Dr Fey is excited to offer GI spotlight functional wellness test by Design for Health, an in-depth stool test targeting vital markers for gastrointestinal health.

The human gastrointestinal (GI) tract contains an ecosystem with more than four trillion microbes, living in a harmonious relationship with their host. These microbes, when in a healthy balanced state, are responsible for performing duties essential to maintain good health, such as supporting normal digestion, hormonal balance, maintaining healthy immune systems, and neurotransmitter function.

This is not a test created or intended for medical diagnosis, but instead has been designed to help healthcare providers find the possible root cause of their patient’s illness and allow providers to supply personalized supplementation, diet and lifestyle recommendations based on the patient’s own unique GI microbiome.

The GI spotlight stool test will help provide insight into the following areas:

  • Quantitative analysis of innate microbiome and opportunistic microbial populations

  • Microbial abundance, diversity, and balance

  • Intestinal permeability and gut barrier function (ex. leaky gut)

  • Digestive function, nutrient absorption, and GI motility

  • Inflammatory status and immune function in the gut

  • Fungal overgrowth

  • Rule out possible histamine imbalances and food intolerance suspicions

If interested please call/ email the office at (607) 729-0591/ cmhahealth@gmail.com for more information or to schedule a consult with Dr Fey to see if this test is the right test for you. Our office hours are Monday-Thursday 10am-6pm EST (we are closed on Fridays) .
