GI-MAP Comprehensive Gut Microbiome Test With Zonulin

Research overwhelmingly indicates that our gut health directly impacts our overall health.

The GI-MAP (Gastrointestinal Microbial Assay Plus) test is a comprehensive stool test used to evaluate the gut microbiome and assess various gastrointestinal markers. It provides valuable information about the presence of pathogens, beneficial bacteria, opportunistic organisms, and markers of gastrointestinal function.

Adding zonulin to the GI-MAP test provides additional insight into gut health by measuring the levels of zonulin in the stool. Zonulin is a protein that modulates the permeability of tight junctions between cells in the digestive tract. Elevated levels of zonulin can indicate increased intestinal permeability, often referred to as "leaky gut syndrome."

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.

This test will help pinpoint the causes of gastrointestinal symptoms and other chronic conditions by measuring key markers of digestion, absorption and inflammation.

The GI-MAP comprehensive stool test also uses qPCR technology to detect parasites, bacteria, yeasts, fungi, and more. This comprehensive at-home lab test can provide the answers at the root cause level that can help bring your body back into balance and health.
