DIAGNOSTIC TESTING

Test, don’t guess.

  • Blood Tests are an invaluable diagnostic tool for assessing health. Testing may include nutrient levels, metabolic markers, hormones, enzymes, antibodies or other specific molecules.

  • Either a Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis or Complete Microbiome Map analyses a client’s gut health. Investigating:

    - Normal bacteria

    - Opportunistic/dysbiotic bacteria

    - Bacterial and viral pathogens

    - Potential autoimmune triggering bacteria

    - Helicobacter pylori

    - Fungi/Yeast

    - Parasites

    - Worms

    - Leaky gut

    - Inflammation in the bowel

    - Immune response (in the gut) to gluten

    - Beta-glucoronidase

  • SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) breath test is a non-invasive test that measures the amount of hydrogen or methane that you breathe out at defined periods of time, after drinking a mixture of glucose or fructose and water. This confirms whether you have an overgrowth of bacteria in your small intestine.

  • Heavy metals and toxins can be stored in the tissues and a HTMA is a safe and non-invasive test measuring the levels and comparative ratios of nutrient and toxic minerals found in hair.

  • Saliva can provide an accurate measure of reproductive and adrenal hormones that are actively available for use by the body. It is a non-invasive test that can easily be completed at home.

  • The DUTCH (Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones) test analyses the way our hormones are metabolised in the body. This test can also ascertain adrenal function and testosterone metabolism in both women and men.

  • Food intolerances occur when a person is exposed to reactive or hard-to-digest foods over a long period, and they generally elicit an IgG immune response. Whilst this response may not be life-threatening, it can contribute to symptoms such as bloating, flatulence, skin sensitivities, brain fog and mood disturbances.
