Parasite Test

Parasites & Worms can be found in uncooked food, lakes, ponds, drinking water, etc. and when they enter a human host they can cause illness and disease. They range in sizes from tiny single-celled organisms to worms, which can be seen. According to the US Food Safety and Inspection Service, parasites are more and more frequently being identified as causes of food borne illness in the United States. They have become major causes of food and water based disease.

Parasites are organisms that find food and a place to live from other living organisms known as hosts. Parasites can be start in an animal and move to humans. They can also move from one human to another and from humans to animals. Parasites and/or worms live and reproduce in the tissues and organs of their host.

Parasites and worms are many different sizes. They can be tiny microscopic organisms like a protozoa or a much larger one like a round or tape worm.

Our test for parasites includes a test for intestinal worms: Diemtamoeba fragilis, Blastocystis homins, Giardia, Shigella, Cryptosporidium, Toxoplasma, Trichinella spiralis, Taenia solium (pork tapeworm), Ameba, & Roundworm.

Part of the Complete GI test kit is the Home Test for Parasites. We make testing easy and convenient.

We have seen many stomach & intestinal conditions improve drastically after a parasite is eliminated with a proper protocol. We do not suggest general parasite cleanses. We suggest our parasite test kits to know which type(s) you have. Then our practitioner will help you eliminate them with a safe , natural & effective protocol.

Test for Candida / Yeast Test

Symptoms of Yeast or Candida Overgrowth can be gas, bloating, acid reflux, white coating on tongue, vaginal yeast, jock itch, itchy red skin, hair loss, weight loss or gain, depression, foggy brain, constant fatigue, painful joints, yellow or unhealthy looking nails, constant sinus issues and a feeling of being physically “heavy”.

Candida Test: Candida is a yeast-like fungal organism. It is normal to have small amounts of it in the intestinal tract. If a person has healthy intestinal heath then an overgrowth of yeast usually does not occur. But when there is an increase of bacteria and other organisms then and overgrowth of yeast or candida occurs which is called candidiasis. The host usually starts to suffer with intestinal yeast and a reoccurring yeast infection any part of the body.

A compromised immune system can cause candida yeast overgrowth: Things like fast food, birth control pills, a diet consisting of high acidic foods, stress, hormone imbalances, overuse of antibiotics & steroids, environmental toxins and chronic illness can cause candida yeast overgrowth or candidiasis. The harmful fungus that starts to grow multiplies rapidly in the intestines and if not eliminated can enter the entire body causing havoc. This is called “Systemic Candidiasis”.

Our Complete GI Test includes a test for yeast. It will tell you if your symptoms may be caused by intestinal mold, yeast overgrowth, or Candida and how much there is. If you test positive our practitioner will send you her diet and protocol suggestions along with your test results to eliminate it.

Test For Harmful Bacteria

Sometimes as a person’s intestinal health weakens which allows for harmful bacteria to grow. These bacteria can cause various symptoms of irritable bowel or upset stomach. Two of these bacteria are helicobacter pylori or C. Difficle. These bacteria do not go away on their own, they need to be discovered and then eliminated. Our test will tell you if you are suffering from them and if you are we will help you eliminate them and feel better.

I sought Alane's help for gas, bloating and weight gain. No one could find what was wrong with my stomach and why I was gaining so much weight. I did her gastro-intestinal panel and I was so surprised to find several harmful bacteria, a parasite and even E-Coli in me! She found two food allergies and discovered that I am gluten intolerant.

My symptoms are getting better, thank you!
