Frequently Asked Questions

This test helps evaluate lactose intolerance, malabsorption, and digestive diseases by analysing the acidity of the stool and the presence of reducing sugars.

  • Low pH of faeces (<5.5): implies malabsorption of carbohydrates or lactose intolerance.
  • Existence of substances that reduce: shows problems with lactose, fructose, and sucrose absorption.

Your doctor could suggest this test if you experience persistent diarrhoea, bloating, or inexplicable weight loss.

Nothing much, just before testing, stay away from dairy and sugar-rich foods for accurate results.
