Pediatric 3-Zone Gut Testing
A complete view of your child’s digestive system.
Pediatric 3-Zone Gut Test
Pediatric 3-Zone Gut Test
The 3-Zone Gut Test gives you a complete picture of what’s happening within the three regions of your gut: upper, mid, and lower.
This comprehensive test includes two at home finger-prick blood samples (or email us for an at-home phlebotomist) and one stool sample.
1. FOOD SENSITIVITY & INFLAMMATORY RESPONSE
Screens 200+ common foods and additives to identify the root-cause of inflammation and distress in your body.
2.MICRONUTRIENT ABSORPTION LEVELS
Measures 100+ nutrient levels— vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and metabolites — to reveal what your body is and isn’t absorbing and the effect on your overall health.
3. GUT MICROBIOME MAPPING
Assesses inflammation, and the balance of good and bad bacteria living in your gut and what needs to be removed for vibrant health.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
Two stool kits, one blood draw kit, complete shipping in both directions, lab analysis from a CLIA-certified facility, and a 60-minute results review where we walk you through your child’s results and what to do next.
HOW IT WORKS
We send the kits to your door. The blood samples are taken at home with a finger-prick, and if you would rather not do it yourself, email us and we will arrange an at-home phlebotomist. You collect the stool samples on your own schedule and ship everything back. Lab analysis takes 2–3 weeks. We review the results with you live and send a phased protocol built for your child.
WHO THIS TEST IS FOR
Children with ongoing digestive symptoms: tummy aches, irregularity, poor appetite, skin flare-ups, low energy, or reactions to certain foods. For parents who want the root cause rather than another round of treating one symptom at a time.
Inside the test
Real food, herbal support, and a daily ritual, working together to reset your gut from the inside out.
Zone 1: Digestion
We measure IgG and IgA reactions to over 200 foods alongside markers for systemic inflammation. This tells us which foods are quietly irritating your child’s immune system, and how much repair the upper gut needs.
Zone 2: Absorption
Targeted bloodwork on B-vitamins, iron, magnesium, zinc, and fat-soluble vitamins shows whether your child’s middle gut is absorbing what they eat, or whether deficiencies are behind low energy, mood, and skin symptoms.
Zone 3: Elimination
Comprehensive stool analysis maps the bacterial, fungal, and parasitic populations in your child’s lower gut, plus markers for digestive enzyme output, leaky gut, and inflammation in the colon itself.
What are the 3 Zones?
Is Gut Testing for You?
Your doctor ran basic labs. Your naturopath gave you probiotics for your microbiome. An online quiz told you to take digestive enzymes. But nothing has worked.
Here’s why: Everyone’s been treating your gut like it’s just about bacteria. But your gut is a three-zone system, and all zones need to be healthy and working well to feel your best.
When you only address one zone and neglect the others you stay stuck in symptoms.
