What is Gut Health? Understanding the Causes of Digestive issues.

Disease Begins in the Gut:

Do you suffer from bloating? How about frequent constipation, diarrhea, or abdominal cramping?
 
You likely have an imbalance in your gut called dysbiosis which can lead to the above miserable tummy troubles. The good news is a simple, GI map stool test can uncover the root cause of your symptoms. This at home stool test offers insights into your gut health such as yeast overgrowth, bacterial overgrowth, parasite infections, gluten sensitivity, poor gut immune health, and a variety of other common gut conditions. 
 
The issue with gut health is that many of those suffering from poor gut health will not have GI related symptoms. So, how do you know if your symptoms could be gut related? 
 
Do you have skin issues like acne or rosacea? Achy joints or muscle pain? Frequent headaches? worsening anxiety/ depression? Difficulty sleeping? Hormonal imbalance with mood swings / heavy periods / irritability? 
 
The root cause of your symptoms could be the gut! As a functional medicine office we believe Disease Begins in the Gut. We start with a GI Map stool test to give us a complete picture of your gut health. Your GI map results will provide us with the results we need to begin healing your gut and giving you rapid symptom relief.
