About the test

Our most comprehensive test, the Ultimate Gut Health Test uses a combination of qPCR testing and 16s rRNA sequencing to provide extensive insight into gut health. It includes helminths, leaky gut and pathogenic bacteria analysis, to give you the deepest insights, as well as the microbial markers (bacteria, yeast, parasites) in our other stool tests.

You’ll get a thorough, extensive, clinically relevant report into gut health, so you can achieve meaningful changes with your clients. The test will identify any underlying imbalances or concerns, so you’ll be able to make accurate recommendations to support your clients’ health in the best possible way.

Disclaimer: This test is only available through a Healthpath Pro practitioner.
