Functional Testing
ORDER YOUR OWN WITHOUT A CONSULT
We want you to have access to the testing you need to confidently understand your body and manage your health.
Therefore, you can now order your own testing directly from the lab through us, without having to pay for a consultation or justify why you want the test.
Once ready, your results will be sent to you in a detailed report. This allows you to advocate for yourself, explore your concerns and monitor your own health. We’re truly putting your healthcare and health data back into your own hands.
How It Works
- Complete the order of your test at checkout and enter all personal details accurately
- Your test kit and all instructions will be posted directly to you in the mail. We recommend reading these instructions at least 2 weeks prior to when you do the test, as there may be a particular day of your cycle that you have to time it for, or particular foods/ supplements/ medications that you need to avoid up to 1 week prior to the test.
- Complete the test as per the easy instructions and mail your test sample back to the laboratory asap (paid return label supplied).
- Once results are ready, we email them to you!
Where Are The Tests Available?
At the moment these tests are available to order to postal addresses in Australia, USA, Canada and New Zealand. Due to US laws, the lab cannot send test kits to New York and New Jersey. For Canadian orders there is a drop ship fee added by the lab that is calculated after the order has been placed that will be in addition to the test cost. This is outside of our control and is determined by your postal address.

Advanced Gut Test
Comprehensive Stool Analysis with Parasitology (CSA+P)
The CSA is the most comprehensive stool assessment available for the assessment of digestive, absorption, metabolic, inflammation and tumour ulcer markers. This CSA stool test is recommended for individuals with gut related symptoms such as IBS, indigestion, dysbiosis, constipation, and diarrhoea.
What it tests:
- Faecal characteristics - stool colour, formation, and evidence of mucous or blood
- Digestive Markers - the presence of food remnants may indicate poor digestion
- Absorption Markers
- Metabolic Markers
- Inflammation Markers
- Tumour/ Ulcer Markers
- Beneficial Bacteria - essential for gut health as they help to inhibit gut pathogens and carcinogens, control pH, reduce cholesterol and synthesise vitamins
- Pathogenic Bacteria - those that have the potential to cause disease in the gut.
- Opportunistic Bacteria - in excessive amounts they can have adverse effects on the body
- Yeasts - such as candida or other overgrowth
- OPTIONAL ADD-ON: Parasites and worms - A significant number of IBS cases could be due to undiagnosed gut parasites
