The Gut Check
The Gut Check
Paid in full: $750 (Payment Plans Available and HSA/FSA Payment Accepted)
The gut not only dictates digestive health, but also impacts our immune system, metabolism, hormone balance, brain and mental health. When factors like microbial imbalances, pathogens, chronic stress, and poor diet inflame the delicate gut ecosystem, symptoms can arise all across the body.
If you want to explore the imbalances in your gut but aren't yet ready to commit to working with a practitioner 1:1, this package is for you.

GI MAP or MRT
-
In this 30-minute session, we will review lab results, contextualize your symptoms in relation to your lab results, and walk-through your personal, lab-based protocol.
-
This lab-based protocol includes tailored recommendations for optimizing nutrition, improving sleep quality and recovery, incorporating appropriate exercise, managing internal and external stressors, and utilizing targeted supplementation to restore balance and promote overall well-being.
The goal of this session is to educate and empower you. We explore your results and protocol in extensive detail so that you understand what is happening in your body, why it's happening, and how you can heal.

GI MAP
At Wholistic Renewal, we love using the Gastrointestinal Microbial Assay Plus (GI-MAP) because it provides unparalleled insight into gut health, allowing us to get to the root of your health issues and craft a targeted, personalized protocol for you.
This advanced, at-home stool test is one of the most powerful tools in functional medicine for restoring balance and optimizing gut health. Since the gut is at the center of skin, hormone, immune and mental health, this test is foundational for every healing protocol.
The GI MAP gives a detailed look at your microbiome, detecting harmful bacteria, parasites, viruses, and other disruptions that may be impacting your health. This functional test also measures indicators of digestion, absorption, inflammation, and immune function.
Markers: Opportunistic microbes, commensal keystone bacteria, pathogens, viruses, fungi, H. Pylori, parasites, Beta-Glucuronidase, Occult Blood, Calprotectin, Steatocrit, Elastase, SIgA, and Anti-gliadin IgA.

Mediator Release Test
When it comes to healing, reducing inflammation is essential. The Mediator Release Test (MRT) uncovers hidden inflammation triggers that often go undetected by traditional testing.
Developed by Oxford Biomedical Technologies, this patented test analyzes your immune system's reaction to up to 176 foods and chemicals, providing an invaluable tool to identify inflammation-provoking items.
Unlike IgA or IgG tests, the MRT explores subclinical inflammation, which can cause subtle but chronic symptoms like digestive discomfort, headaches, joint pain, and fatigue, even when no immediate allergic response is present.
By quantifying your body’s inflammatory response with a rating and green/yellow/red score, the MRT provides an accurate picture of which foods your body tolerates best and which are contributing to your symptoms. This allows us to create highly personalized, anti-inflammatory protocols that reduce your inflammation at the root, and accelerate your healing by leaps and bounds.
