Fructose and sorbitol intolerance
ABOUT THE TEST
The test consists of administering a solution of fructose and sorbitol orally and collecting the expired air at different times. (each 30 minutes), to determine the amount of hydrogen and/or methane exhaled through the breath. The total duration of the test is 3 hours and a half (210 minutes).
Under normal conditions, fructose and sorbitol are absorbed in the small intestine.. If there is insufficient absorption of any of these sugars due to a deficiency in their intestinal transporters, These reach the large intestine where they are fermented by resident bacteria., producing gases (hydrogen and/or methane) which are partially absorbed by the blood and expelled through the breath. Thus, according to the results obtained of hydrogen and/or methane exhaled for each intake, we can detect a possible intolerance to fructose and/or sorbitol.
To interpret the results you should go to a specialist who knows your clinical situation., This being essential in the event that any of the results are positive.
Impaired glucose tolerance
ABOUT THE TEST
The test consists of administering a glucose solution orally and collecting the exhaled air at different times. (each 30 minutes), to determine the amount of hydrogen and/or methane exhaled through the breath. The total duration of the test is 3 hours and a half (210 minutes).
Under normal conditions, glucose is absorbed in the small intestine.. If there is insufficient absorption of glucose due to a deficiency in its intestinal transporter, This reaches the large intestine where it is fermented by resident bacteria., producing gases (hydrogen and/or methane) which are partially absorbed by the blood and expelled through the breath. Thus, according to results obtained from expired hydrogen and/or methane for each intake, we can detect a possible glucose intolerance.
To interpret the results you should go to a specialist who knows your clinical situation., This being essential in the event that any of the results are positive.
Lactose intolerance
ABOUT THE TEST
The test consists of administering a lactose solution orally and collecting the exhaled air at different times. (each 30 minutes), to determine the amount of hydrogen and/or methane exhaled through the breath. The total duration of the test is 3 hours and a half (210 minutes).
Under normal conditions, lactose is absorbed in the small intestine.. If there is insufficient absorption of lactose due to an enzyme deficiency, This reaches the large intestine where it is fermented by resident bacteria., producing gases (hydrogen and/or methane) which are partially absorbed by the blood and expelled through the breath. Thus, according to the results obtained of hydrogen and/or methane exhaled for each intake, we can detect a possible lactose intolerance.
To interpret the results you should go to a specialist who knows your clinical situation., This being essential in the event that any of the results are positive.

Cardiovascular Profile
heart disease (CVD) It is the leading cause of death and hospitalization in the Spanish population. Cardiovascular risk is defined as the probability of suffering a cardiovascular event in the next 10 years. This probability is determined by a number of risk factors.. So, the greater the number of risk factors, increased probability of developing a cardiovascular event.
Risk factors are classified into two types:-
modifiable factors: tobacco, alcohol, sedentary lifestyle, bad nutrition, high cholesterol, arterial hypertension, abdominal obesity, diabetes mellitus, stress, etc.
-
Non-modifiable factors: age, sex, family background, and predisposing genetic factors.
Most cases of CVD are closely related to lifestyle habits and modifiable biochemical factors.
Vegan profile
Veganism constitutes, more and more often, a nutritional option in western countries. Vegan diets are generally rich in many beneficial health nutrients such as dietary fiber, magnesium, potassium, vitamins C and E, folic acid, carotenoids, polyphenols and other phytochemicals.
CHOOSING A VEGAN DIET IS NOT JUST A VIABLE DIETARY OPTION, BUT IT CAN ALSO OFFER HEALTH BENEFITS
Nevertheless, as in any other nutritional option that excludes large food groups, strict adherence to a vegan diet has to be carefully controlled and, in some cases, supervised by a specialist, thus preventing the deficit of certain nutrients that are located mainly or exclusively in foods of animal origin.
vegetarian profile
Vegetarianism is, more and more often, a nutritional option in western countries. Vegetarian diets are generally rich in many health-promoting nutrients such as dietary fiber, magnesium, potassium, vitamins C and E, folic acid, carotenoids, polyphenols and other phytochemicals.
CHOOSING A VEGETARIAN DIET IS NOT ONLY A VIABLE DIETARY OPTION, BUT IT CAN ALSO OFFER HEALTH BENEFITS
However, as in any other nutritional option that excludes large food groups, strict adherence to a vegetarian diet has to be carefully controlled and, in some cases, supervised by a specialist, thus preventing the deficit of certain nutrients that are located mainly or exclusively in foods of animal origin.
Bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) + IMO
Detection of bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine (SIBO) and intestinal methanogenic overgrowth (IMO).
DESCRIPTION:
The EXPIRED HYDROGEN AND METHANE TEST is a functional test to evaluate bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine. (SIBO) and methanogenic intestinal overgrowth (IMO), O well, certain food intolerances to carbohydrates.
For the detection of SIBO and/or IMO, lactitol or lactulose is administered, which, under normal conditions, fermented in the large intestine by bacteria and archaea (methanógenos), generating hydrogen and methane. These gases partially diffuse into the blood and are eliminated through the breath.. Nevertheless, based on the values obtained for hydrogen and methane exhaled at different times and the evolution of the data, This test allows you to detect SIBO and/or IMO.
