GI MAP Stool Test: Summary
We are talking about the GI MAP stool test, a foundational lab test used to assess gut health, in today’s Lunch & Learn with hosts Evan Transue and Lucy McKellar from FDN (Functional Diagnostic Nutrition). They discuss how chronic stress impacts gut health, leading to conditions such as dysbiosis, infections, inflammation, and leaky gut, which can further develop into autoimmune issues and toxicity. The GI MAP test, which employs PCR DNA technology, is preferred over stool cultures due to its ability to detect dead pathogens, providing a comprehensive understanding of gut health.
Evan and Lucy share live GI MAP results, specifically from Evan’s own test, to illustrate the test’s functionality. They analyze different sections of the test, including pathogens, normal bacterial flora, and opportunistic bacteria. They also highlight the significance of clinical correlation, where test results are matched with the individual’s symptoms to provide effective treatment recommendations. Particular emphasis is placed on the pervasive presence of H. pylori and its potential health risks, as well as the importance of balancing prebiotic and probiotic intake to maintain healthy gut flora.
Lastly, the hosts address the detection of parasites like Blastocystis hominis and their associated symptoms. They stress the essential role of holistic analysis and individualized treatment protocols, taking into account other foundational labs and the patient’s overall health history. The episode concludes with a brief mention of ongoing educational opportunities through FDN, encouraging listeners to continue exploring integrative health approaches.
