Testing

Here are several tests you can request from your doctor if you want to investigate the root cause behind your symptoms.

  • IgG Food Antibody Assessment (test for food sensitivities)
  • Microbiome testing (gut bacteria test)
  • Comprehensive Stool Analysis (tests for dysbiosis, parasites, inflammation, blood, etc.)
  • Candida and yeast testing
  • SIBO testing (test for small intestine bacteria overgrowth)

There are many labs that offer this type of testing such as Great Plains Laboratory, Everlywell, Viome, and Genova.
