    What is a Gut Health Package ?

    The Gut Health Checkup Package offers a thorough evaluation of your digestive and overall gut health by examining key markers in both blood and stool samples.

    The blood tests included in this package target several important aspects of gut health. For example, Vitamin B12 levels are assessed because this vitamin is crucial for nerve function and the production of red blood cells, and its deficiency often results from poor absorption in the gut. The package also tests for Helicobacter pylori, a bacteria that frequently causes stomach ulcers. Additionally, liver function tests (ALT and AST) are included, as the liver is integral to digestion and nutrient processing, directly linking its health to gut function. Immunoglobulins (IgE and IgA) are measured to assess immune responses to gut-related infections or allergies, which can impact overall digestive health. The HbA1c test is also part of the package, as it measures blood sugar levels—elevated levels are a risk factor for diabetes, a condition that can lead to gut health complications.

    Stool tests are a critical component, as they can detect hidden blood, indicating gastrointestinal issues such as ulcers or internal bleeding. These tests provide valuable insights into potential digestive tract problems, even if symptoms are not yet present.

    If you live in Bangalore and are looking for a gut health blood test, you can schedule the Gut Health Checkup Package with Home Testing, anywhere in Bangalore in the comfort of your home.

    Gut Health Package Parameters

    Alanine Amino Transferase (ALT/SGPT)

    Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) is an enzyme primarily found in the liver, with smaller amounts in the kidneys and other tissues. ALT helps break down proteins for energy. Elevated ALT levels in blood tests can indicate liver cell damage or inflammation, often linked to liver diseases such as hepatitis, alcohol use, medications, or fatty liver disease. ALT tests are vital for assessing and monitoring liver health.

    Aspartate Amino Transferase (AST / SGOT)

    Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) is an enzyme found in various body tissues, including the liver, heart, muscles, and kidneys. It plays a vital role in transferring amino groups between molecules during amino acid metabolism. Elevated AST levels in blood tests can indicate tissue damage or injury, although it's less specific to the liver than ALT. AST tests are often used alongside ALT tests to assess liver and heart health and help diagnose conditions such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, or cardiac is

    Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c)

    The Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) test measures the average blood sugar level over the past two to three months. It helps in diagnosing and monitoring diabetes by checking how well blood sugar levels are being managed over a longer period.

    • Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c)

    Immunoglobulin E (Total IgE)

    This test measures the amount of immunoglobulin E (IgE), an antibody that is typically produced in response to allergies and certain parasitic infections. High levels of total IgE can suggest an allergic reaction or parasitic infection.

    Stool Occult Blood

    Vitamin B12

    This test measures the levels of Vitamin B12 in your blood. Vitamin B12 is essential for maintaining healthy nerve cells and creating DNA and red blood cells. A deficiency can lead to fatigue, weakness, and other health problems. This test can help diagnose a Vitamin B12 deficiency and guide treatment.

    Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) antibody IgG

    Immunoglobulin IgA

    • Best Time to Get Tested

    • Who Should Get a Gut Health Checkup Package?

    • Cautions Before Taking a Gut Health Checkup Package

    No specific preparation is needed before the Gut Health Package. However, consult your doctor before taking the test to ensure it is appropriate for your situation.

    Why Take the Gut Health Package Checkup?

    The Gut Health Checkup Package is a tool for improving and maintaining digestive and overall health. This package provides a thorough evaluation of key health indicators, including liver function, allergy markers, gastrointestinal bleeding, and nutrient levels. Identifying potential issues early allows for prompt intervention, thereby, preventing minor problems from becoming more serious.

    Your gut contains approximately 10 bacteria, far exceeding the number of human cells in your body. These gut bacteria are essential for various functions: they assist in nutrient absorption, produce vitamin K, aid in the digestion of certain foods, and support the health of blood vessels and nerves in the digestive system. Disruptions in this bacterial balance—due to factors such as antibiotics, stress, ageing, poor diet, or lifestyle changes, can lead to an imbalance known as dysbiosis.

    This package is recommended for individuals experiencing symptoms such as persistent digestive discomfort, unexplained fatigue, bloating, changes in bowel habits, or signs of nutrient deficiencies like anaemia. The Gut Health Checkup Package helps in diagnosing the cause of these symptoms early, so you can manage them effectively and maintain better health.
