Comprehensive Stool Analysis

This comprehensive stool test helps pinpoint the causes of gastrointestinal symptoms and chronic systemic conditions, and measures key markers of digestion, absorption and inflammation as well as occult blood. It contains comprehensive bacteriology and yeast cultures to identify the presence of beneficial flora, imbalanced flora including Clostridium species, and dysbiotic flora, as well as the detection of infectious pathogens and parasites by PCR and other gold standard methods. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing to prescriptive and natural agents is also performed for appropriate cultured bacterial and fungal species at no additional charge.  The add on test for Zonulin provides information whether leaky gut is an issue. This test includes the Zonulin test. 

The kit comes with instructions, collection aid and test tubes. The kit also includes a Fedex pak and prepaid Airwaybill to send the samples to the lab directly (for US customers only). If you live outside the USA, you have to organize your own express shipping to the lab at your expense.
