What Microbiome Mapping can do for you

The significant impact your gut microbiome has on your overall health is being increasingly validated by emerging research.

You've probably heard that you have a microbiome that contains billions of micro-organisms which have a major influence, not just on your digestion, but on your weight, your mental wellbeing and whole body health overall. By mapping the contents of your gut with a stool analysis, you get an accurate picture of what needs to be tweaked so you can optimise your health.

There's nothing like knowing for sure what's going on in your insides. And testing your poo is a pretty fail safe way to get an accurate picture of how your digestive system is working.

A microbiome map profiles:

• Short chain fatty acid production which have a major role in your metabolism, digestion and immune response.

• The prevalence of beneficial and pathogenic bacteria, clarifying which species you need to concentrate on bolstering to achieve peak health.

• The prevalence of any fungi or parasites ... more common than you think!

• A microbiome map also measures a range of health markers in your faeces, such as the presence of blood, and other markers that indicate inflammation like calprotectin, zonolin and secretory IgA levels.

If you have chronic disordered digestive function, irritable bowel, weight gain, inflammation, low energy, autoimmune or chronic mental illness a thorough investigation into your microbiome can provide a very solid basis upon which to build a treatment plan and resolve your symptoms.
