Gastrointestinal Pathogen Screen #401h

Gastrointestinal pathogens such as bacteria, candida (yeast), and parasites can be a problem for anyone dealing with chronic health issues such as fatigue, loose stools or constipation, joint inflammation, headaches, etc. Often times chronic intestinal pathogens persist for years draining the body of energy reserves, necessary nutrients, and can be a leading problem for ongoing stress leading to poor adrenal hormone cortisol production. In fact, anyone who is assessing themselves for adrenal hormone balance at some point should perform stool testing to rule out chronic infection. The Gastrointestinal Pathogen Screen, aka. #401 profile from BioHealth Laboratory is an excellent test for intestinal pathogens (candida, bacteria), particularly parasitic infections. The parasite detection methods from BioHealth Laboratory are extensive and not only look for parasites through visual inspection of the stool through microscopy, but through specialized staining techniques to identify hidden infections as well. The Gastrointestinal Pathogen Screen (#401) from BioHealth Laboratory also evaluates for Clostridia difficle (C. difficle) Toxins A and B. Clostridia difficle can be a serious infection that predisposes an individual to an inflammatory bowel condition called Pseudomembraneous colitis. C. difficle is contagious and is quite problematic as resistance to antibiotics is high. C. difficle is also known to produce a biotoxin which can interfere with brain chemistry pathways by inhibiting Dopamine. This can create behavior and attention problems often seen in various mental health disorders. A follow-up test for anyone with Clostridia difficle Toxin A and/or B from the BioHealth Laboratory Gastrointestinal Pathogen Screen (#401) would be the Organic Acid Test (OAT) from Great Plains Laboratory. With the OAT there are two clostridia toxins than can be present called 4-cresol and HPHPA which are linked to faulty Dopamine metabolism. The #401 Gastrointestinal Pathogen Screen is an excellent stool analysis for the detection of intestinal pathogens such as parasites and C. difficle.

Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis w/ Parasitology

The Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis w/Parasitology is a complete digestive system assessment for overall bowel health. The profile abbreviated CDSA is useful for a wide variety of issues from bloating, gas, bowel pain, constipation and loose stools, to more problematic issues related to inflammatory bowel disease. The Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis breaks down the digestive assessment into 3 main categories:

Bacterial/Yeast/Parasitic Detection

Digestion of Food

Digestive Inflammation

The first sections of the CDSA look at normal bacterial levels to see if there are any imbalances. Commensal and dysbiotic flora (bacteria) are also analyzed to identify any potential pathogens. If a bacterial pathogen is detected the lab provides what is called a Bacterial Sensitivity screen to determine what remedy (herbal, supplement or medication) is most effective for the eradication of that bacteria. The same thing applies to the detection of candida as well with a Yeast Sensitivity section to determine the most effective remedy to use against candida.

The second section looks at markers for poor digestion of fats, protein, and plant fibers. A general marker for pancreatic output of enzymes to see if this organ is functioning properly is also analyzed.

The final sections of the CDSA look at markers for inflammation to help differentiate between irritable bowel and inflammatory bowel disease potentials. Also, markers for mucosal immune output of secretory IgA, as well as blood, pH, and stool consistency are evaluated too.

Overall, the Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis w/Parasitology is an excellent lab test to fully analyze a variety of markers for digestive function. Many times doing the CDSA along with the Organic Acid Test from Great Plains Laboratory helps to further define imbalances in the digestive system that can contribute to poor health.
