Is stool testing ok while on the low carb Candida diet?

I’m going to have the Genova Diagnostics targeted stool test. Should I continue to remain on my low carb Candida/SIBO diet for the test, or should I be consuming carbs in preparation so that overgrowths can be detected?

Yes, I would remain on the low carb Candida diet.

If you are taking probiotics as well I would stop taking them two weeks prior to taking the test.

When you get the results back, if you would like, you can email me the test results and I will give you my opinion.
