The GLOW GUT Testing Program
This advanced stool analysis provides in-depth insights into your gut microbiome while evaluating the digestive system and colon. It examines the balance of beneficial, commensal, and pathogenic bacteria, along with their metabolic byproducts, to uncover how your gut health influences your overall well-being. Below is a snapshot of the far-reaching impact of the gut microbiome on your body:
Digestive System
Identifies imbalances in gut flora that may contribute to symptoms like bloating, diarrhea, constipation, or food intolerances
Key Insights
Detects a number of pathogens like Clostridium difficile or Escherichia coli that can cause inflammation and gut damage.
Evaluates enzyme production and fiber digestion, ensuring proper nutrient absorption. · Impact: Optimizing gut flora can improve digestion, reduce inflammation, and support a healthy gut lining.
Impact: Optimizing gut flora can improve digestion, reduce inflammation, and support a healthy gut lining.
Immune System
Assesses the gut's role in regulating immunity, as 70% of the immune system resides in the gut.
Key Insights
Identifies immune-disrupting bacteria, such as Klebsiella or Proteus mirabilis, linked to autoimmune conditions.
Evaluates short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production (e.g., butyrate), which helps regulate inflammation and strengthen the gut barrier.
Impact: Strengthening gut health can reduce susceptibility to infections, allergies, and autoimmune flare-ups.
Nervous System & Mental Health
Links microbiome imbalances to brain function via the gut-brain axis.
Key Insights
Measures neurotransmitter precursors and identifies bacteria that impact serotonin, dopamine, and GABA production.
Highlights the presence of inflammation or neurotoxin-producing bacteria that may contribute to anxiety, depression, or brain fog.
Impact: A balanced microbiome supports cognitive clarity, emotional resilience, and reduced anxiety.
Hormonal System
Evaluates gut bacteria that influence hormone regulation.
Key Insights
Assesses the estrobolome, bacteria responsible for metabolizing estrogen. Imbalances can lead to conditions like estrogen dominance or PMS.
Highlights gut dysbiosis that affects cortisol and thyroid function.
Impact: Balancing gut bacteria can regulate hormone levels, improving energy, mood, and menstrual health.
Cardiovascular System
Examines gut bacteria that influence heart health
Key Insights
Detects species like Lactobacillus plantarum, which support cholesterol metabolism.
Identifies harmful bacteria that produce metabolites like trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), linked to heart disease.
Impact: Optimizing the microbiome reduces cardiovascular risks and improves metabolic health.
Skin Health
Links gut imbalances to skin conditions like rashes, acne, eczema, or rosacea.
Key Insights
Evaluates levels of inflammatory bacteria or yeast (e.g., Candida albicans) that trigger skin flares.
Highlights dysbiosis affecting the gut-skin axis.
Impact: Addressing gut health can lead to clearer, healthier skin.
Metabolism and Weight Management
Highlights gut flora that impact metabolic rate, energy utilization, and cravings.
Key Insights
Identifies bacteria associated with improved insulin sensitivity, such as Akkermansia muciniphila.
Measures dysbiotic species linked to increased fat storage or sugar cravings.
Impact: Restoring microbiome balance supports weight loss and metabolic flexibility.
Detoxification Pathways
Evaluates the gut's role in detoxifying harmful substances.
Key Insights
Identifies bacteria that modulate liver detox enzymes and bind toxins for excretion.
Highlights dysbiosis that increases reabsorption of toxins, contributing to fatigue and chronic illness.
Impact: A healthy gut aids efficient detoxification, improving energy and resilience.
Gut-Oral Microbiome Connection
The gut and oral microbiomes are interconnected through the digestive tract. Imbalances in the gut microbiome can:
Influence bacterial migration between the oral cavity and the gut.
Impact inflammation and immune responses, which can manifest as gum disease or oral infections.
Why is the GLOW GUT program stool analysis unique?

Small Intestinal Glow Health Program
The Glow Gut, trio-smart breath test identifies if you have small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), intestinal methanogenic overgrowth (IMO), or excess hydrogen sulfide. This test involves drinking a glucose solution and then collecting a breath sample periodically over a period of two hours.
Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) is a complex and often misunderstood condition. Patients frequently receive inaccurate information and inadequate treatments, which can complicate their journey to recovery. Even experienced practitioners may feel challenged when addressing SIBO. Glow Health Wellness offers proven methods to help you navigate SIBO, IBS, and other functional digestive disorders with clarity and confidence.
Up to 80% of people with IBS have SIBO
11% of people world-wide have IBS
50% of patients struggle with relapse flares
Small Intestinal Fungal Overgrowth (SIFO) occurs when fungi, typically Candida species, excessively colonize the small intestine. It shares symptoms with Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), such as bloating, gas, diarrhea, or constipation, but can also cause fatigue, brain fog, and food sensitivities due to fungal byproducts. SIFO often evades standard tests, but comprehensive stool analyses can identify it. Addressing SIFO is essential to reduce gut inflammation, improve nutrient absorption, and prevent chronic health issues, as well as to disrupt fungal biofilms that hinder effective treatment.
