Better Gut Health Means Better Overall Health
We're not a biotech company, we let Thorne (our stool testing platform) take care of that. We will guide you on your journey for better health by learning more about your gut microbiome. Learning about your gut health informs us to the best way to improve your food choices, supplements, and fitness programming for improved health and fitness.
Gut health impacts digestive health, the immune system, weight loss, brain health, emotional balance, and energetic efficiency. Testing your gut provides critical insight into how your lifestyle choices and habits are affecting your internal health. I offer a 20 minute counseling session to go over the results, as well as personalized nutrition and lifestyle recommendations. Thorne’s gut microbiome test gives you a detailed analysis and a personalized plan that targets your GI discomfort and optimizes wellness. The test combines cutting-edge sequencing with extensive health
intelligence data, using a patent-pending microbiome wipe to make meaningful changes. Learn more about Thorne's at-home stool test at Gut Health Test.*
Why test your gut microbiome?
When your gut health is out of balance, the effect is more than just a stomach ache; it changes how you feel, how you sleep, how you recover, how you respond to stress, how much energy you have, and even the frequency and types of foods you crave. The Gut Health Test takes a deep dive into your gut health and provides personalized recommendations for lifestyle, diet, and nutritional supplementation based on your unique gut bacteria. Using a stool sample, the test identifies and quantifies bacteria, viruses, fungi, yeast, archaea, and parasites providing an unparalleled analysis of the composition of your microbiome.

Anyone who experiences constipation or diarrhea
People who have excessive gas, bloating, abdominal pain, nausea or frequent heartburn
If you have IBS or IBD (or a family history of it)

What are 4 week coaching plans?
These programs are for people that want a health coach to help navigate you through a better lifestyle by offering you digestable sessions of information that will aid you toward better health. Although the coaching is not mandatory in order to perform the test it is recommended for people that are not gut microbiome experts. At the end of the 4 week coaching plan you can be retested to see your progress. You may continue the coaching if you would like to.
Do nutrition plans come with it?
Hundreds of recipes with foods that you are advised to eat are offered as well as any supplements that will aid in repairing your gut microbiome balance. If you want to lose weight it is recommended that you use the recipes but to also track the calorie count. Your calories and macronutrients will be given to you as well when you opt for the 4 week coaching plan.
