Food Sensitivity, Micronutrient + Metabolic Testing

Food and environment sensitivity is different from an allergy in a few ways.  An allergy provides a histamine response such as hives, but a sensitivity causes activation of the immune system.  Chronic activation of the immune system can cause digestive orders, migraines, obesity, chronic fatigue, aching joints, skin disorders and more.  ALCAT testing is available to test over 400 agents for sensitivity including foods, food additives, food colorings, medicinal herbs, molds and chemicals.  Professional athletes and sports teams use ALCAT testing to correctly fuel and fine tune their bodies and training.

A simple blood draw done in house or at any lab test now,  will start the process.  After the lab work is completed we will meet to discuss dietary changes and other supplementation you may need to alter in order to feel your best. You also receive a FREE 30 minute phone consultation with ALCAT’s nutritionist to discuss your results.  Ortho Molecular Nutrition Supplementation is available at an additional cost.

Micronutrient Testing

Do you wonder if you “need” to take vitamin or mineral supplements, or if the ones you are taking are actually being absorbed and doing what they are intended to do? Is the quality of your supplements substandard, and are you getting little to no benefit, thus essentially wasting your money? Are you taking more than you need to and causing depletion of other essential nutrients in the body? Micronutrient testing through SpectraCell Laboratories measures the biochemical function of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants, and exactly what is needed for YOUR body.

A simple blood draw done in house or at Any Lab Test Now on Mayfair Rd, will start the process.  After the lab work is completed, we will meet to discuss dietary changes and other supplementation you may need in order to get you feeling your best.  Ortho Molecular Nutrition Supplementation is available at an additional cost.

Hormone Testing

Hormones play a HUGE role in feeling and aging well.  It affects your sleep, weight gain/loss, sex drive, internal and external aging, mood, memory and various disease processes.  Men can suffer from a decreased sex drive and muscle mass loss due to a lowered level of testosterone.  We can test your estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, adrenals and human growth hormone levels.

Traditional thyroid testing only gives part of the picture, and hormone replacement is not customized to your individual needs.  A take home saliva kit is sent to the lab and your results are sent to us, as well as a compounding pharmacy specializing in BHRT( Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy). After reviewing your results, a customized personal plan including BHRT and Ortho Molecular Nutrition Supplementation is developed.  Ortho Molecular Nutrition Supplementation is available at an additional cost.
