Description
The Stool DNA Test we provide examines the human microbiome as a whole, giving a complete picture of your intestinal microbial community. DNA sequencing is used to map each of the 300 to 1,000 bacterial species that live with us in our guts, giving a complete picture of the diversity, species richness and relative abundance of your microbiome. Unlike tests available from other providers that specifically target only the important bacteria, our Stool DNA Tests produce a complete human microbiome map.
In the video below, we explain why it is necessary to buy the microbiome test with a health assessment. In addition to recording complaints, medical history, clinical symptoms and family history, the health assessment identifies your actual individual microbiome-related risks that are essential for the evaluation of the microbiome findings.
Then further tests are assigned which will form the basis for personalised therapy in the future.
One of the most important services offered by our clinic is Stool DNA Testing, also known as microbiome testing, which is available from several healthcare providers, but the service behind each test is not the same. In the video below, we explain how the test offered by our clinic differs from other tests.
How to take the sample? The sample is analysed to accurately map the gut flora and plan a targeted, personalised diet and lifestyle change. However, proper sampling is essential. Here’s what to look out for to make sure you get a quality sample, so as not to have to repeat it.
