pH, Stool

This test measures the acidity level of your stool to see how well your body breaks down food. It helps show whether you are properly absorbing sugars and fats, which is useful for investigating chronic diarrhea or digestive discomfort. These results can help rule out or point toward conditions like lactose intolerance or other absorption issues in the small intestine. However, an abnormal pH level does not identify the specific cause of the problem on its own.
