Icxela Internal Fitness Testing
Why test your gut?
Because it affects everything you do.
When your gut health is out of balance, the effect is more than just a stomach ache - it changes how you feel, how you sleep, how you manage stress and chronic health conditions, how much energy you have, and even the types of food you crave.
The Ixcela Internal Fitness at-home finger prick blood test identifies levels of 11 key markers in your gut called gut metabolites. This will provide critical insight into how your lifestyle choices and habits are affecting 5 areas of internal health.
-
Gastrointestinal Fitness
This reflects the gut microbiome’s ability to break down food through digestive processes, support the health of the intestinal wall, and maintain a diverse population of beneficial microorganisms.
-
Immuno Fitness
This is the body’s ability to fight off illness and infection. The gut supports the immune system by maintaining immune cells (gut-associated lymphoid tissue) that line the gastrointestinal tract.
-
Emotional Balance
This reflects overall well-being and how well the body manages stress. The gut microbiome plays a role in mood, behavior, and how well someone responds to stressful conditions.
-
Cognitive Acuity
This is the ability to think clearly and maintain focus. The gut microbiome helps to regulate various hormones, neurotransmitters, and signaling molecules that affect and support cognitive function.
-
Energetic Efficiency
This is the body’s ability to break down and convert food into energy to support exercise, activities of daily living, and physical performance. The gut microbiome plays a role in breaking down and synthesizing nutrients.
