Microbiome Testing

Gut Health & microbiome testing

"All disease begins in the gut" -Hippocrates. 

Gut health is a key starting point for all patients, of any age that I work with to help get to the root cause of symptoms like constipation/diarrhoea, bloating, pain/cramping, food intolerances, long-term poor health, etc. which helps us address a much bigger picture. 

Comprehensive Microbiome testing is available to be ordered, where appropriate. The microbiome testing will highlight many key areas of your health including:

• Microbial diversity and richness

• Bacterial species identification; up to 28,000 species

• The production of microbial markers (with the genetic potential to produce metabolites)

• Investigative gastrointestinal markers; fecal pH, calprotectin, and fecal occult blood

• Presence and relative abundance of bacteria with species identification

• Targeted diet, supplemental, and lifestyle suggestions based on your results

You will receive a comprehensive report breakdown of your results, written by me, a PDF copy of your test results, resources, handouts and recipes to compliment your treatment protocol, all presented in a display folder for you to keep.

The testing is available to patients over the age of 13.
