Gut Check: Test Your Digestive Health

What’s wrong with my digestive system?

Blood tests can measure levels of pancreatic enzymes that help you digest food, detect bowel syndrome conditions and identify nutritional deficiencies. Stool testing can diagnose digestive problems like parasitic infections, H. pylori, even cancer. Breath and saliva testing can show whether digestive bacteria have overgrown your small intestine. Digestive health concerns? These tests can help.

  • Get to the bottom of digestive problems like diarrhea
  • Find out if you're suffering from enzyme deficiency
  • Test for metabolism, lactose intolerance and IBS
  • Determine your risk for Crohn's or Celiac disease
  • Uncover dangerous bacterial or parasitic infections
