Urinary Indicant Test

This accurate screening tool helps practitioners to assess gastrointestinal toxicity. The results of the test reveal the existence of putrefaction of protein in the colon, which in turn indicates the level of bowl toxicity. If bowel toxicity is present, the practitioner can then assess and treat the cause of the disturbance.

A range of factors can lead to bowel toxicity, including inefficient digestion of dietary protein, overgrowth of unfriendly bacteria, insufficient healthy gut flora, nutritional deficiencies, oral antibiotic use, high-sugar diets, stress, overeating, allergies, infections, autoimmune disease and intestinal damage.

Identifying and addressing any imbalances in the health of the gastrointestinal tract is essential for the success of your treatments. The gut is involved in the proper utilisation of nutrients and over time, any problems in the bowel can cause symptoms and disturbances in other body systems.

Biliary and intestinal obstruction (gall stones and constipation)
Coeliac disease
