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).
