👉🏼 Darmcheck / chair analysis
Depending on the laboratory, he has a different name, e.g. basic profile intestine, health check intestine, intestinal health status, etc.
🤔 When does this test make sense?
Basically in the case of all digestive complaints, irritable bowel, constipation, diarrhea, stomach complaints, food intolerances, allergies, bloated belly, headache, migraine, autoimmune diseases, chronic diseases - because often one of the main causes is in the intestine!
The following examinations should be included:
• Florastatus (detection of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria)
• Mycological examination (proof of yeast)
• Digestion residues (fat, nitrogen, sugar, water)
• Color, consistency, pH value
• Pancreas elastase (digestive performance of the pancreas)
• bile acids
• Alpha 1 antitrypsin (intestinal mucosa)
• Calprotectin (intestinal mucosa)
• Siga (mucosal tuning system + permeability)
Individual additional examinations are offered depending on the symptoms, including the zonulin value (leaky good), histamine detection in the stool, special bacteria such as Akkermansia + F.Prausnitzii (obesity), parasites, worms, among others To interpret findings later and to select the appropriate therapies.
ℹ️ If you want, as a patient, you can also order and carry out tests on the Internet. Some of these laboratories also offer telephone consultations.
👉🏼 Microbiom examination
For some years now, microbiom examinations have been offered that differentiate even further, determine the individual enterotype (metabolism type) and take a closer look at the intestinal flora with regard to numerical settlement, diversity and relationship to one another. This test only makes sense when the intestinal check has already been made and questions are still open or to differentiate even further or if the therapies made have so far brought little success.
