A great service

A great service. Blood and faecal tests all completed inside a working week with a useful commentary and downloadable lab reports that will result in some treatment (finally) from my doctor. Very relieved. Highly recommended for the speed and clarity of the analysis.

What's tested in your Complete Gut Health Test & Symptom Screen?

Our Complete Gut Health Test uses both blood and stool samples to look at 10 biomarkers checking for:

Gut Inflammation
Gut inflammation is a common cause of gut symptoms such as stomach pain and diarrhoea.
WHAT'S MEASURED?
- Faecal calprotectin is a sensitive marker of inflammation in the gut.
Bowel Cancer Risk
Bowel cancer affects 1-in-15 of us and the main symptoms are a change in bowel habit, stomach pain and blood in the stool. A qFIT test is the gold-standard test to check for blood in the stool.
WHAT'S MEASURED?
- The quantitative faecal immunochemical test (qFIT) detects blood in the stool which is a sensitive marker for bowel cancer.
Coeliac Disease Risk
Coeliac disease affects 1% of the population and most people don't know they have it. It causes indigestion, stomach pain, diarrhoea and weight loss. We check for tissue transglutaminase IgA antibodies.
WHAT'S MEASURED?
- Raised levels of tissue transglutaminase antibodies are a marker of coeliac disease.
H. pylori Infection
Helicobacter pylori infection affects up to 1-in-5 of us in the UK. It causes stomach inflammation and ulcers which causes indigestion symptoms.
WHAT'S MEASURED?
- A biomarker for the presence of Helicobacter pylori in the gut.
Gut Bacteria & Parasites
Gut infections with bacteria and parasites can cause a variety of gut symptoms. Gut infections are generally more common if you've been travelling abroad or in contact with someone else who's had gut symptoms. We use PCR to test specifically for *Giardia*, *Cryptosporidia*, *Salmonella*, *Shigella*, *Campylobacter* and toxic *E. coli* (VTEC).
WHAT'S MEASURED?
- Salmonella is common bacterial infection from contaminated food.
- Shigella is spread by contaminated food or water and sometimes sexual contact.
- Campylobacter is one of the commonest bacterial gut infections.
- E. coli is a common bacteria that all of us have in our gut but some strains can produce a toxin causing gastroenteritis.
- Giardia is often spread by contaminated water - lakes, rivers or pools. It can cause chronic gut issues with bloating, cramps and diarrhoea.
- Cryptosporidium is one of the commonest parasite infections in the UK. It's often spread via contaminated 'recreational water' such as swimming pools.
Thyroid Health
Thyroid disease is the one of the commonest autoimmune diseases in the UK. An overactive thyroid causes diarrhoea and weight loss while an underactive thyroid causes constipation and weight gain.
WHAT'S MEASURED?
- Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) stimulates the thyroid gland to make thyroid hormones. A low TSH indicates an overactive thyroid while a high TSH indicates an underactive thyroid.
