Specialty Lab Summary
Below are some of the specialty laboratory tests we offer:
-
Comprehensive Metabolic Organic Acid Testing (urine)- An extremely cost effective method to determine B-Vitamin
Status (energy, digestion, muscle function, nerve function), Cellular
Energy Processes (weight & vigor), Neural Function (stress, mental
processing, emotional processing, behavior), Detoxification (brain fog,
headaches, sleep, nausea, chemical sensitivity), Bowel Bacteria &
Yeast, and Antioxidant Status.
-
Nutrient Depletion Analysis (Vitamin, Mineral &
Amino Acid Testing)–Measures levels of important nutritional
factors, assisting in the identification of sub-optimal levels or
deficiencies.
-
Saliva & Blood Female Hormone Testing– Useful for treating menstrual irregularities,
peri-menopause, PCOS, fibroids, infertility, and other related disorders.
-
Neurotransmitter Testing (urine)– Useful
in the treatment of anxiety, depression, bipolar, ADD/ADHD, anorexia
nervosa, and other mental health disorders.
-
Adrenal Stress Index– Useful in identifying a
common cause of fatigue, sleep disorders, depression, chronic stress, and
other symptoms related to a disruption in cortisol rhythm.
-
Heavy Metal Testing (Urine collection with or
without challenge)– Many conditions have been associated with heavy
metal toxicity (elevated total body burden). Random blood testing will
only show an acute exposure to heavy metals and will not demonstrate that
which has accumulated over time and been stored elsewhere in the body.
-
Chemical Toxicity Testing– Chronic health
conditions like autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases, as well as
cancer and even diabetes, have been associated with ongoing exposure to
environmental toxins. By testing which chemicals have the highest
accumulation, treatment can be targeted and tracked.
-
Food & Environmental Allergy Testing–IgG and
IgE food allergy panels are performed. IgG tests for food
sensitivities and delayed reactions, where-as IgE tests for immediate
anaphylactic reactions. We are also using a food sensitivity test
which pairs IgG with the inflammation marker C3d and is not dependent on
exposure for accurate results.
-
Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis– A
complete assessment of normal and abnormal microbes (bacteria, parasites,
yeast) in addition to the degree of digestion taking place
(enzymes and inflammatory markers measured).
