Candida dubliniensis

Candida dubliniensis is a yeast species closely related to Candida albicans and can be part of the normal microbial flora in the gastrointestinal tract. Under certain conditions, such as weakened immunity, dysbiosis, or high sugar intake, it can overgrow and contribute to fungal imbalance and gastrointestinal symptoms. It is less common than C. albicans but shares many similar characteristics, including its ability to form biofilms and cause mucosal infections. Measuring its levels in stool helps assess fungal overgrowth and the balance of the gut mycobiome.

The home test was straightforward with easy to follow instructions. The test result was detailed and clear in its presentation. Also had the opportunity to ask questions about the test result.

We looked at a lot of companies offering the same services but made the decision to go forward with get tested because the labs are based here in the UK. The process has been very straight forward.

There are other providers out there, I have tried 3. Gettested was the fastest and the customer service was the best. I even received my test on the day of purchase delivered by a motorbike courier.

I found them to be professional and not too long a wait for results. Helpful with any after questions. Will be using them again if need be. I highly recommend them.
