Description
Individuals with inflammatory bowel diseases, such as Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis, or those with chronic gut issues might benefit from testing. It’s also useful for those interested in understanding their gut microbiome health.
Healthy levels support gut health, reduce inflammation, and may protect against certain gut disorders. They contribute to a balanced gut microbiome, crucial for overall health.
Consuming a high-fiber diet with prebiotics, reducing stress, and avoiding unnecessary antibiotics can help increase its levels. A diverse diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains supports its growth.
Low levels can indicate an imbalance in the gut microbiome and are often associated with inflammatory bowel diseases and poor gut health.

The home test was straightforward with easy to follow instructions. The test result was detailed and clear in its presentation. Also had the opportunity to ask questions about the test result.

We looked at a lot of companies offering the same services but made the decision to go forward with get tested because the labs are based here in the UK. The process has been very straight forward.

There are other providers out there, I have tried 3. Gettested was the fastest and the customer service was the best. I even received my test on the day of purchase delivered by a motorbike courier.

I found them to be professional and not too long a wait for results. Helpful with any after questions. Will be using them again if need be. I highly recommend them.
