FIT 132 Food Sensitivity Test

The FIT test (Food Inflammation Test) employs unique methods that detect both IgG antibody and Immune Complexes together to determine the reactivity of each sample against up to 176 foods that most frequently yield reactions on the regular FIT Test. Measuring IgG and Immune Complexes together increases the sensitivity over other tests which measure IgG alone.

GI-Map (GI Microbial Assay Plus)

GI Microbial Assay Plus (GI-MAP™) is 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. Available with Zonulin.
