Searching for Gut Microbiome Tests?
We Have Them at Cambiati Wellness Center.
The gut microbiota is gaining worldwide attention. As you have perhaps heard, it is an important part of your immune system and significantly affects your overall health. If you have experienced uncomfortable bloating, cramping, and other common symptoms, you may be interested in our new gut microbiome tests, which are being offered at Cambiati wellness center.
How Gut Microbiome Testing Works
The gut microbiome comprises thousands of microbes, including bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and viruses. These microbes are in an almost constant state of change, influenced by diet, stress, and antibiotic use. Many people have imbalances in their gut microbiome that contribute to digestive problems. Some may even be diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease or irritable bowel syndrome. Gut microbiome tests are performed using stool samples. You will collect a sample at home and send it to our lab for analysis. It normally takes about two weeks for the results to come back. Our doctors can help you interpret your test results and create a plan to address any gut microbiome imbalances.
Most Common Microbiome Tests Available at Our Wellness Center
1. GI-MAP DNA Stool Analysis
The GI-MAP DNA Stool Analysis test is a comprehensive stool test that checks the overall health of your gut microbiome. The test checks for parasites, bacteria (both good and bad), yeast, and fungus and includes markers for inflammation and immune response in the gut. It also analyzes the integrity of your digestive tract using markers for enzymes, pancreatic function, and intestinal barrier function. This test is also included in our Comprehensive Wellness Profile, which also includes hormone testing, vitamin D levels, and an assessment of your cardiovascular biomarkers such as homocysteine and C-reactive protein.
2. The Fecal Occult Blood Test
Fecal Occult Blood Test (FOBT) is a screening stool test used to detect blood in the stool that may indicate colorectal cancer. It is most commonly used as part of a colonoscopy prep to check for any abnormal areas in the colon before the procedure itself because abnormal blood in stool before a colonoscopy may indicate cancerous growths.
3. Comprehensive Gut Microbiome Test
The Comprehensive Gut Microbiome Test provides the most detailed picture of your gut health by analyzing stool samples for more than 100 species of beneficial and harmful microorganisms, including yeast, parasites, fungi, viruses, and bacteria. It also provides an assessment of intestinal inflammation and other markers that may suggest damage to the lining of the intestines. This information can help you make personalized diet and lifestyle changes to support better digestion and overall wellness.
