The gut influences everything, from digestion and immunity to your mood!

Poor gut health leads to poor overall health—it's as simple as that! If you're dealing with unexplained bloating, constant fatigue, low energy, skin breakouts, a weakened immune system, or persistent brain fog, it might be time to pay attention to your gut health.

What's Included In The Microbiome Assessment?
The Complete Microbiome Mapping Test also includes a comprehensive assessment of gastrointestinal health functional markers that are often not provided by other stool tests on the market, such as:
Calprotectin is an important protein released by neutrophils; a type of white blood cell. When there is inflammation in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, neutrophils move to the area and release calprotectin, resulting in increased levels in the stool. This test measures the level of calprotectin in stool as a way to detect inflammation in the intestines. Importantly, the test differentiates between IBD and IBS.
