Gut Health Score - TriglyceridesUpdated a year ago

The scores within Cardiovascular health are a reflection of deficiencies or overgrowth of specific bacteria that affect cardiovascular measures such as Triglyceride levels. Specific bacteria have been shown within the research to assist with triglycerides. These bacteria are measured within the stool analysis, and scores are based on abundance.

The score is not a direct measure of your triglyceride levels; a serum test is needed to provide measurement.  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 and/or incorporation of strain specific probiotics to help boost associated deficient bacteria if high serum triglycerides are a concern.
