Gum tragacanth is one of the most widely used natural emulsifiers and thickeners available to the food, drug, and allied industries. The high viscosity imparted to water by the gum makes it useful for preparing aqueous suspensions of insoluble substances. Gum tragacanth has the food additive E number E413. Gum tragacanth is the dried gummy exudation of several species of Astragalus (family Leguminosae).

The Gut Microbiome Index (GMI) is an overall score for gut microbiome health. A score above 30 is considered excellent. It is calculated by assessing four key indicators of your gut microbiome's health and comparing them to those of a typical healthy gut microbiome. The four key indicators include Alpha Diversity (species richness), Beta Diversity (composition), Pathogen Occurrence (population of pathogens) and Resistome Occurrence (population of antibiotic resistance genes).

Genes associated with fluoroquinolone resistance.

The GI-MAP includes results for detection of H. pylori antibiotic resistance genes. If an antibiotic resistance gene is present, then that class of antibiotics is designated POSITIVE for antibiotic resistance. A positive result for the presence of resistance genes for a given antibiotic indicates that the antibiotic is not an ideal choice for an antibiotic protocol. Since microbes can rapidly share DNA under stress, the presence of antibiotic resistance is reason enough to avoid that drug class.

The H. pylori (Helicobacter pylori) breath test is a simple and safe test used to detect an active H. pylori infection.

What is H. pylori?

Helicobacter pylori (or H. pylori) is a bacteria that can infect the stomach or duodenum (first part of the small intestine). If left untreated, H. pylori bacteria can cause gastritis (an inflammation or irritation of the stomach lining) and duodenal or gastric ulcers. In addition, infection with H. pylori increases the risk of other diseases and is also a risk factor for gastric cancer.

Accurate detection of H. pylori is the first step toward curing stomach and intestinal ulcers, and preventing the development of more serious gastrointestinal problems.

H. Pylori, IgG Abs is used to diagnose a Helicobacter Pylori infection. Helicobacter Pylori is a bacteria which is most primarily found in the gut.
