Embodiments of the present systems and methods may provide techniques that may profile and quantify the microbiome and metabolome and identify the novel health, lifestyle, and environmental-related proteins that they affect. Embodiments may provide the capability for the classification of patients or other biological entities into clinical or non-clinical but related groups and labels, based on assessment of their microbiome and metabolome. Embodiments may provide the capability to assess patient health, identify disease risk factors, identify, and rank therapeutic targets, determine the functional contributions of the microbiome to patient health, and even predict outcomes such as disease development and drug response. Other embodiments may provide consumers with lifestyle related information and comparisons with other consumers' data, potentially allowing consumers to tailor lifestyle choices such as nutrition, exercise, and supplementation. Furthermore, other embodiments may provide health assessments that pertain to animal or environmental related entities.
