Test to establish your gut health
Your gut plays a central role in nutrient absorption, immune regulation, and overall wellbeing. When digestive function is compromised, it can affect everything from energy levels and immunity to mood and metabolic balance.
Our Healthy Gut Blood Test evaluates key nutritional and inflammatory markers associated with gastrointestinal health. This panel helps identify nutrient deficiencies, inflammation, and immune responses that may be linked to impaired gut function or underlying digestive conditions.
Who Is This Test For?
This test may be beneficial for:
  • Individuals experiencing bloating, abdominal discomfort, or irregular bowel habits
  • Those with chronic fatigue or unexplained low energy
  • Individuals with suspected nutrient malabsorption
  • Patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) or inflammatory bowel conditions
  • Individuals following restrictive diets (e.g., vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free)
  • Anyone seeking a proactive digestive health assessment
It is also suitable for monitoring recovery from gastrointestinal illness or supporting broader wellness evaluations.
What Does the Test Measure?
Iron
Essential for oxygen transport and energy production. Low levels may indicate poor absorption, chronic blood loss, or dietary deficiency.
Ferritin
Reflects stored iron levels in the body. It is a sensitive marker for iron deficiency and can also rise in response to inflammation.
Folate (Vitamin B9)
Critical for red blood cell production and DNA synthesis. Folate deficiency may result from inadequate intake or impaired absorption in the small intestine.
C-Reactive Protein (CRP)
A marker of systemic inflammation. Elevated levels may indicate inflammatory activity within the gut or elsewhere in the body.
Full Blood Count (FBC)
Provides an overall picture of blood health and can help detect anemia, infection, or chronic inflammatory states.
White Blood Cell Count (WBC)
Assesses immune system activity. Abnormal levels may suggest infection, inflammation, or immune imbalance.
Why Test?
Digestive issues often develop gradually and may present with subtle or non-specific symptoms. Identifying nutrient deficiencies and inflammatory markers early allows for targeted dietary adjustments, supplementation, and medical follow-up when necessary.
Support your gut health from the inside out — because a healthy gut is the foundation of whole-body wellness.
