How is the test performed?
Fortunately, the test is performed in the privacy of your own home. Once your MNMC Naturopath has decided that it is a beneficial test you will be provided you with a test kit. This test kit comes complete with everything you will need to perform the test. Once completed the sample is sent via express post, which will be delivered to the lab for analysis. Once the results are finalised your practitioner will explain the results and provide the treatment necessary to combat the problem and restore gastrointestinal health.
