Diagnostic tests are valuable tools which can assist in identifying the root cause of chronic conditions. This can help in determining the optimal interventions to assist with disabling conditions or in the quest for achieving lasting health.
Great Smokies Diagnostic Laboratory has helped pioneer the field of laboratory functional testing. Functional testing assesses the dynamic inter-relationship of physiological systems, thereby creating a more complete picture of one's health, unlike traditional allopathic testing, which is more concerned about the pathology of disease.
Our selection of tests are focused on the Gastrointestinal functions of the body:
Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis 2.0
can give you more insight into your digestive function and gut microbial ecology. The test offers a noninvasive differential diagnosis between Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Crohn's Disease and
Ulcerative Colitis) and
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), expanded bacteria, yeast and parasite detection, a reliable assessment of exocrine pancreatic function, and a noninvasive risk assessment for colorectal cancer. If bacteria, yeast or parasites are detected, they are grown out to establish which natural products will inhibit their growth.
Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis (CDSA)
Evaluates digestion and absorption, bacterial balance and metabolism, yeast and immune status. For patients with irritable bowel syndrome, indigestion, malabsorption, and other GI-related problems, separate panels are also available.
Comprehensive Parasitology Profile
Evaluates stool for presence of parasites and levels of beneficial flora, imbalanced flora, pathogenic bacteria, and yeast. For patients with abdominal pain, chronic diarrhea, and other GI-related symptoms.
Intestinal Permeability Assessment
Analyzes urine for the clearance of two non-metabolized sugars, lactulose and mannitol. Identifies "leaky gut" and malabsorption.
Lactose Intolerance Breath Test
A simple, non-invasive test, detects lactose intolerance, a condition affecting more than 50 million Americans. Proper detection enables effective treatment of lactose maldigestion and malabsorption to help alleviate chronic symptoms of bloating, gas, diarrhea, and abdominal pain.
Bacterial Overgrowth of the Small Intestine Breath Test
A simple, non-invasive test that detects bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine, a common condition that often underlies chronic symptoms of maldigestion and malabsorption, including bloating, gas, diarrhea, irregularity, and abdominal pain and associated with leaky gut syndrome.
