About Gut Protocols

Digestive health deserves better answers.

Gut Protocols is a Canadian digestive wellness company specializing in professional-grade supplements, at-home SIBO breath testing, and practical educational resources.

Based in Moncton, New Brunswick, we help individuals and healthcare practitioners access carefully selected products and testing services designed to support informed decisions, digestive balance, and long-term wellness.

Our focus is simple: make specialized digestive health support easier to understand, easier to access, and backed by dependable customer service.

What We Do

Gut Protocols offers a curated collection of professional-grade supplements, digestive wellness products, educational resources, and at-home SIBO breath testing.

Unlike general wellness retailers that carry thousands of unrelated products, digestive health is at the core of what we do. Every product is selected with a focus on quality, ingredient transparency, manufacturing standards, and its relevance within a digestive wellness routine.

We also work to source respected professional brands and specialized products that may be difficult to find through traditional Canadian retailers.

Why Gut Protocols

Specialized Digestive Health Focus

Gut health is not simply one department within our company. It is the foundation of our business. Our product selection and educational resources are built around digestive wellness, microbiome support, intestinal balance, and related health goals.

Carefully Selected Products

We prioritize reputable manufacturers, transparent formulations, professional-grade ingredients, and products chosen for a clear purpose. We do not believe that a larger catalogue is automatically a better catalogue.

At-Home SIBO Breath Testing

Gut Protocols provides at-home hydrogen and methane SIBO breath testing, with samples analyzed through our Canadian testing operation in Moncton, New Brunswick.

Test reports provide clinically relevant information that can help identify patterns in hydrogen and methane production. These results can be reviewed with a healthcare provider as part of a broader clinical assessment, alongside symptoms, medical history, and other relevant findings.

Real Customer Support

We believe customer service should feel personal, responsive, and accountable. Whether someone has a question about an order, a product, shipping, or the testing process, our goal is to provide clear information and practical support.

Canadian-Based, International Reach

From our base in New Brunswick, Gut Protocols serves customers across Canada, the United States, and internationally. As the company continues to grow, we remain committed to maintaining the personal service and attention that helped build the business.

Built on Experience

Gut Protocols was founded by Elmer Bernard, a former member of the Canadian Armed Forces.

Elmer’s interest in digestive wellness began through his own personal experiences and a desire to better understand the important role the gut can play in overall well-being.

What began as a search for better information and more effective product options gradually developed into a specialized digestive wellness business serving both individuals and healthcare professionals.

Today, Elmer continues to lead Gut Protocols as Founder and CEO, overseeing product sourcing, company growth, customer experience, educational development, and the expansion of the company’s testing and practitioner services.

Where We Are Going

Gut Protocols is continuing to evolve beyond an online supplement retailer.

We are expanding our professional product selection, educational resources, SIBO testing services, practitioner relationships, and access to specialized digestive wellness solutions within Canada and the US.

Our long-term goal is to become one of Canada’s most trusted destinations for professional-grade digestive health products, testing, information, and customer support.

As the digestive wellness field continues to develop, we remain committed to ongoing learning, responsible product research, and working with respected manufacturers and professionals.

Our Mission

Our mission is to make specialized digestive health products, testing, and educational information easier to access while delivering the level of service, transparency, and accountability customers should expect from a trusted wellness company.

We believe people make better wellness decisions when they have access to reliable information, quality products, and knowledgeable support.

Thank you for choosing Gut Protocols. We appreciate the opportunity to support you as you work toward your digestive wellness goals.
