Complete Microbiome Mapping Test

The test kit includes an instruction booklet on how to complete the test, as well as important pre-collection information.

In the last few decades, DNA analysis has transformed the field of microbiology and gut health testing. The Human Microbiome Project and research around the globe have characterized the GI microbiome. More than ever before, we are keenly aware of the health benefits and disease risks brought about by the microorganisms that inhabit the GI tract.

The (CMM), was designed to assess a patient’s microbiome from a single stool sample, with particular attention to microbes that cause disease or that disrupt normal microbial balance and contribute to perturbations in the GI flora and contribute to illness.

The panel is a comprehensive collection of microbial targets as well as immune and digestive markers. It screens for pathogenic bacteria, commensal bacteria, opportunistic pathogens, fungi, viruses, and parasites.

The CMM is an at-home stool test, which is sent to a lab in Australia. The turn around time is about 2-3 weeks and the price of the test includes a free consultation. We will be in contact as soon as your test results are back to organise a time to discuss your results.
