The Allergix® Profile helps identify IgG-mediated food intolerances to 90 specific foods, which indicate delayed or non-atopic reactions which exacerbate or contribute to many different health problems

The Amino Acids Analysis nutritional test helps to identify metabolic imbalances underlying many chronic disorders. Specifically, this nutritional test evaluates for adequate dietary protein and metabolic imbalances underlying many chronic disorders.

Aperiomics is a pathogen test combining deep next-generation sequencing (NGS) with its powerful Xplore∙NGS℠ software. This combination of technologies allows biological sample to be tested for over 30,000 bacterias, viruses, parasites, and fungi.

The Bone Resorption Assessment is a simple urinary test that provides an accurate assessment, identifying current rate of bone loss, lytic bone disease, and efficacy of bone support therapies, and thereby the rate of bone turnover in an individual. Examines pyridinium crosslinks and deoxypyridinoline to identify those more likely to develop osteoporosis.

The Cardio ION is assessment that identifies risk factors for cardiovascular disease by measuring fibrinogen, C-Reactive Protein, Homocysteine, Lipoprotein(a), AA/EPA Ratio, Testosterone, CoQ10, Insulin, RBC Magnesium, LDL/HDL Ratio, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

The Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis 2.0™ (CDSA 2.0) is a gastrointestinal stool test which offers a comprehensive look at the overall health of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.The CDSA 2.0 provides information using advanced biomarkers that evaluate digestion, absorption, pancreatic function, and inflammation, in addition to bacterial balance, yeast, and parasite infection and can help identify inflammatory conditions such as IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease), food allergies, NSAID enteropathy, and post-infectious Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).

This comprehensive profile helps pinpoint the causes of gastrointestinal symptoms and chronic systemic conditions, and measures key markers of digestion, absorption and inflammation by evaluating the status of beneficial and pathogenic microorganisms including aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, yeast and parasites, antimicrobial susceptibility for appropriate bacterial and fungal species and parasitology.

Measures the levels of three estrogens (Estrone, Estriol, and Estradiol), Progesterone, Testosterone, DHEA, and 4 Cortisol levels over the course of the day.  The ratio of Estradiol to Progesterone is also determined, which is an indicator of estrogen dominance.

The Estronex^® Profile measures six important estrogen metabolites and their ratios to help women, and even men, assess whether he or she is at an increased long term risk of developing breast, cervical, and other estrogen sensitive cancers.

The GI Effects Comprehensive Stool Profile is an advanced stool test that provides immediate, actionable clinical information for the management of gut health. 

This stool analysis determines the presence of ova and parasites such as protozoa, flatworms, and roundworms; Crytosporidium parvum, Entamoeba histolytica, and microorganisms that are normally present in the intestines and Helicobacter pylori (h. pylori) is a bacterium which can be found in the stomach mucosa of infected individuals.

The GPL-TOX screens for the presence of 168 different toxic chemicals including organophosphate pesticides, phthalates, benzene, xylene, vinyl chloride, pyrethrin insecticides, and others. This profile also includes Tiglyglycine (TG), a marker for mitochondrial disorders resulting from mutations of mitochondrial DNA. These mutations can be caused by exposure to toxic chemicals, infections, inflammation, and nutritional deficiencies.

Hair Elements analysis provides information regarding recent and ongoing exposure to potentially toxic metals, especially methylmercury and arsenic, and time-averaged status of specific nutrient elements.

IGeneX covers a wider spectrum of Lyme and TBRF Borrelia species and looks for more and detects more, no matter when you were exposed.

Intestinal Permeability Assessment is a powerful noninvasive gastrointestinal test assessment of small intestinal absorption and barrier function in the bowel. Malabsorption and increased intestinal permeability (“leaky gut”) can disrupt the small intestine’sfunction ofdigestion/absorptionof nutrients, immunity and mechanical barrier against excessive absorption of bacteria, food antigens, and other macromolecules associated with chronic gastrointestinal imbalances as well as many systemic disorders.

Mediator Release Test is a functional, more inclusive, measurement of diet-induced sensitivity pathways quantifying the inflammatory response to foods and food-chemicals giving insight into inflammation provoking triggers and endpoint hypersensitivity reactions thus identifying the bad AND good foods and therefore truly safe foods recommendations to be utilized in the LEAP diet plan.

Identifying and managing neurotransmitter imbalances is facilitated with a noninvasive urinary test to understand specific neuroendocrine imbalances, which can be corrected with nutraceuticals, BHRT, diet, and lifestyle interventions.  Neurotransmitters are the brain chemicals that facilitate the transmission of signals from one neuron to the next across a synapse and work with receptors in the brain to influence and regulate a wide range of processes such as mental performance, emotions, pain response and energy levels.

Detailed Organic Acids Test:The Organic Acids Test (OAT) provides an accurate evaluation of intestinal yeast and bacteria that can cause or worsen behavior disorders, hyperactivity, movement disorders, fatigue and immune function. Many people with chronic illnesses and neurological disorders often excrete several abnormal organic acids.
Microbial Organic Acids Test: This test primarily measures metabolites of yeast or pathogenic

The Optimal Nutritional Evaluation (ONE) will help understand a patients’ individual diet and supplementation needs. This panel includes key organic acids to evaluate gastrointestinal function and functional need for vitamins, minerals, and co-factors. In addition, amino acids are measured to assess digestion, absorption, metabolic impairments, and nutritional deficits. Anti-oxidant reserves and the presence of oxidative injury are analyzed.

Genova’s SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth) Profiles are non-invasive breath tests which capture exhaled hydrogen (H2) and methane (CH4) gases following patient ingestion of a lactulose solution to evaluate bacterial overgrowth of the small intestine.

This test evaluates stool samples for levels of beneficial flora, imbalanced flora, and possible pathogens, including aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, as well as yeasts.  (It does not test for the presence of parasites or their eggs.)

The Toxic Effects CORE is a comprehensive and cost-effective tool that narrows down on the areas of toxic burden of the six most common classes of toxic chemicals (Phthalates, Parabens, Chlorinated Pesticides, PCBs, Volatile Solvents, Organophosphates, & BPAs) that are widespread in the environment and can cause chronic health conditions like autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases, as well as cancer and even diabetes.

Toxic Effects Profile shows levels of metals (aluminum, arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury), PCBs, and volatile solvents that have been documented to cause adverse health problems.

Depending on our health and exposures, we tend to absorb a certain percentage of toxic metals, which can cause significant health problems over time.Urine Elements are traditionally used to evaluate exposure to potentially toxic elements and wasting of nutrient elements utilizing provoking agents.
