Gut Profile Test (GI-MAP test)
What is a Gut Profile Test?
The Gastrointestinal Microbial Assay Plus (GI-MAP) targets a comprehensive panel of microbial, immune and digestive markers. It is an innovative clinical tool that measures gastrointestinal microbiota DNA from a single stool sample with state-of-the-art technology.
The GI-MAP is designed to detect microbes that may disturb normal microbial balance or contribute to illness, as well as indicators of digestion, absorption, inflammation, and immune function.
The GI-MAP's accuracy and reliability allow personalised protocols to address gut dysfunction based on which infections are urgent, which areas of the gut are already optimised, and which areas should be addressed after an infection is resolved. A retest after treatment can also show whether a parasite has resolved, dysbiosis has improved, and more.
Family testing can also be beneficial as all family members are generally exposed to the same environmental conditions. Discounts are available for family testing and analysis.
Symptoms of Microbial inbalance:
Autoimmune molecular mimicry (if caused by pathogens)
Diarrhoea
Digestion
Foodborne illness
Gastritis
Gastroenteritis (if it has viral causes)
Gut dysbiosis
Immunity
Inflammation
Suspected bacterial, parasitic, or viral pathogenesis (incl. detection of antibiotic resistant bacteria)
