This combination provides comprehensive assessment of both
metabolic function and microbiome composition, particularly
valuable in:
● Complex cases with both systemic and digestive symptoms
● Suspected fungal and bacterial imbalances
● Cases where both mitochondrial and digestive functions
need evaluation [23]
BiomeFX + Cyrex Array 22
This pairing evaluates both the microbiome itself and the immune
response to it, appropriate for:
● Confirmed dysbiosis with suspected immune involvement
● Post-infectious IBS with ongoing symptoms despite
microbiome-focused interventions
● Cases with both digestive symptoms and extraintestinal
manifestations [24]
OAT + Cyrex Array 22
This combination assesses metabolic impacts and immune
responses, useful in:
● Cases with both metabolic dysfunction and suspected
immune activation
● Systemic symptoms that suggest both metabolic compromise
and bacterial translocation
● When fungal overgrowth may be contributing to barrier
dysfunction [25]
