Frequently Asked Questions

What tests are available for digestive issues?
Options include comprehensive stool analysis, SIBO breath testing, food sensitivity panels, organic acids testing, and more. A naturopath or functional medicine practitioner can recommend appropriate testing based on your symptoms.
Is a naturopath or dietitian better for gut issues?
Both can be excellent. Dietitians are ideal for medical conditions requiring specific dietary protocols (celiac, IBD) and are covered by more insurance plans. Naturopaths offer broader testing and supplement protocols. Many patients see both.
How long does gut healing take?
True gut healing typically takes 3-6 months of consistent effort. You may notice symptom improvement within weeks, but fully rebalancing the microbiome and healing the gut lining takes time. Be wary of practitioners promising quick fixes.
