Gut Health Assessment

Your Digestive Symptoms May Be Telling You Something

The online Gut Health Assessment is no longer available. However, ongoing digestive symptoms can still provide important clues about your overall health.

Bloating, constipation, diarrhea, reflux, abdominal discomfort, and changes in bowel habits may be influenced by factors such as digestion, the gut microbiome, food reactions, stress, nutrient status, hormones, and other underlying imbalances.

When to Consider a Gut Health Evaluation

You may benefit from a more personalized evaluation if you frequently experience:

  • Bloating, gas, or uncomfortable fullness
  • Constipation, diarrhea, or alternating between the two
  • Reflux, indigestion, or frequent burping
  • Abdominal discomfort or cramping
  • Food reactions or difficulty tolerating certain foods
  • Undigested food or mucus in your stool
  • Fatigue, brain fog, or skin concerns alongside digestive symptoms
  • Digestive symptoms that worsen during times of stress

A Personalized Approach to Gut Health

Instead of relying on a general online score, Dr. Melanie looks at your complete health history, symptom patterns, diet, lifestyle, medications, supplements, and previous lab results.

When appropriate, your individualized plan may include:

  • Dietary and lifestyle recommendations
  • Nutritional or micronutrient evaluation
  • Comprehensive stool testing
  • Food sensitivity or allergy-related assessment
  • Targeted supplementation
  • Support for constipation, bloating, reflux, or other digestive concerns

Testing and recommendations are selected based on your specific symptoms and health history—not a one-size-fits-all protocol.
