This test is a thorough look at gut health using DNA PCR technology. It assesses levels of good and bad bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites. In addition, it tests for markers of inflammation, barrier function and malabsorption. This is an essential test for those with IBS, Crohn’s, ulcerative colitis, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, autoimmune issues and weight problems.

This test measures the effect of stress on your body. This includes emotional, dietary, infectious or inflammatory type stress. It is an important tool for evaluating adrenal imbalances that may be impacting a patient’s health. This test assesses 6 cortisol levels, and DHEA-S. Adrenal imbalances are often at the root of many other hormone imbalances such as sex hormones and thyroid hormone. It is also crucial in fatigue, mood disorders and autoimmune disease.

The Organix Comprehensive Profile provides a view into the body’s cellular metabolic processes and the efficiency of metabolic function. Organic acids are metabolic intermediates that are produced in pathways of central energy production, detoxification, neurotransmitter breakdown, or intestinal microbial activity. Marked accumulation of specific organic acids detected in urine often signals a metabolic inhibition or block. The metabolic block may be due to a nutrient deficiency, an inherited enzyme deficiency, toxic build-up or drug effect. Several of the analytes are markers of intestinal, bacterial, or yeast overgrowth.

Micronutrient testing is an innovative assessment of a patient’s nutritional status. Core nutrients are measured in in 5 key areas: antioxidants, B Vitamins, digestive support, essential fatty acids, and minerals. Nutritional deficiencies are often at the root of many chronic diseases and symptoms such as: mood disorders, depression, anxiety, sleep disturbances, fibromyalgia, and fatigue, diabetes, and heart disease. It can also be used to optimize health and fitness for athletes.

1 out of 7 Americans suffer from a wheat related disorder. This test is designed to distinguish how your body reacts to wheat—whether it is celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity, non-gluten wheat sensitivity or other autoimmune responses triggered by gluten. This profile also includes markers of intestinal permeability (leaky gut) including zonulin, actin and LPS. (The intestinal permeability portion is also available as a stand alone test). These tests are run on advanced microchip technology which ensures 99% accuracy.

We live in a very toxic world where we encounter chemical and toxins daily. In some occupations, the risk for heavy metals and toxin poisoning is much greater. Evidence suggests that chronic toxic element exposure can adversely affect: energy levels, reproductive function, cancer risk of all kinds, neurological development and function, respiratory, cardiac, liver, and immune functions, cognitive and emotional health and degenerative conditions. Chronic toxin exposure may masquerade as many different diseases.

Traditional cholesterol testing is not adequate to assess an individual’s true risk factors for heart disease. It’s been found that about 50% of patients who have heart attacks have “normal” cholesterol and furthermore high cholesterol in most populations is not always cause for alarm. The other risk factors include the types and size of cholesterol particles, markers of inflammation, endothelial dysfunction and metabolic function. Advanced cardiometabolic testing can reveal these risk factors and direct preventive care.

This test measures levels of IgG antibodies specific to anywhere from 30-200 foods causing patient reactions. IgG antibodies are associated with “non-allergic” or “delayed” food reactions that can worsen or contribute to many health conditions. It may also indicate the presence of leaky gut syndrome and other digestive issues.
