Areas covered
This provides an in-depth look at the health of your colon as well as the possibility of overgrowths in your small intestine contributing to chronic digestive symptoms, especially those falling under the IBS umbrella.
The assessments are carried out at home using a stool and breath test. We order and have the test kits sent to you and you send directly back after following the sample and postage instructions provided to you by the lab.
Please note there are specific instructions to follow in the run up to the test. We recommend performing the stool test first and then after that completing the pre-test dietary instructions in preparation for the breath test.
As with all our test packages, we include a recorded video interpretation or written report discussing your results to help you navigate the data provided. You then also have the option of booking in a 1-2-1 consultation with one of our practitioners if you want to dive a little deeper and establish nutrition and lifestyle interventions to improve your results.
