Tests for: Deficiencies in vitamins, minerals, amino acids, fatty acids, antioxidants, and enzymes.

Food Allergy and Food Sensitivity Testing
Tests for: Food allergies and food sensitivities for over 200 foods, food additives, food colorings, drugs, toxins, and molds.
Benefits: Eliminating foods from your diet that you are sensitive to is an effective way to reduce chronic inflammation and gastrointestinal issues and increase overall well being.
Gastrointestinal (GI) Function Testing
Tests for: Digestion and absorption of macronutrients; microflora and gut ecology (including beneficial and pathogenic bacteria, fungi, and yeast); and immunology and inflammatory markers.
Benefits: Improved digestion and absorption of nutrients means that your body will get more out of the foods you eat. Increasing beneficial bacteria and eliminating pathogenic bacteria, yeast, and fungi can help eliminate GI disorders. A healthy GI system reduces chronic, systemic inflammation and improves immunity.
Parasitology and Opportunistic Microorganisms
Tests for: Parasites, yeast, fungi, viruses, and bacteria.
Benefits: Eliminating opportunistic organisms from your body can help increase energy levels, improve skin appearance, and prevent sickness and disease.
Immune System Function Tests
Tests for: Immunoglobins and lymphocytes.
Benefits: A healthy immune system means that you’ll be less likely to get sick. It will also improve your recovery from intense training and help prevent certain chronic diseases.
Diseases and Disease Risk Testing
Tests for: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and CVD risk, Type II diabetes and diabetes risk, cancer, osteoporosis and osteoporosis risk, anemia, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Lyme disease, Celiac disease, and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
Benefits: Early detection of disease risk allows you to take preventative action.
Neurotransmitter Efficiency Testing
Tests for: Levels of neurotransmitters and neurotransmitter precursors.
Benefits: Neurotransmitters play a vital role in mood, energy, physical fitness, cognitive function, and many other areas.
Hormone Status Testing
Tests for: Hormone levels including androgens, estrogens, thyroid and pituitary hormones, cortisol, DHEA, and growth factors.
Benefits: Balancing hormone levels can help improve energy and vitality and prevent disease.
Organ and Gland Health Testing
Tests for: Function of liver, kidneys, thyroid, adrenals, and pancreas.
Benefits: Testing organ and glandular function can help pinpoint the causes of your specific health problems.
Toxic Heavy Metal Testing
Tests for: Fecal, urine, and blood levels of mercury, lead, aluminum, and other toxic heavy metals.
Benefits: Reducing toxic amounts of heavy metals can improve energy levels and prevent disease (especially cognitive disorders like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s).
Men’s Health and Prostate Health Testing
