The Gut Health Protocol
Bloating, pain, urgency or a gut that’s never quite right. Most people are told it’s “probably IBS” before anyone checks. Fig tests first: coeliac disease, gut inflammation, infection and the deficiencies that follow, reviewed by a GP who acts on what comes back.
- Full gut panel: bloods and stool testing, done properly
- Every result explained, with a clear answer either way
- 12-month protocol with check-ins as symptoms settle
If this is you
- Bloated most days
- Food decides your plans
- Told it’s “just IBS”
- Cut foods, still not better
- Always tired, no idea why
- Bathroom habits have changed
What we look at:
Full gut panel
- Coeliac blood test, plus iron studies, B12, folate and vitamin D to show whether your gut is absorbing what you eat
- Faecal calprotectin, a stool marker that helps tell gut inflammation apart from IBS
- Stool testing for infections and parasites, plus inflammation, liver, kidney and thyroid markers
Symptom and diet history review
- What your symptoms are, when they happen and what makes them worse
- What you’ve already cut out or tried, and what changed
- Family history, medications, stress and sleep, reviewed as one picture
Targeted investigation where your results indicate it
- H. pylori testing where your symptoms point to it
- Gastroenterology referral if your results need specialist eyes
- A plan matched to the cause, not a list of foods to fear

What is Fig?
Fig is an Australian digital health clinic bringing GP-led care, a dedicated care team and your care plan together in one connected experience.
Where is Fig available?
Fig is available to patients located in all Australian states and territories: New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory and the Northern Territory. Fig is not available outside Australia. You must have an Australian residential address and be located in Australia at the time of your consultation, and we can only deliver medication to Australian addresses.
Who is it for?
Adults who want a doctor-led weight or health protocol with ongoing monitoring rather than a one-off consult. Eligibility is confirmed by a GP after your health check.
Do I need to already have a prescription or a GP?
No. You do not need an existing prescription or a regular GP. Your Fig doctor reviews your health check and decides what is appropriate for you.
How is this different from other weight-loss options?
Care does not stop at the prescription. You keep the same doctor, a care team checking in, and monitoring that continues for as long as you are on the protocol.
