GI Mapping
GI Mapping
GI Mapping is a sophisticated stool test that uses advanced DNA analysis to evaluate the health of your gastrointestinal tract. It provides a detailed map of your gut microbiome, assessing the presence of beneficial bacteria, pathogenic microorganisms, fungi, parasites, and viruses. Additionally, it measures key markers of inflammation, digestion, absorption, and immune function.
Benefits of GI Mapping
- Identifies Gut Dysbiosis: GI Mapping detects imbalances in the gut microbiome, revealing whether there is an overgrowth of harmful bacteria or a deficiency in beneficial bacteria. This information is crucial for restoring balance and promoting a healthy gut environment.
- Detects Infections and Pathogens: The test can identify a wide range of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. Early detection of these harmful microorganisms allows for timely intervention and treatment.
- Assesses Digestive Function: GI Mapping evaluates digestive markers such as elastase, steatocrit, and beta-glucuronidase, providing insights into how well your digestive system is breaking down and absorbing nutrients.
- Monitors Inflammatory Markers: Inflammation in the gut can lead to various health issues. GI Mapping measures markers like calprotectin and eosinophil protein X, helping to identify and address inflammation before it becomes a chronic problem.
- Evaluates Immune Function: The test assesses secretory IgA levels, an important indicator of gut immune function. This helps in understanding how well your gut is defending against infections and maintaining overall immune health.
