The Gut Mapping Pathway

GI-MAP: Comprehensive Gut Microbiome Insight

Understanding the health of your gut microbiome can reveal important clues about digestion, inflammation, immune health, and even skin or hormone concerns. For many individuals, persistent symptoms such as bloating, eczema, acne, hormone imbalances, fatigue, anxiety, or food sensitivities may have underlying contributors within the gut microbiome.

The GI-MAP is an advanced stool test that uses DNA technology to identify bacteria, pathogens, parasites, yeast, and key digestive markers that may be contributing to ongoing symptoms.

For many individuals, underlying gut imbalances can contribute to symptoms that have never been fully explained.

This pathway is designed to provide clear insight into your gut microbiome along with a targeted plan for support.

The GI-MAP is widely used by functional and integrative practitioners to evaluate microbial patterns and digestive markers that may influence overall health.

Why I Use This Test:

There are many gut tests available, but the GI-MAP is one I value for its ability to look at microbial patterns, digestive markers, and immune signals all within one report.

While no single test tells the entire story, the GI-MAP can provide meaningful clues about imbalances within the gut ecosystem.

My role is not simply to hand you a lab report. It is to interpret patterns within the results, connect them with your symptoms and health history, and translate that information into a thoughtful plan for support.

What’s Included:

Your Gut Mapping Pathway includes:

• GI-MAP stool test kit shipped directly to your door
• Simple at-home sample collection with prepaid return shipping
• Comprehensive microbiome laboratory analysis
• 20–30 minute personalized video review explaining your results
• 12-week gut support protocol including diet and supplement recommendations
• Printable protocol guide for easy implementation
• One follow-up consult via zoom (typically scheduled around 3–4 weeks after starting your protocol) to review progress and make any necessary adjustments

What the GI-MAP Evaluates:

The GI-MAP looks at multiple aspects of gut health, including:

• Beneficial bacteria
• Opportunistic bacteria
• Pathogenic bacteria
• Parasites
• Yeast and fungal overgrowth
• H. pylori
• Digestive markers
• Immune markers
• Inflammation markers

This type of testing can help uncover patterns that may contribute to symptoms such as:

• Bloating
• Constipation or irregular digestion
• Skin concerns like eczema or acne
• Food sensitivities
• Fatigue
• Chronic inflammation

Who This Pathway Is Best For:

This option is ideal for individuals who:

• Want objective data about their gut microbiome
• Suspect gut health may be contributing to symptoms
• Prefer a structured plan they can implement independently
• Are looking for a focused starting point before committing to a larger program

How the Process Works:

1. Apply for The Gut Mapping Pathway

   Begin by completing a short application so I can better understand your health, history, symptoms, and goals. This helps determine whether the Gut Mapping Pathway is the right starting point for you.

2. Complete your intake forms

   Once your application is approved, you will receive access to your client portal where you’ll complete intake forms and payment. These give me a better understanding of your health history before ordering your test.

3. Your GI-MAP ships to your door

   I will then order your GI-MAP test kit and have it shipped directly to your home. The kit includes clear instructions and a prepaid return envelope.

4. Collect your Sample at home

   You’ll complete a simple stool sample collection at home. The process is quick, discreet, and typically takes only a few minutes.

5. Mail your sample to the lab

   Place your sample in the pre paid return package and send it directly to the laboratory for analysis.

6. Receive your results and personalized protocol

   Once your results are available, you’ll receive

   • A personalized video interpretation delivered within 14 days of receiving your results

   • A customized 12-week gut support protocol

   • Nutrition and supplement recommendations based on your results

   This process transforms complex lab data into a clear plan for restoring balance in the gut.

What Happens After the 12- Week Protocol?

This is an excellent options for women who are self-motivated and just need testing and a practitioner interpretation who is skilled in pattern recognition to help them put the pieces together. Many women find that the 12-week protocol provides a clear and structured starting point for supporting gut health.

If additional guidance is needed, clients may choose to schedule a follow-up consult or explore the broader Metabolic Muse pathways for more comprehensive support.

A Thoughtful Approach to Gut Health:

This work is deigned to provide meaningful insight into patterns within your gut microbiome and how they may be influencing your symptoms.

Rather than chasing isolated findings or overwhelming you with supplements, my goal is to interpret the results thoughtfully and create a focused plan that supports your body’s ability to restore balance.

This focused pathway is best suited for individuals who are curious, engaged in their health, and open to implementing gradual, sustainable changes.

What this Focused Pathway Is — and What It is Not

This focused pathway is:

• A structured starting point for understanding your gut microbiome

• Practitioner interpretation of complex laboratory data

• A focused 12-week protocol designed to support balance and the body’s innate healing abilities

This focused pathway is not:

• A quick fix

• Diagnostic of medical conditions

• A substitute for medical care from your physician

Investment:

$697 + applicable tax (lab fees included)
