When is a lactose intolerance test useful?

✔️ For recurring abdominal pain, bloating or a feeling of fullness after consuming dairy products
✔️ If lactose intolerance is suspected, e.g., after consuming milk, yogurt, or cream
✔️ For chronic digestive problems without a clear cause
✔️ To differentiate it from other intolerances or intestinal disorders
✔️ For targeted dietary adjustments in case of existing symptoms
✔️ Before changing your diet or if you suspect a nutrient deficiency
✔️ In cases of family history with known lactose intolerance
✔️ For everyone who wants to better understand their gut health

Why should I take the Microbiome Maxi Plus test?

Many people suffer from symptoms like bloating, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, or nausea – without realizing that lactose intolerance could be the cause. If your body can't properly break down lactose (milk sugar), it passes undigested into the large intestine. There, it's fermented by bacteria, producing gases like hydrogen and methane, which lead to the typical symptoms. The ORY lactose breath test helps you gain clarity: reliably, discreetly, and without a doctor's visit. With this comprehensive diagnostic tool, you can specifically address your diet and overall well-being – for fewer symptoms and a better quality of life.

Physical effects without lactase

The test results provide a clear picture of whether your body can properly digest lactose. The test is scientifically based on the detection of hydrogen (H₂) and methane (CH₄) in your breath – typical fermentation gases produced in the gut when you have lactose intolerance. If these levels rise significantly after consuming lactose, lactose malabsorption is highly likely. This knowledge is invaluable: you can specifically avoid lactose-containing products, ease the burden on your digestion, and gain a new quality of life. Our test uses highly precise gas chromatography – the same technology used in hospitals – and is therefore particularly reliable.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

How does the test relate to long-term health and self-healing?

The health of your gut influences almost all systems in the body – from the immune system and hormonal balance to mental well-being. An undiagnosed lactose intolerance can not only cause acute symptoms but also lead to long-term, silent inflammation, intestinal irritation, or nutrient deficiencies. With the ORY lactose breath test, you can detect such imbalances early and take targeted action. This promotes your body's self-healing abilities, strengthens your self-efficacy, and supports you on your individual path to holistic well-being. Prevention begins with knowledge – and you hold the key.

Who is the test suitable for?

For anyone with suspected lactose intolerance or unclear digestive problems.

Can I take the result to my doctor?

When used as directed, no side effects are known. If you experience any individual intolerances or allergies, discontinue use and consult a physician. This test is for analysis purposes only and is not intended to diagnose or treat any disease.

Will the test be covered by health insurance?

Not usually at the moment – ​​please inquire individually if necessary.

What does the result tell me?

Store the test kit in a cool, dry place between 2°C and 25°C, away from direct sunlight. The product should not be frozen. Samples should be shipped promptly after collection to ensure the quality of the results. Keep out of reach of children.
