With a microbiome test<\/b> these days, it is easy to map out what your ecosystem looks like.<\/p>\n

With a pathogen test <\/b>, we have been measuring which “pathogens” live in your body for years. After 4 years of intensive cooperation with MGlab & Advies, we can finally offer you a microbiome test and a pathogen test.<\/p>\n

Also joining our team is Orthomolecular therapist, kPNI therapist and former top athlete Annette ter Heijden!<\/p>\n

PLEASE NOTE: NO TEST IS REQUIRED TO ORDER FMT!<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text]

Microbiome. Test your inner world! <\/b><\/h1>\n

We now know that the microbiome is your own ecosystem, which is responsible for your climate.<\/p>\n

You are the host, the host of this organism. If you take good care of them, all these bacteria will take good care of you in turn! <\/b><\/p>\n

This organism, as far as we know, is a network of 100 trillion bacteria. There are as many as 10,000 species. Of which everyone is supposed to have about 600. Of those, 30 species are essential!<\/p>\n

Your microbiome is a network of links, communicating with each other and even with your brain. (I’m hungry. I’m full, or I need to go to the bathroom, butterflies in your stomach and so on!)<\/p>\n

Each link has a task, and nature is so clever that there is a group of bacteria available for each task. If you miss one species, due to prolonged or frequent antibiotic use, for example, that need not be a bad thing. But if at some point you do miss all the species of that one link, then that task is no longer performed!<\/p>\n

If a link fails, you can compare it to a wheel in a Swiss watch that stops working. Your clock still works but suddenly this function doesn’t, then suddenly the next function doesn’t, etc. <\/strong><\/p>\n

And that’s not the only problem. As species have disappeared, other bacteria, good or bad, have room to (over)grow. Your gut flora, your ecosystem has become out of balance….<\/p>\n

Overgrowth can be compared to an animal in an ecosystem suddenly running out of enemies.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Click here for a microbiome test<\/i><\/b><\/a><\/h2>\n

You get exactly the same microbiome report as our donors. So you can see which of the donors, you are most likely to succeed with.<\/p>\n

Bacterial species that you miss\/got rid of, you want as much as possible from the donor. Bacterial species that have overgrown on you, you want the least from the donor.<\/p>\n

Note: People only know 15 to 20% of the microbiome. <\/strong><\/p>\n

The process from submission to the final report can take up to a month.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_row content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/2″]

Pathogens: Test the pathogens in your body. <\/b><\/h2>\n

Unfortunately, you cannot escape contracting pathogens. A parasite, for example, is very common and highly contagious. If someone has one, and hasn’t washed their hands, and then makes a nice sandwich for you….<\/p>\n

There are, of course, many types of pathogens.<\/p>\n

Click here for pathogen testing <\/i><\/b><\/a><\/h2>\n

You will receive an overview of MGlab & advice with a clear explanation and with a natural therapy or tips on the pathogens found.<\/p>\n

Most tests are performed using the PCR technique.<\/p>\n

Annette ter Heijden, <\/b><\/h1>\n

When it comes to nutrition, pathogens (disease-causing agents) and the microbiome, you’ve come to the right place with Annette. Our lab’s first helpline!<\/p>\n

A true expert on “nutrition for the gut” and, moreover, has been an elite athlete herself.<\/p>\n

Request an online intro interview with Annette! <\/b><\/p>\n

annette@fysikosvoeding.nl <\/a><\/b><\/p>\n

Through a questionnaire and a conversation, Annette can give specific advice on what you test best for and you can possibly discuss a treatment plan with her.<\/b><\/p>\n

Annette has over 20 years of experience in the field of “nutrition for the gut” and gives lectures and workshops. In the personal counseling she helps with thinking, reflecting and provides you with tips to make nutrition feasible and effective in your own situation. The execution, of course, is up to you!<\/p>\n

Annette is very familiar with pathogen testing and familiar with the developments of a new phenomenon, the microbiome report.<\/p>\n

She has joined forces with fellow kPNI Therapist Jolanda Dorenbos. Together they founded darmexpert.nl and teach therapists, dieticians and doctors.<\/p>\n

Jolanda has 25 years of experience and is author of the book “Primal Cooking.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_row content_placement=”bottom”][vc_column width=”1\/12″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”5\/6″]

We came to Marco after trying a wide range of approaches to support our 10-year-old son, who has autism, PANS\/PANDAS, dysautonomia, and recurrent brain infections, which lead to emotional dysregulation and other symptoms. Although some treatments had helped, his progress had stalled. Working with Marco was a turning point for us. He was incredibly responsive,\u2026 Read more »<\/a><\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n
