Are you suffering from digestive problems and are you looking for an effective and lasting solution to your problems?
For decades, the industrial revolution has unfortunately affected our diet and many of us now experience more or less serious discomfort during meals or digestion.
To combat digestive problems and maintain health and vitality, the integrative nutrition therapists at Turó Park Clinics propose an analysis of the intestinal microbiota to assess how to improve and balance the microbiota thanks to a treatment based on food powders or changes in nutritional habits and lifestyle.
To find out more and analyse your intestinal microbiota, make an appointment now with our dietician-nutricionist!
What is microbiome analysis?
Gut microbiota analysis is a study that examines the communities of microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, viruses and others) that inhabit the gut. They can also inhabit the skin, mouth, urinary tract and other areas. The intestinal microbiota is of particular interest because of its crucial role in general health and disease diagnosis.
Furthermore, as the composition of the microbiota is unique and specific to each human being, real-time measurement of the patient's microbiota allows for personalised and specific advice based on the patient's own physiology, as well as on knowledge from proven sources.

Who is the microbiome test for?
The gut microbiome test is useful for any adult from the age of 18 who wants to know more about the complex relationships in the gut, and the balance of their own gut microbiota.
More specifically, microbiota testing is indicated for all patients suffering from :
- Irregular transit,
- Irritable bowel syndrome,
- Bloating,
- Excess gas,
- Heartburn,
- Pain,
- Food intolerance,
- Sudden weight gain or loss....
How does the microbiome test work?
The test has two parts:
- A discussion with the nutritionist to better understand your symptoms, their onset, and your medical and family history.
- A clinical examination of the oral and cutaneous flora.
The data collected during the examination is then analysed and the results are communicated by the nutritionist a few days later.
A healthy gut microbiome contributes to your good health.
Our English-speaking nutritionist offers you an innovative test to discover your microbiota and preserve your well-being and health.
What information do you get from a gut microbiome test?
To measure the composition of the microbiome and to assess its health, the exhaled gases released by the lungs are measured, which give us an insight into :
- Malabsorption and/or inflammation of the small intestine,
- The presence of bacteria and viruses,
- Possible damage to the intestinal mucosa.
This type of analysis is gaining relevance in the field of personalized medicine, as it allows tailoring treatments based on the unique characteristics of each person's microbiota.
What to do with the results?
The microbiome test report indicates any imbalance in the gut microbiota (whether it is depleted or enriched) and the possible presence of dysbiosis.
On the basis of this report, our team of nutritionists will offer you personalised advice (dietary rebalancing, hygiene, etc.) to clean up the digestive tract and thus promote the rebalancing of the intestinal flora.
These recommendations are given as a complement to the intake of food powders, which are necessary for an in-depth rebalancing of the intestinal flora. You can order them directly from the recommended manufacturer.
