GI-MAP® by Diagnostic Solutions Laboratory "Why am I always bloated?"
See what's tested
- Gut pathogens: bacteria, viruses and parasites
- Microbiome diversity: good vs. harmful bacteria
- Yeast & fungal overgrowth, including Candida
- Leaky gut markers
- Inflammation markers: calprotectin, lactoferrin
- Immune activation: secretory IgA
- Digestive enzyme function: elastase, fat staining
What your results can tell you
- Is an infection behind your symptoms?Checks for gut bugs like H. pylori, C. diff, and parasites such as Giardia.If something is found, take the report to your provider for targeted treatment.
- Is your gut bacteria out of balance?Shows if helpful bacteria are low or less-friendly bacteria have overgrown.Adjust fiber, foods and probiotics based on what your gut actually needs.
- Is yeast part of the problem?Looks for yeast and fungal overgrowth, including Candida.Helps explain bloating and gas, and points to diet changes that may help.
- Are you breaking down food well?Digestive enzyme (elastase) and fat-absorption markers.Low results can explain bloating or loose stools and may point to enzyme support.
- Is your gut lining inflamed or irritated?Inflammation (calprotectin) and gut immune (secretory IgA) markers.Shows whether to focus on calming and repairing the gut, and when to follow up with a doctor.
Many people retest after 3–6 months of changes to see what improved. Results are educational and don't diagnose disease.
