Benefits of understanding & treating symptoms
We completed a comprehensive test on our pup about six months ago and it showed he had leaky gut. We have been working with our vet and are happy to say he is now in the normal range! I am very grateful to have access to these home tests so I can be proactive about my dog’s health! Customer service has been phenomenal with both tests.
Was user friendly...gave results that were easy to interpret.
This was such a cool tool to learn about my dogs health. It contained everything i needed to make poop collection easy and clean. The instructions were very clear and easy to follow. I’m very excited to see the results!
The instructions and set up for this test were SO simple and easy to follow. My dog has been struggling with dry skin ever since we moved, and I can’t wait to see if there are any underlying gut health issues.
I used this test because my Goldendoodle, Winston kept licking his paws and chewing at his legs. We found out he had high Zonulin and borderline Calprotectin - so from IPLs recommendations we got him on some new supplements, after a couple of weeks the licking / chewing has gotten so much better. We will test again in a couple of months to see if the numbers are better.
