Clark Wellness, PLLC - Functional Medicine, Weight Control and IV therapy
Microbiome & Digestion

Heal Your Gut, Transform Your Health

Our Gut Health Program is designed to uncover and address the root causes of digestive issues, not just the symptoms.

We use advanced diagnostic testing, including comprehensive stool analysis and breath testing, to get a clear picture of what’s going on inside your gut. From there, we create a personalized plan that supports microbiome balance, inflammation, and nutrient absorption to promote lasting healing.

Microbiome balance and digestive health

Most Commonly Ordered: Gut Zoomer

Comprehensive DNA microarray analyzing 170+ microbial species, inflammation, and intestinal permeability.

Targeted Care

You may benefit from this test if you experience:

Gut dysfunction doesn't just affect your stomach. Because 70% of your immune system and 90% of your serotonin live in the digestive tract, an imbalanced microbiome can trigger full-body symptoms.

Bloating and abdominal distension
Excessive gas or flatulence
Difficulty losing stubborn weight
Recent or repeated antibiotic use
Uncertainty about choosing the right diet (Paleo, Vegan, Keto)
Diarrhea, constipation, or alternating bowel habits
Digestive discomfort or irregularity
Signs of systemic or gut inflammation
Mood swings, anxiety, and brain fog
Eczema, psoriasis, or chronic skin breakouts
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD: Crohn's or Ulcerative Colitis)
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) or suspected SIBO
Advanced Diagnostics

Why Gut Zoomer ($700) is Our Gold Standard

Our practice uses several advanced GI tests, however, the Gut Zoomer is the most frequently ordered test due to its comprehensive, actionable content. It measures:

  • Complete microbiome diversity & phyla balance (Bacteroidetes vs Firmicutes)
  • Harmful pathogens, parasites, fungi, and Candida overgrowth
  • Intestinal permeability markers (Zonulin, Calprotectin, and SIgA)
  • Short-chain fatty acid production (Butyrate, Acetate, Propionate)
  • Bile acids, enzymatic digestion, and metabolic markers

Functional Medicine Patient Requirement

The Gut Zoomer can be ordered through our FM store; however, you must become a Functional Medicine patient with Angelica Clark to ensure proper clinical interpretation and customized protocol design.

I could not have asked for something better. They are my saving grace. Six months ago, I did not care if I lived or died. I had been to several other doctors with no answers. Angelica gave me my life back.
