Intestinal Permeability Testing

Commonly referred to as "leaky gut", Intestinal permeability can be measured using the lactulose/mannitol recovery test.

The test involves taking a drink that contains two water-soluble sugars that do not get metabolised by humans. If absorbed into the bloodstream via the gut, they are excreted into the urine, which is collected and tested.

This is a simple urine test that also gives an insight into malabsorption issues.

There are quite a number of functional testing options available for gut health.  It is highly recommended that you get in touch to discuss if this is the right test for you.
