Our digestion tests help uncover the cause of bloating, stomach pain, or food intolerances. By analysing key digestive markers, these tests identify potential issues affecting your gut health. Early detection helps manage symptoms, improve nutrient absorption, and promote better overall wellbeing through informed dietary and lifestyle changes.
This test measures amylase, an enzyme that helps digest carbohydrates, to detect pancreatic inflammation or injury, such as pancreatitis. Blood is drawn, and results are interpreted alongside lipase and imaging studies for accurate diagnosis. Monitoring amylase levels allows healthcare providers to evaluate pancreatic health, guide treatment, and prevent complications such as malabsorption or systemic inflammation. Early detection supports patient care, symptom management, and long-term organ protection.
This test measures calprotectin in stool, a marker of intestinal inflammation. Stool is collected and analysed to help detect conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or infection. Elevated calprotectin levels indicate inflammation, guiding healthcare providers in diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment planning. Patients benefit from early detection, targeted therapy, and management of gut health, reducing risk of complications and improving quality of life.
This test measures diamine oxidase (DAO) activity, an enzyme responsible for breaking down histamine in the body. Blood is drawn and analysed to detect histamine intolerance or related gastrointestinal and allergic symptoms. Low DAO activity may cause headaches, digestive issues, or skin reactions after consuming histamine-rich foods. Results help healthcare providers recommend dietary adjustments, supplements, and monitoring strategies. Patients benefit from identifying triggers, managing symptoms, and improving digestive and overall health.
This test measures faecal elastase, an enzyme produced by the pancreas to aid digestion. Stool is collected and analysed to evaluate pancreatic function. Low elastase levels indicate pancreatic insufficiency, which can cause malabsorption, weight loss, or nutrient deficiencies. Understanding results helps healthcare providers guide enzyme replacement therapy, dietary adjustments, and monitoring. Patients benefit by managing digestive health, improving nutrient absorption, and preventing complications from chronic pancreatic disorders.
This faecal immunochemical test (FIT) detects hidden blood in stool, which may indicate colorectal polyps, cancer, or other gastrointestinal conditions. Stool is collected and analysed for hemoglobin. Early detection allows healthcare providers to recommend further investigation, such as colonoscopy, and initiate treatment. Patients benefit from non-invasive screening, timely detection, and improved long-term gastrointestinal health.
This gastrointestinal panel evaluates multiple markers to assess digestive function, detect infections, inflammation, or malabsorption. Stool or blood samples are collected and analysed to identify conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease, food intolerances, or infections. Results help healthcare providers diagnose, monitor, and manage gastrointestinal health. Patients benefit by improving digestive function, implementing targeted interventions, and preventing complications. Comprehensive testing supports long-term gut health, nutrient absorption, and overall wellness.
The Lipase test measures the level of lipase enzyme, which is produced by the pancreas and helps digest fats. Elevated levels may indicate pancreatitis or pancreatic injury, while low levels can occur in chronic pancreatic disorders. Blood is drawn via venipuncture, usually fasting, and results are interpreted alongside amylase and imaging studies if necessary. Understanding lipase levels allows healthcare providers to diagnose pancreatic conditions, monitor treatment, and prevent complications such as malabsorption or digestive issues. Patients benefit by having early detection and targeted management of pancreatic health.
This stool test detects reducing substances, which may indicate malabsorption or carbohydrate digestion disorders. Stool is collected and analysed to evaluate digestive function. Abnormal results help healthcare providers guide dietary interventions, supplementation, or further testing. Patients benefit by understanding digestive health, managing symptoms proactively, and maintaining long-term wellness. Early detection allows timely care, improved nutrient absorption, and overall health optimization.
