Gut Microbiome
What does Gut Microbiome measure?
This test evaluates the composition and diversity of microorganisms in the gut, including bacteria and other microbes. It may be used to help assess patterns in the gut microbiome that could be relevant when investigating digestive health, dietary factors, or changes associated with certain health conditions. Results are interpreted alongside medical history, symptoms, and other laboratory or clinical findings.
