information about a single moment. But what do you do with that information over the following days, weeks and months?

This is the question NostraBiome sets out to answer.

Nostra AI builds a personalised model of each patient using test results and other available medical information. As patients log their symptoms, habits and progress, the platform updates its recommendations to the new context.

You don't just get a microbiome report. You get a personalised guide that stays with you every day.

What to eat. What to change. What to do. Based on your biology.

Nostra AI turns complex microbiome and health information into recommendations patients can integrate into everyday life.

From food choices and lifestyle adjustments to supplement information, symptom tracking and understanding individual response, the experience is built around one simple idea:

There is no single recommendation that fits everyone. Every person has a unique biological context.

Recommendations evolve with the information available about the patient, without replacing a doctor's diagnosis, treatment or decisions.

Already have a microbiome test? You can start from there.

The new experience is designed both for people who want a new test and for those who already have microbiome results.

Patients can start with their existing results, which they can bring into Nostra AI, or choose testing through the Regina Maria network.

With NostraBiome packages, testing can come with a 6-month subscription to personalised recommendations and continuous digital support, so the experience doesn't end when the results arrive.

Regina Maria's 300+ collection points bring this experience closer to patients across the country.

From testing to continuous care, between medical visits

“We built NostraBiome around a simple question: why should a microbiome test end with a PDF?

Our biology changes every day. What we eat, how we sleep, the treatments we follow and how we respond to them matter as much as a single test result.

With Nostra AI, we are turning microbiome testing into a continuous experience in which every person receives practical recommendations adapted to their own biology.

Our partnership with Regina Maria lets us bring this technology to national scale and take an important step from testing to personalised support, including in the time between medical visits.

Our vision is for every patient to know not only what is happening in their body, but also what they can concretely do, every day, to feel better.”

— Călin Popescu, CEO and co-founder, NostraBiome

Connected with your doctor. Continuous care between visits.

What happens to a patient in the three or six months between two appointments can be just as important as what the doctor observes in the clinic.

How has the condition evolved? Which symptoms appeared or improved? How did the body respond to treatment? Which changes in diet, sleep, lifestyle or medication might have influenced the outcome?

More often than not, this information is fragmented, forgotten or hard to piece together during an appointment.

Nostra AI connects the patient's everyday experience with the care provided by the doctor.

Between medical visits, the platform follows the information patients log, symptom evolution, lifestyle changes, treatments and available test results. Based on these, it builds a longitudinal picture of each person's progression and identifies changes or possible factors associated with improving or worsening symptoms.

With the patient's consent, the doctor can access a structured summary of the period between appointments, to better understand what happened in the recent weeks or months, how the patient progressed and what deserves further investigation.

This way, the next appointment no longer starts only with the question “How have you been since we last saw each other?”, but from a much more complete picture of the patient's progression.

In parallel, Nostra AI keeps offering practical daily recommendations, personalised to the biological profile, symptom evolution and the care plan established together with the doctor.

The patient receives guidance every day. The doctor gets a clearer picture of the progress between visits. And care becomes a continuous process, not a series of isolated appointments.

Nostra AI does not replace the doctor and does not autonomously establish diagnoses or treatments. Its role is to support the patient in everyday life and to give the doctor relevant information for clinical decisions.

Availability

Patients can access the NostraBiome experience through the Regina Maria network, choosing a package with testing and 6 months of continuous recommendations, or an option that uses microbiome results they already have.
