The Comprehensive Digestive Test

1. Why should I have a Comprehensive Digestive Test?

     With changes in the modern diet, gastrointestinal disorders have become increasingly prevalent. One recent study reported, that over a period of 3 months, gastrointestinal symptoms were experienced in over 70% of American households. Maldigestion, malabsorption abnormal gut flora, parasites, yeast overgrowth and harmful bacteria, as well as many chronic illnesses and symptoms, lie at the root of most common digestive system complaints.
     The Comprehensive Digestive Test provides critical information through a non-invasive tool for evaluating the health status of your digestive tract. This test helps pin point imbalances, provide clues about current symptoms and warn of potential problems should the imbalance progress with state-of-the art assessment. A personalized treatment program can be easily applied, greatly increasing your chances of responding naturally.

2. What can a Comprehensive Digestive Test tell me?

     Think of your body as a finely tuned engine, and food is it's fuel. If you aren't completely digesting foods and absorbing nutrients, you're not adequately fueling your body. The lack of adequate fuel or the inability to use it properly can lead to a variety of health problems. poor digestion or imbalances in your intestinal flora can result in many illnesses, from annoying gastrointestinal complaints such as chronic constipation and abdominal pain to more serious illnesses which may appear to be unrelated to digestion, such as asthma, skin problems, arthritis, fatigue, headaches, diarrhea, yeast infections, hemorrhoids, Fibromyalgia, allergies and a weakened immune system and the list goes on and on.
     The Comprehensive Digestive Test is a group of 15 tests performed on a stool sample, revealing valuable information about your gastrointestinal health. The Comprehensive Digestive Test evaluates digestion efficiency, the presence of hidden yeast or bacterial infections, specific enzyme ranges, intestinal flora balance, the presence of parasites and ova, intestinal immune function, toxic reactions to a certain food group, the presence of occult blood, fecal pH and others. Think of the time and money you spend planning menus, shopping for food, preparing meals and buying vitamin supplements. But are you sure you're getting the most from your food? Or is your diet causing other problems in your body.

3. How Healthy is your Gastrointestinal Tract?

     Do you chew your food thoroughly? That's the first step in good digestion. The mechanical breakdown of your meal begins when your teeth grind food. Saliva triggers the start of the chemical breakdown.
     Once food travels to your stomach, you need adequate amounts of hydrochloric acid to break up dietary proteins. You may be among the millions of Americans who do not produce enough hydrochloric acid. This can cause vitamin and mineral deficiencies, osteoporosis, hardening of the arteries, arthritis, colon cancer, food allergies and autoimmune disease.

     Enzymes take over: Hydrochloric acid and other factors trigger your pancreas to release enzymes once food moves to the small intestine. Pancreatic enzymes play an important role in the digestion of proteins, fats and carbohydrates. An insufficient amount of pancreatic enzymes can contribute to many of the same problems as inadequate stomach acid.
     Nutrients in your food are absorbed into your bloodstream from both the small and large intestine. Food that isn't digested completely will not be absorbed, partially digested proteins can cause significant gastrointestinal irritation (such as colitis, gas or nervous stomach) and can lead to food allergies.

     Bacteria some good, some bad: Many different microbes live in your intestinal tract, and it's normal to have trillions. Ideally, you have "friendly" bacteria to aid with digestion, vitamin production and immune defense. Unfortunately, many common activities can destroy the delicate balance of bacteria. Using antibiotics, steroids or hormone pills, or a diet high in fat and sugar wreaks havoc on bacterial levels, leading to imbalances in bacteria and yeast, which can lead to illness.

     Immune function protects: Chronic infection, food allergies or inadequate nutrition can result in poor immune defenses in your intestine. With lowered resistance, less bacteria are able to colonize, and infection or allergies are more likely to develop.

     Gastrointestinal health is the goal: For proper gastrointestinal health, your body must carefully coordinate the breakdown, absorption and elimination of food. Bacteria must be in proper balance, and immune function must be adequate. The Comprehensive Digestive Test provides an easy, effective evaluation of how well your gastrointestinal tract performs these essential functions.

The Expanded Comprehensive Digestive Test includes all 14 of the above biomarkers and tests plus, food allergies, Toxoplasma Ab, Trichinella, Roundworm and Tapeworm
