The GI-Map test is a comprehensive stool test that provides insight about your gut's microbiome. Because many conditions and chronic diseases begin in the gut, it is imperative that we understand and assess a patient's gut health. The GI-Map test detects microbes (parasites, fungi/yeast, viruses, opportunistic/overgrowth bacteria, autoimmune triggers, and more) that may be disturbing normal microbial balance or contributing to illness as well as indicators of digestion, absorption, inflammation, and immune function.
How It Works:
Once the test is purchased, it will have the test shipped directly to your home. Collect the specimen and using the prepaid label, ship your sample to Diagnostic Solutions Laboratory. Once the sample has been processed and your results are complete, your dietitian will meet with you to review the results and provide nutrition and lifestyle recommendations.
