Sucrose Intolerance Breath Test
Stomach pain or low blood sugar episodes disrupting your life?
Sucrose intolerance can cause many issues, not the least of which are concerning low blood sugar episodes, heart palpitations, and digestive pain. Now it’s much easier to diagnose with our best-in-class sucrose breath test.
Sucrose intolerance can look like one of a dozen other digestive disorders, including lactose intolerance or IBS, so it can be tough to diagnose. Our sucrose intolerance test is non-invasive and can help determine whether your gas, bloating, stomach cramps and anxiety are at least partly due to sucrose intolerance.
Markers Measured
Sucrose Malabsorption Breath Test markers measured:
- Hydrogen Gas
- Methane Gas
- Carbon Dioxide
Our QuinTron breath tests for fructose malabsorption, sucrose intolerance, and lactose intolerance use hydrogen/methane breath testing technology. This approach analyzes breath samples for elevated levels of both gases produced by bacterial fermentation of unabsorbed sugars in the gut. The QuinTron gas chromatography analyzers specifically detect hydrogen, methane, and CO2 concentrations for precise diagnosis across these conditions.
