A. Body Granola is mainly made from carbohydrate-rich ingredients such as grains and dried fruits.When enjoying it as part of a meal, please eat it as a staple food, similar to bread or rice.

As Body Granola does not contain sufficient protein and may not supply all necessary nutrients (despite added vitamins and minerals).We recommend pairing it with protein-rich foods such as milk, yogurt, soy milk, oat milk, or almond milk, along with vegetables and fruits.

You can also enjoy it on its own, without adding milk or yogurt, depending on your preference.

A. If the stool collection sheet tears, you can use folded toilet paper as a substitute.
Please make sure to position the toilet paper so that the stool sample does not come into contact with water in the toilet bowl.
Toilet paper is safe to use, as it dissolves easily when flushed.

If you are unable to collect your sample properly using toilet paper, please contact us through the form below for assistance.
