Complete Microbiome Map Stool Test
Assess the gut microbiome from a single stool sample, with particular attention to microbes that cause disease or that disrupt normal microbial balance and contribute to perturbations in the GI flora and contribute to illness. The test panel is a collection of microbial targets, screening for specific bacteria, parasites, key viruses, fungi/yeasts, as well as commensal bacteria and opportunistic pathogens. Stool chemistry includes gut immunity indicators and digestive markers.
Comprehensive Stool Testing is Indicated in a Range of Common Conditions
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
- Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Crohns, Colitis)
- Abdominal cramps or pain
- “Leaky gut” symptoms
- Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO). Note that while stool testing cannot diagnose SIBO, the test is an excellent accompaniment as it maps out the impact on the gut flora.
- Allergies
- Skin problems (acne, rosacea, psoriasis, eczema)
- Weakness/fatigue
- Diarrhoea, constipation
- Bloating, excessive gas, foul odour
- Histamine (or other food) intolerance
NOTE: All test results are best delivered by a qualified practitioner in the context of a full health history. You will require a consultation with one of our health consultants to discuss the test results and review in view of your general health and wellness goals, or to your specified qualified health practitioner.
