Gut Health
2000 years ago Hippocrates said "All disease begins in the gut" and "Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food". He wasn't wrong. The majority of all functional nutrition consultations start with assessing gut health, in both children and adults. Functional stool testing acts as the cornerstone of all functional testing in clinic and gives us the data we need to start creating a truly personalised nutrition plan.
