GI panels from $487.96 to $856.04 (regularly $609.95 to $1,043.95); H. pylori breath test $101.46, promotional pricing at time of writing.
At a glance
IBS and IBD lab panels bundle 16 to 25 individual tests, covering 77 to 95 biomarkers across blood and urine specimens, that measure markers associated with irritable bowel syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease. They are designed for adults with ongoing digestive symptoms who want a broad, objective baseline to review with their doctor. A standalone H. pylori breath test is also available for those whose main concern is ulcer-type stomach pain.
Best suited for
- Adults with ongoing bloating, irregular bowel habits, or abdominal discomfort seeking a broad lab baseline
- People whose doctor has mentioned IBS or IBD and who want comprehensive results to bring to a follow-up visit
- Anyone tracking gut-related markers over time alongside diet or therapy changes guided by their clinician
- Those comparing panel tiers to decide how wide a workup they want before an appointment

The importance of testing
Digestive symptoms rarely point to a single cause on their own. Bloating, irregular bowel habits, abdominal discomfort, and fatigue can each be associated with many different conditions, which is why broad lab workups exist: instead of testing one marker at a time, a panel measures dozens of markers in a single order so you and your doctor can look for patterns.
This promotion includes four tiers of gastrointestinal panels. The GI-4 IBS panel covers 16 tests and 77 biomarkers, the two inflammatory bowel disease panels cover 18 to 25 tests and 85 to 95 biomarkers, and a dedicated IBS-focused panel covers 18 tests and 79 biomarkers. All of them draw on blood, urine, and other specimen types, so a single order captures a wide cross-section of markers associated with gut inflammation and overall health.
Because these panels are repeatable, they are also useful for tracking. If you and your doctor establish a baseline, repeating key markers over time can show whether trends are moving in the right direction alongside diet changes, medication, or other care your clinician recommends. Bring the full report to your appointment, flagged results are conversation starters, not conclusions.
If your primary symptom is burning stomach pain that changes with meals, the H. pylori urea breath test included in this same promotion screens for the bacterium most often associated with peptic ulcers, and may be the simpler place to start.

What do IBS and IBD lab panels measure?
They measure 77 to 95 biomarkers across 16 to 25 individual tests, using blood, urine, and other specimen types, to capture markers associated with irritable bowel syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease. A panel gives you a broad snapshot in one order rather than testing single markers piecemeal. Review the full report with your doctor, who can interpret the results in the context of your symptoms.
Can these panels tell me whether I have IBS or IBD?
No, lab panels measure markers and flag results to review with your doctor; only a clinician can evaluate a condition. IBS and IBD are assessed using your history, symptoms, lab results, and sometimes imaging or endoscopy together. These panels give that conversation a strong, data-rich starting point.
Do I need a doctor's order to purchase one of these panels?
No doctor's visit is required, you can order directly online through the partner lab, provide your samples at a local lab location, and receive results securely. Bring the results to your own physician for interpretation and next steps.
Are these panels available in all US states?
No, direct-to-consumer lab testing is restricted or prohibited in New York, New Jersey, and Rhode Island, so residents of those states may be blocked at the partner's checkout. Most other US residents can order online and test at a nearby location.
Which panel tier should I choose?
Choose based on how broad a workup you and your doctor want: the 16-test GI-4 IBS panel is the leanest, the 18-test panels add more inflammation-associated coverage, and the 25-test GI-3 panel is the most comprehensive at 95 biomarkers. If ulcer-type stomach pain is your main symptom, the standalone H. pylori breath test may be a simpler starting point. When in doubt, ask your clinician which markers matter most for your situation.
