GI-MAP + Organic Acids Test Bundle

Our Most Recommended Comprehensive Testing Package

When you have been dealing with ongoing symptoms but still do not have clear answers, it is often helpful to look beyond basic blood work.

The GI-MAP and Organic Acids Test combination is the testing package we most commonly recommend because it provides a deeper look at two important areas of your health: your gut microbiome and your overall metabolic health.

Instead of only looking at symptoms individually, this package helps identify patterns that may be contributing to digestive issues, fatigue, brain fog, inflammation, hormonal imbalances, and other chronic health concerns.

What Is Included?

GI-MAP Stool Test

The GI-MAP is a comprehensive stool test that uses advanced qPCR technology to assess the gastrointestinal microbiome.

It evaluates for:

• Potentially harmful bacteria, parasites, viruses, and yeast

• H. pylori and associated virulence factors

• Beneficial and opportunistic bacteria

• Signs of digestive insufficiency

• Intestinal inflammation

• Immune activity within the gut

• Markers associated with the integrity of the intestinal lining

This test helps us better understand what may be happening inside the gut and whether microbial imbalances, infections, inflammation, or poor digestion may be contributing to your symptoms.

Organic Acids Test (OAp)

The Organic Acids Profile Test is a comprehensive urine test that provides a broader snapshot of your body’s metabolism.

It evaluates organic acids and provides insight into areas such as:

• Cellular energy production and mitochondrial function

• Nutrient needs and vitamin-related pathways

• Oxidative stress

• Detoxification pathways

• Neurotransmitter-related metabolites

• Oxalate levels

• Yeast and bacterial metabolites

• Additional metabolic imbalances that may not appear on standard blood work

The OAp allows us to better understand how your body is functioning at the cellular level, not just whether your basic labs fall within a standard reference range.

Why Do We Recommend These Tests Together?

The gut affects much more than digestion. Imbalances in the gastrointestinal tract may influence nutrient absorption, inflammation, immune function, and overall well-being.

At the same time, symptoms are not always caused by the gut alone. Fatigue, brain fog, poor recovery, and other chronic concerns may also be connected to cellular energy production, nutrient status, oxidative stress, or metabolic imbalances.

By combining the GI-MAP and OAp, we can evaluate both the gastrointestinal environment and the broader metabolic picture. This often gives us a more complete starting point for building a personalized plan.

Who Is This Package For?

This testing bundle may be helpful for individuals experiencing:

• Bloating, gas, constipation, diarrhea, or irregular bowel movements

• Reflux or ongoing digestive discomfort

• Fatigue or low energy

• Brain fog or difficulty concentrating

• Food sensitivities or difficulty tolerating certain foods

• Unexplained inflammation

• Hormonal imbalances

• Skin concerns

• Poor immune resilience

• Symptoms that have continued despite “normal” routine lab results

• Chronic health concerns without a clear explanation

It may also be appropriate for individuals who want a more comprehensive understanding of their health before beginning a personalized wellness plan.

What Happens After Testing?

You will complete one stool sample and one urine sample from the convenience of your home. Once your results are available, they will be reviewed alongside your symptoms, health history, and other relevant laboratory findings.

These tests are not meant to be interpreted in isolation. The goal is to use the information to identify meaningful patterns and create a more targeted, individualized plan.
