Get your gut in check with the GI-MAP from Diagnostic Solutions!


GI-MAP – GI Microbial Assay Plus

The GI-MAP® (Microbial Assay Plus) is a comprehensive stool test that

relies on quantitative polymerase chain reaction technology to detect

parasites, bacteria, H. pylori, fungi, and more by targeting the specific DNA

of the organisms tested.

Optimal Health — It All Starts with the GI‑MAP


Research overwhelmingly indicates that gut health impacts overall

health. The gut microbiome plays a critical role in mediating the

effects of diet and other factors on digestive, immune, metabolic, skin,

brain, and neuroendocrine health.


Results allow practitioners to personalize gut healing protocols that

optimize overall health. Get to the root cause of chronic conditions for

your patients with GI‑MAP.

Why Is This GI-MAP so Impressive?

Unlike other comprehensive stool tests on the market, the GI-MAP can provide practitioners with truly quantitative results. This GI-MAP offers a much more accurate way to detect and quantify clinically relevant organisms than standard PCR, culture, microscopy, or DNA sequencing-based methods. Accurately assessing how much of an organism's DNA is present in a patient's stool sample is essential for helping practitioners determine the clinical significance of pathogenic organisms and dysbiosis patterns.

 

Diagnostics Solutions is the only laboratory in the United States exclusively using qPCR technology for advanced comprehensive stool testing. This technology is used routinely in clinical and academic research because it provides highly-accurate quantification, as well as high levels of sensitivity and specificity. Standard PCR technology doesn't offer the same level of sensitivity, or the ability to express precise numerical results.

The GI-MAP also provides consistently reproducible results. Reproducibility is of crucial importance to the practitioners and patients that rely on the efficacy of the GI-MAP. To achieve it, we perform rigorous quality control and have validated all molecular target quantification assays to meet or exceed FDA standards.

Dealing with Sweaty Pits?
January 26, 2024
Struggling with weight loss is a tale as old as time for many. Despite the diets, the gym memberships, and the sheer willpower, the scales refuse to budge. But what if there was a scientifically backed, medical approach that could change the game? Enter semaglutide, a trending name in the weight loss industry that’s showing promising results. The Challenge of Weight Loss: The journey to shed pounds is often fraught with challenges—yo-yo dieting, cravings, plateaus, and the frustration that follows. It's a path littered with obstacles, where the goalposts seem to move further away with each step. That's where a holistic approach comes into play, not just focusing on the physical aspects, but on a comprehensive strategy that includes medical interventions. Medical Weight Loss Explained: Unlike traditional weight loss methods, medical weight loss is a tailored approach under the supervision of healthcare professionals. It combines diet, physical activity, behavioral therapy, and, when necessary, prescription medications. This method targets the root causes of obesity, offering a personalized and sustainable solution. Spotlight on Semaglutide: Originally developed for Type 2 diabetes, semaglutide has entered the spotlight for its weight loss benefits. It mimics a hormone that targets the brain's appetite control centers, reducing hunger and caloric intake, leading to significant weight loss. The Science Behind Semaglutide for Weight Loss: Clinical trials have painted a promising picture for semaglutide. Participants have reported an average weight loss of 15%, a substantial figure compared to traditional methods. These findings are transforming how we approach obesity and weight management. Considerations and Side Effects: While semaglutide's benefits are compelling, it's crucial to consider its suitability on an individual basis. Common side effects include nausea and digestive discomfort, underscoring the need for a thorough consultation with a healthcare provider before starting treatment. The Future of Weight Loss Treatments: As research progresses, the future looks bright for medical weight loss treatments. Semaglutide paves the way for innovative approaches that could revolutionize obesity treatment and management. Conclusion: The battle with the bulge need not be a solitary fight. With breakthrough treatments like semaglutide, coupled with professional guidance, sustainable weight loss is within reach. It's a message of hope for anyone who has felt defeated by their weight loss journey. If you're considering a new direction in your weight loss journey, consult with your healthcare provider to see if semaglutide could be your ally. Remember, every great success starts with a single step. Could this be yours?
