Understanding the Gut-Skin Connection with GI-MAP
GI-MAP™ stool testing is a comprehensive diagnostic tool that can provide valuable information about the health of the gut microbiome, which can impact overall health, including skin health.
The gut is responsible for digesting and absorbing nutrients, which are essential for skin health, and also houses trillions of bacteria that can affect the immune system, inflammation levels, and even hormone regulation, all of which can affect skin health.
This two-page handout shows microbial targets on GI-MAP that are associated with multiple clinical skin manifestations. It also provides important information about intestinal permeability and its role in "leaky skin."
