Frequently Asked Questions About Gut Health Testing
Why is gut health important to me?
Your gut is often referred to as your “second brain” because it’s closely connected to overall health. It plays a crucial role in digestion, nutrient absorption, immune function, and mental well-being. Poor gut health can lead to:
-
Bloating & Gas

What happens during my visit and for gut testing?

Other diagnostic tools
We are strong proponents of testing, as it provides critical insights into your gut microbiome.
How long will it take to see results?
Your gastrointestinal evaluation is conducted via telehealth, and we order a comprehensive gut health panel. We then create a personalized treatment plan based on test results, targeting specific pathogens or deficiencies.
By implementing dietary, lifestyle, and supplement changes, long-lasting improvements are typically observed within 6 to 12 months.
Is gut health testing covered by insurance?
Insurance coverage for gut health testing is variable and often not covered. Depending on the test ordered, we can provide a superbill for potential reimbursement.
