In short: Calgary residents can order the GI-MAP™ gut microbiome stool test online and complete it at home — no clinic visit or referral needed. It ships free to any Calgary address, costs $769.99–$869.99 CAD all-in, and results are ready 7–9 business days after the lab receives your sample.
The Most Comprehensive Gut Test, Delivered to Your Calgary Door
The GI-MAP™ (GI Microbial Assay Plus) is the gold-standard functional stool test, using quantitative PCR (qPCR) DNA technology to detect and quantify 85+ biomarkers — bacterial and parasitic pathogens, H. pylori with 8 virulence factors, viruses, fungi/Candida, beneficial flora, and intestinal-health markers like calprotectin and secretory IgA. It's the same test Calgary's naturopathic doctors and functional-medicine clinics use to investigate chronic gut symptoms — only here you can order it directly, in Canadian dollars, without becoming a patient first.

Order Direct — or Bring the Results to Your Calgary Practitioner
Many Calgary clinics (in neighbourhoods from the Beltline and Kensington to the suburbs) offer the GI-MAP™, but typically require an initial appointment and a separate consultation or interpretation fee before they'll order your kit. Ordering through this Canadian portal is different:
- No clinic visit, no referral — order online and collect your sample at home in private.
- Free shipping across Calgary & Alberta via Canada Post — including Airdrie, Cochrane, Okotoks, Chestermere and Red Deer.
- All-in CAD pricing with a prepaid return label — no surprise consult fee, no USD conversion.
- Practitioner intake included — a licensed Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner reviews your history and helps you choose the right panel.
- Already have a naturopath? Order it yourself and simply share the report — the results are practitioner-grade either way.

Who in Calgary Should Consider the GI-MAP™?
Calgarians dealing with chronic bloating, IBS, constipation or diarrhea, suspected H. pylori, parasites or Candida, food sensitivities, autoimmune flares, skin issues (eczema, acne), brain fog or fatigue — especially when conventional Alberta lab testing came back "normal" but symptoms persist. The GI-MAP™ is a private-pay test (not covered by AHCIP), but it's HSA-eligible and claimable as a CRA medical expense.
