Gut Health Testing
Your Gut Holds the Clues to Your Health.
The gut is central to overall well-being, impacting not only digestion but also hormone regulation, immune function, mood, and energy. A comprehensive gut health test provides insights into the balance of your gut microbiome, specifically focusing on:
-
Hormone Health: Gut bacteria like the estrobolome play a role in estrogen metabolism, which is crucial for managing menopausal symptoms.
-
Digestive Wellness: Identify factors contributing to bloating, gas, or discomfort.
-
Mental Clarity & Mood: Gut health is closely connected to mood and cognitive health.
-
Weight Management: Understand the role of gut bacteria in metabolism and weight regulation.
-
Energy: Do you feel constantly tired or low in energy despite healthy eating?
Gut Health Testing Options:
1. Gut Scan Test
Best for: Foundational gut health support, bloating, inflammation, digestion.
This test uses 16s rRNA sequencing to assess your gut microbiome.
It provides insight into key areas like:
-
Gut lining integrity (intestinal permeability)
-
Butyrate production (gut lining support)
-
Tryptophan and vitamin production
-
LPS (inflammation marker) levels
-
Indicators of insulin resistance and systemic inflammation
Turnaround Time: ~4 weeks once the kit is received
$240 + consultation package.
2. DeepGut Test
Best for: Chronic symptoms, hormone changes, complex gut issues.
This Advanced Metagenomic test provides the most in-depth look at your gut microbiome using shotgun sequencing.
What it measures:
-
A wider range of microbes (e.g., Candida, H. pylori, pathogens, and beneficial strains)
-
Antimicrobial resistance genes (for more informed treatment decisions)
-
Metabolite production (e.g., butyrate, B vitamins, neurotransmitters)
-
Gut Health & Diversity Score (a snapshot of inflammation, digestion, and microbiome balance)
$449 + consultation package.

Symptoms It Helps With:
Bloating, IBS, fatigue, hormonal imbalance, stubborn weight, eczema, etc.
Have you noticed changes in digestion, weight, mood, or energy levels? These changes could be linked to shifts in your gut health and hormone balance.
✓ Experience bloating, digestive discomfort, or irregularity.
✓ Struggle with sudden weight gain, especially around the midsection.
✓ Feel constantly tired or low in energy despite healthy habits.
✓ Have mood fluctuations or brain fog.
✓ Want to take a proactive, holistic approach to health during midlife changes.
✓ As women enter perimenopause or menopause, our bodies go through significant changes, many of which can feel unpredictable and even overwhelming. But did you know your gut plays a major role in this journey? It’s not just about digestion – the health of your gut impacts your hormones, particularly estrogen, which can influence the severity of menopausal symptoms.
Let’s talk about the estrobolome, a unique group of gut bacteria that regulates estrogen levels by producing enzymes that convert estrogen into a form your body can absorb. When these bacteria are balanced, they support healthy estrogen levels, crucial for protecting bone health, mood, and cardiovascular function. However, as estrogen declines, imbalances in the gut can worsen symptoms like weight gain, bone density loss, and even cognitive changes.
