Calprotectina spiegata: cos'è, perché è importante e come aiuta il tuo medico


In this calprotectin explained guide, you’ll learn what calprotectin is, why it matters, and how a simple stool test can help your doctor diagnose inflammation—giving you clarity and confidence. Calprotectin itself is a protein released by white blood cells when the gut lining is inflamed. The stool test measures calprotectin levels, and higher results indicate intestinal inflammation. This objective data helps your clinician differentiate inflammatory conditions like inflammatory bowel disease from other causes of symptoms, guiding the next steps in care and giving you a clearer path forward. At InnerBuddies, we offer a white-label Gut Health Operating System that powers gut microbiome testing products for brands and consumers alike.
