Presenter
Join Tom Fabian, PhD, CNTP, on May 14 at 2 PM ET for a live webinar exploring the important role of the microbiome in gut motility and related disorders such as diarrhea and constipation. In this presentation, practitioners will learn how GI‑MAP® and the new StoolOMX™ add‑on provide actionable clinical insights into key microbial drivers of gut motility dysfunction — including microbial imbalances and alterations in short-chain fatty acids and bile acids.
Topics covered in this webinar include:
- Brief overview of gastrointestinal motility
- The bidirectional relationship between the microbiome and gut motility, with a focus on imbalances related to constipation and diarrhea, such as in IBS and related conditions
- How specific microbes and microbial products such as bile acids and short-chain fatty acids – along with other gut health factors -- influence gut motility
- How GI-MAP, along with the new StoolOMX add-on test for microbial metabolites, can provide key clinical insights into gut motility issues
- Functional medicine approaches for addressing imbalances that contribute to altered gut motility
