$579.00
GI-MAP + Zonulin: This comprehensive stool test uses advanced DNA analysis to assess gut microbiota, pathogens, parasites, yeast, and markers of inflammation and digestion. It provides insights into factors that can influence digestion, immune function, and gastrointestinal symptoms.
The addition of Zonulin provides an indicator of intestinal permeability, offering insight into the integrity of the gut barrier and potential factors contributing to systemic inflammation and immune dysregulation.
GI-MAP:
Bacterial Imbalances: Identifies overgrowths or deficiencies of key gut bacteria that affect digestion and immunity.
Pathogens & Parasites: Screens for harmful bacteria, viruses, parasites, and yeast that can cause gastrointestinal symptoms.
Digestive Markers: Evaluates enzymes, fat absorption, and immune markers that reflect how well digestion and nutrient absorption are functioning.
Inflammation Markers: Assesses intestinal inflammation that may indicate irritation or immune system activation.
Zonulin: A marker of intestinal permeability; elevated levels may suggest that the tight junctions of the gut lining are compromised, potentially allowing larger molecules and toxins into the bloodstream and contributing to systemic inflammation.
