GI-MAP

Service Description

The GI-MAP (Microbial Assay Plus) is a comprehensive stool test that relies on quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) technology to detect parasites, bacteria, H. pylori, fungi, and more by targeting the specific DNA of the organisms tested. The GI-MAP is the most accurate, comprehensive DNA stool analysis on the market. Research overwhelmingly indicates that gut health impacts overall health. The gut microbiome plays a critical role in mediating the effects of diet and other factors on digestive, immune, metabolic, skin, brain, and neuroendocrine health. The GI-MAP’s quantitative PCR technology can reveal underlying causes of things such as constipation and bloating, eczema, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), autoimmune diseases and skin conditions, as well as get powerful results on 
H. pylori and the virulence factors associated with it. The GI-MAP helps our providers unravel the root cause of chronic symptoms and develop personalized gut healing protocol treatment plans tailored to optimize overall health and meet to the needs of your unique gut microbiome. Pricing includes the full cost of the testing kit and laboratory testing as well as an additional 45 minute follow up consultation appointment with one of our practitioners to explain your results and assist you with a treatment plan. Results typically take up to 10 days on average once received by the laboratory. **GI-MAP with Zonulin (leaky gut marker) will incur a $50 additional charge ($599).
