Bowel Screen Check
$49 AUD
Australia has one of the highest rates of bowel cancer in the world - 1 in 13 Australians will develop the disease in their lifetime. When identified early, 90% of bowel cancer cases can be successfully treated.
Around 30% people who develop bowel cancer have either a hereditary contribution, family history or a combination of both. The risk of developing bowel cancer rises sharply from age 50, but the number of Australians under age 50 diagnosed with bowel cancer has been increasingly steadily.
What we test
Bowel Screen
The test detects traces of blood that may be present in your stool using a faecal immunochemical test. These traces of blood may be released into the stool as a result of the presence of colorectal diseases. Conditions such as haemorrhoids and fissures may also cause blood to be released in to the stool.
This stool test includes x2 faecal occult blood tests:

Gut Health Check
71 tests included
$449 AUD
There are medical explanations and labels for many gut problems, but the big exception is Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Since many gut disorders have similar symptoms to IBS, ruling out a more serious underlying gut disease is an important first step.
Parasite PCR Check
13 tests included
$120 AUD
Some gut problems can be a consequence of an undetected gut infection. A significant number of IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) cases could actually be due to undiagnosed gut pathogens such as Blastocystis hominis and Dientamoeba fragilis.

32 tests included
$229 AUD
As well as analysing your beneficial and pathogenic bacteria, our comprehensive microbiome test also includes testing for parasites and yeast overgrowth, and also provides an assessment of your digestive markers. This holistic picture provides actionable insights to help you improve your gut health.
