CDSA results questions. Advice please.

[northerngirl]

I finally got the results from my genova CDSA. I went to see the natropath that ordered it for me. According her/the test I have low stomach acid. She wants me to supp with betaine hcl for a while. She also wanted me to take L glutamine. Drink marshmallow tea.

Take probiotics.

She has not had many people order the test, probably due to cost. For some reason I feel like maybe she can't piece all the parts together to say what is wrong with me, so I thought I would get some advice here.

One part of the test, the Beta Glucuronidase, she was not familiar with and needed to have a phone conference with the genova folks to find out more about it as I was HIGH (ref range 337-4433 U/g), I was at 4738 U/g.

Here's the results for the rest of the test: Red are the ones of concern?
