Comment; The gut is a source of interaction with our environment, less than our respiratory tissues in terms of volume, but more in terms of duration of contact with potential problems. The GI Map uses DNA probes to detect microbes that are very difficult to find with traditional culture technique, a cutting-edge approach. Treatment with appropriate dietary modifications, use of specific supplements to help heal the gut prior to correct probiotics to restore normal flora is a logical, sensible approach. Heal/correct the problem, then re-seed with the beneficial microbes we need for proper digestion.
