This test goes beyond basic checks, screening for a wide range of gut markers including bacteria, parasites, fungi, and viruses that may be linked to symptoms like bloating, irregular stools, skin flare-ups, or food sensitivities. 

✅ Includes GI Axis Microbial Screen
✅ 28 additional markers: Fungi, Parasites, Pathogenic Bacteria, Viruses & Archaea
