What is a GI MAP?
Research overwhelmingly indicates that gut health impacts overall health. The gut microbiome, in particular, plays a critical role in mediating the effects of diet and other factors on health, including digestive, immune, metabolic and neuroendocrine functions. Assessing GI health with the proper tools can help practitioners get to the root cause of chronic illness.
The GI-MAP (Microbial Assay Plus) is unique in the field of comprehensive stool testing. It relies exclusively on quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) technology to detect parasites, bacteria, fungi, and more, by targeting the specific DNA of the organisms tested.
What is a GI MAP?
Almost everyone can benefit from a GI-MAP gut health assessment. Some people are looking to achieve optimal health, while others have been chronically ill and frustrated without a diagnosis for years.
Some conditions that warrant testing are:
-AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES
-IBS/IBD DIGESTIVE COMPLAINTS, DIARRHEA OR CONSTIPATION
-BRAIN FOG
-SKIN PROBLEMS, LIKE ACNE AND PSORIASIS
-MOOD DISORDERS, DEPRESSION, AND ANXIETY
-DIABETES AND WEIGHT LOSS ISSUES
Cost
Cost of a GI-MAP is $799. This includes the laboratory cost, and all consults with me. I create a protocol that includes supplements and essential oil to address the issues found on the report. We will meet virtually to discuss the results and your protocol. We will then meet monthly for 90 days, and a maintenance plan will be written to maintain your progress.
Your report will contain 5 pages of information, including the presence of bacterial, viral, fungal and parasitic pathogens, H. Pylori, Commensal bacteria, opportunistic microbes, and intestinal health markers.

"I just got back from my doctor and all my bloodwork is FANTASTIC! I'm beyond excited!
I started GI mapping to heal my gut and followed a protocol with different supports to help my body recover. At that time, I was on several medications for Rheumatoid Arthritis, but little by little, I began weaning off. Six months later, I was completely medication-free.
This entire summer Ive been off my meds, and today my numbers came back better than ever!"
