GI-MAP | Gut Health Panel | GI Microbial Assay Plus

$549.00

Research overwhelmingly indicates that gut health impacts overall health. The gut microbiome, in particular, plays a critical role in mediating the effects of diet and other factors on health, including digestive, immune, metabolic, and neuroendocrine functions. Assessing GI health with the proper tools can help practitioners get to the root cause of chronic illness.

The GI-MAP (Microbial Assay Plus) is unique in the field of comprehensive stool testing. It relies exclusively on quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) technology to detect parasites, bacteria, fungi, and more, by targeting the specific DNA of the organisms tested.

This is an at-home stool test: once purchased, the kit will be shipped to the address provided.

Shipping costs are included in the product price.

Cannot ship to NY, NJ, RI, or Internationally.

GI-MAP Allows for the Personalized Treatment Plans and Informative Retests:

The GI-MAP's accuracy and reliability allows practitioners to create personalized treatment protocols to address gut dysfunction based on which infections are urgent, which areas of the gut are already optimized, and which areas should be addressed after an infection is resolved.

Additionally, the quantification offers a remarkable ability to see how treatment modalities are working because a retest after treatment can show whether a parasite has resolved, dysbiosis has improved, and more.

 

Who Should Have the GI-MAP Comprehensive Stool Analysis?

Almost every patient can benefit from a GI-MAP gut health assessment. Some patients are looking to achieve optimal health, while other patients have been chronically ill and frustrated without a diagnosis for years. 

Some conditions that warrant testing are:

  • Autoimmune diseases

  • IBS/IBD

  • Digestive complaints, diarrhea or constipation

  • Brain fog

  • Skin problems, like acne and psoriasis

  • Mood disorders, depression, and anxiety

  • Diabetes and weight loss issues

It’s Simply the Better Test.

Microscopy and culture-based tests are familiar, but they have limitations with sensitivity, specificity, and identifying anaerobic organisms. That is why almost no peer-reviewed GI microbial research studies have used microscopy and culture-based testing methods in over 20 years.

It is estimated that there are over 200 million cases of gastrointestinal disease each year in the United States. Acute or chronic diarrhea caused by bacterial, viral, or parasitic pathogens present in the GI tract, accounts for a significant proportion of the cases. Many of these cases often go undiagnosed and untreated
