MycoTOX Profile by Mosaic Diagnostics

Mycotoxins are produced by mold species. They are some of the most prevalent toxins and come from many sources including buildings, cars, and food. Mold is a growing health concern and have many acute and chronic health impacts. Current research shows mold to be one of the underlying root causes of many chronic illnesses such as chronic inflammatory syndrome, lung disorders, autoimmune disorders, and more. Symptoms are often hard to pinpoint and you must use proper testing for a true diagnosis.

The MycoTOX Profile by Mosaic Diagnostics is a urine-based assay that will assess levels of 11 different mycotoxins. Our providers use this mycotoxin test to detect what species of mold you may have been exposed to and formulate a therapeutic strategy for detoxification.

Comprehensive Urine Elements Profile (Heavy Metals) by Genova Diagnostics

There are a range of ways to detox naturally and safely from heavy metal poisoning from diet to IV therapy. Our providers are happy to assist you with testing and formulating a detoxification plan.

DUTCH Test (Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones)

The DUTCH Test is a dried urine test that looks at sex hormones and their metabolites. The DUTCH goes in depth to survey the HPA-Axis function to measure cortisol metabolites. This test also provides insight into nutritional deficiencies, oxidative stress, dysbiosis, melatonin production, inflammation and more. This test may be indicated for those who are having symptoms of hormonal such as fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, mood swings, depression, or major hair loss. The DUTCH test illustrates an excellent picture of the function of your sex hormones and cortisol metabolites and allows our providers to make a more precise clinical diagnosis of imbalances in order to begin appropriate HRT and monitoring.

Saliva Hormone Panel by ZRT Labs

Hormones are a fundamental part of our health and are involved throughout the whole body. Hormones influence mood, memory, energy, sleep, weight, libido, and fertility. The ZRT Saliva Test is a non-invasive test for hormones like cortisol, progesterone, and androgens circulating through our tissues. Unlike other hormone tests, patients do not need to stop hormone supplementation to use this test. ZRT measures hormones from a single morning sample, which represents the peak of daily hormone production – the optimal time to measure.

Micronutrient Test by Cell Science Systems

Cell Science Systems’ Cellular Micronutrient Assay measures 55 vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other nutrients. It provides information about the long-term nutrient stores inside your cells. Vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and fatty acids are essential to your health, and they are utilized within cells and are the “spark” behind metabolic reactions. This test can give some insight to what nutrients might be lacking from your diet so you can better support your nutrition and optimize your health status.

Food Sensitivity by US-Biotek

Food sensitivities are inflammatory responses of the immune system triggered by food allergens. Unlike food allergies, the symptoms of a food sensitivity often occur hours or even days after exposure, making it difficult to pinpoint the specific offending food(s). This delayed reaction is what causes the majority of the 12 million people estimated to suffer from food sensitivities unaware and blame things like aging for their chronic symptoms. US-Biotek’s Food Sensitivity Test measures 96 different common foods and provides insight into what may be causing symptoms such as eczema, acne, bloating and GI upset, diarrhea, fatigue, and more.

Tickborne Illness Testing

Tickborne diseases are rising throughout the US from a variety of ticks, which carry and pass on different microorganisms to humans and animals. Tickborne diseases have more than doubled in 13 years and represent 77% of all vector-borne disease reports. Lyme disease accounts for 82% of all cases.
