Frequently asked questions

Trio-Smart is a doctor-ordered breath test that uses an at-home sample collection kit. Using the kit, you collect your samples by breathing into 9 collection bags over a 2-hour period. The first bag is considered a “baseline” sample, and the remaining samples are collected after you drink a sugar substrate drink. You then send your samples to our CLIA-certified lab (Prepaid shipping materials are included.), and results are reported to your ordering provider within seven business days. Trio-Smart is the only three-gas breath test that measures all of the primary fermented gases produced in your gut: hydrogen, methane, and hydrogen sulfide.
