Comprehensive Stool Testing in Toronto

discover how GI-360 & GI-MAP can provide real solutions for gut health

The Comprehensive Stool Analysis can help assess digestive tract disorders like gas, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, indigestion, IBS, and malabsorption. The testing helps your Naturopath objectively assess the status of your individualized bacterial ecosystem, identify any opportunistic infections present, and determine the efficacy of your digestive organs.

This test is useful for:

​

  • Gastrointestinal Symptoms

  • Autoimmune Disease

  • Joint Pain

  • IBD/IBS

  • Inflammation

  • Food Sensitivities

  • Nutritional Deficiencies

  • Skin Conditions (Atopic Dermatitis)

Quick Comparison: GI MAP vs. GI 360

​

GI-MAP

  • Uses qPCR DNA technology to precisely measure gut microbes.

  • Screens for pathogenic bacteria, parasites, viruses, and yeast.

  • Evaluates digestive function markers (enzymes, inflammation, immune response).

  • Great for identifying specific infections or imbalances linked to symptoms.

​

GI-360

  • Uses next-generation sequencing (NGS) for a broader, ecosystem-wide view of the microbiome.

  • Analyzes diversity and balance of gut flora, not just pathogens.

  • Provides insight into overall gut ecology and resilience.

  • Ideal for understanding chronic issues, long-standing dysbiosis, and complex cases.​​

The stool testing markers include:

  • Gut microbiome balance – healthy bacteria vs. harmful pathogens

  • Yeast and parasites – common hidden drivers of bloating and irregular stools

  • Digestive function markers – how well you’re breaking down and absorbing food

  • Inflammation levels – uncovering irritation that may be causing pain or discomfort

  • Immune response – how your gut lining and defenses are working​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Who benefits most from GI MAP or GI 360 testing?

  • These tests are especially valuable if you’ve experienced:

  • Persistent bloating, gas, or irregular stools

  • Ongoing heartburn or reflux

  • Abdominal pain or cramping

  • A history of antibiotic use or frequent infections

  • Skin issues, fatigue, or mood changes linked to digestion​
