GI – Stool Testing

Most clients walk into our office complaining at some degree of gastrointestinal issues, such as bloating, flatulence, heartburn and erratic bowel movements. All of those are telling signs of gastrointestinal disturbance, as a result of our toxic environment, poor diet and high stress levels.

Gastrointestinal integrity is vital to optimal health because most of our immune system resides in the gut, and its ability to shun foreign toxins while absorbing life-sustaining nutrients is a phenomenon known as “energy metabolism”. Efficient energy metabolism provides us with sufficient energy throughout the day with minimal rollercoaster crashes of energy.

Our GI kit tests for gastrointestinal integrity by detecting presence of yeast, bacteria, candida, and other strains of harmful creatures residing in your gut. Additionally, it also tests for food allergens such as gluten, dairy, eggs, and soy intolerance. Individuals living with yeast, bacteria or candida will often experience symptoms similar to food allergens such as diarrhea, bloating or flatulence, and it is almost impossible to detect their presence without the appropriate testing.

If the stool test reveals even a mild population of harmful toxins, David Allen Nutrition has natural therapies to target and eradicate them to clear, heal and repopulate the gastrointestinal tract with beneficial bacteria that help metabolize fiber, boost the immune system and improve cognitive function.
