Cardiovascular ScoreUpdated a year ago
The scores within Cardiovascular health are a reflection of deficiencies or overgrowth of specific bacteria that have shown within the research to be associated with the presented area such as Triglyceride levels. Specific bacteria have shown within the research to assist with triglycerides. These bacteria are measured within the stool analysis and scores are based on abundance.
This is not a direct measurement of triglycerides levels, a serum test is needed to measure directly. Instead, the data presented helps understand if one may be more inclined to higher cardiovascular measurements, such as triglyceride levels, due to a lack of specific bacteria that assists in the breakdown. A poor score may indicate that a change in diet may be needed, or incorporation of probiotics to help boost associated deficient bacteria, or even if lifestyle changes such as increased exercise may be needed.
