Intro to Gut Health
What is the Bacteria & Parasite Test?
Using a growth-based culture, the standard of practice in clinical microbiology, as well as sensitive biochemical assays and microscopy, this thorough stool test evaluates the status of beneficial and pathogenic microorganisms including aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, yeast and parasites. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing to prescriptive and natural agents is also performed to look for appropriate bacterial and fungal species.
What is the OAT?
If you’re looking for one lab that really does it all, it would be the Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test! Using just this simple at-home, urine collection lab you can assess how well your digestive system is functioning, along with your energy and mood metabolites. Plus, you’ll be able to actually see whether you’re truly getting all the vitamins you need from your current diet plan. This is the "go-to" lab when you want to find out how well your body is doing from the inside out!

What is the Testing Process?
Once you receive your at-home lab tests, please follow the instructions provided to register your lab. This bundle requires both stool and urine samples. Your test will include detailed instructions on how to obtain your sample(s).
Once sample(s) are received by the lab, it will take approximately 3 weeks for the results to be available for review in order to create your customized report.
Please note that on rare occasions, high volumes at the lab may result in processing delays. Note that if this occurs, we do not have the ability to speed up lab processing.
