Items tested

 

The CMM tests for the following (please note that for an exhaustive list, see the sample report):

  • The presence of blood, mucous and food remnants including starches, meat and vegetable fibres, and fat particles.

  • Beneficial Bacteria (also referred to as Probiotic Bacteria such as Bifidobacterium Longum, Escherichia Coli)

  • Pathogenic Bacteria (harmful bacteria such as Campylobacter, Salmonella, Yersinia)

  • Yeasts (such as Candida Albicans, Rhodotorula)

  • Parasites (such as Giardia Lamblia, Cryptosporidium)

  • Antibiotic Sensitivities (such as Amoxicillin, Augmentin, Trimethoprim

 

The Complete Microbiome Map is an advanced non-invasive diagnostic tool for assessing gastrointestinal function. As this combines a large number of tests that assess the function of the GUT (gastrointestinal tract), a comprehensive picture of your client's gut health will be formed.

The analysis investigates digestion, metabolism, absorptionmetabolic markers, pancreatic function, the balance of beneficial bacteria and the presence of harmful bacteria, yeast and parasites & worms.

  • Fatigue

  • Food allergies and sensitivities

  • Gastrointestinal cancers

  • Headaches

  • Inflammatory bowel disease

  • Irritable bowel syndrome

  • Maldigestion

  • Multiple sclerosis

  • Rheumatoid arthritis

  • Schizophrenia

  • Skin conditions

  • Ulcers

Gastrointestinal Health

 

The gastrointestinal tract (GI tract) has three main functions:

  • To digest and absorb important nutrients for the healthy growth, cell repair and function

  • To act as a barrier to keep harmful substances, antigens and microorganisms from entering the blood

  • Elimination of waste products and toxins

The GI tract influences not only GI health. It is also known as the ‘second brain’ and affects the entire body.

 

Within the gastrointestinal tract more than 500 different bacterial species, in excess of 10 organisms per gram of wet weight, can be detected. These bacteria also play a key role in digestion, nutrition, pathogen defence and immune system development. When the function and interplay within this complex system is disturbed, ill-health can easily develop.

 

Multiple areas can influence this fine balance including digestion, absorption, the location, number and specific species of bacteria, parasitic infection, as well as epithelial integrity (lining of the gut) and inflammation.

 

Symptoms

 

Typical symptoms on why we order this test;

  • Diarrhoea

  • Blood in the stool

  • Mucus in the stool

  • Constipation

  • Bloating

  • Bad breath

  • Abdominal pain

  • Anaemia

  • Food sensitivities

  • Osteoporosis

However, other conditions not typically recognised, but associated with gastrointestinal health, include;

 

  • Chronic fatigue

  • Depression

  • Autism

  • Arthritis

  • Autoimmune disorders. 

These conditions may result from ‘leaky gut’ and the subsequent exposure to foreign particles which may trigger local and systemic immune and inflammatory issues.
