Root Cause:
Gut Lab Testing

•  Identifies Dysbiosis: Reveals imbalances in gut bacteria, such as overgrowth of harmful bacteria or deficiencies in beneficial ones.
• Guides Protocols: Provides valuable insights for personalized wellness plans, including targeted pre and probiotic foods and supplementation when indicated, to promote a healthier balance of gut bacteria.
• Assesses Digestive Function: Measures markers related to digestion, absorption, inflammation, and immune function, offering a comprehensive view of gut health. This may help identify factors contributing to digestive symptoms such as bloating, gas, or irregular bowel movements.

•  Mood and Mental Health: Emerging research suggests a strong connection between the gut microbiome and mental health. Imbalances in gut bacteria have been linked to mood disorders such as depression and anxiety. By restoring microbial balance through targeted interventions based on microbiome testing results, improvements in mood and overall well-being may be achieved.

• Tracks Progress: Allows for monitoring of treatment effectiveness and gut health improvements over time through follow-up testing.

Functional lab testing offers a proactive approach to health management by identifying underlying issues that traditional diagnostic methods may overlook. It empowers individuals and practitioners with targeted insights for personalized health optimization and disease prevention.
