FUNCTIONAL LABS
As an IHP2 I have the ability to run certain labs for clients. Below I am going to breakdown the tests for you and provide a link where you can get more information on each test.
Note: If you would like to order a test and work with me as a client please do not actually order the tests through the links below. I can get the tests cheaper for you & set up in a way that I will be your IHP. If you order through the links it will be more expensive & it will assign you to a random IHP.
I've included the links because if you scroll down they give a sample report and show exactly what is measured so you can check out the test before deciding if you want to run it. All labs are done in the comfort of your home. No need to go to a physical location to get any of the samples. The kits are shipped to you and you ship them back from your house. Open to all U.S. states except New York.
Minerals and Metals- also known as HTMA: I am very excited to be able to run this lab as it is a more cost effective functional lab. Minerals run our body and identifying imbalances can help us properly supplement. This lab shows electrolyte minerals, mineral ratios, toxic minerals, oxidation rate and micro minerals.
Candida, Metabolic and Vitamins Test (also known as organic acid testing): 75 markers showing gut nutritional markers, vitamin markers, detoxification capacity, amino acid metabolites & mineral metabolism.
Food Sensitivity Testing: shows IGG reactions, candida and yeast markers. Note: I prefer to do this in conjunction with stool testing. Testing for food sensitivities without looking at what is going on in the gut and addressing it is a waste of $ in my opinion.
Stress, Mood and Metabolism Test: very comprehensive test showing estradiol, progesterone, DHEA, testosterone, cortisol, vitamin D, full thyroid panel, insulin and A1C.
Vitamin D Test: shows both D2 and D3
Gut Stool Testing: This is what I recommend for all clients with gut issues. It gives a very in-depth picture of what is going on in your gut. I have done this personally and have benefited greatly. It shows parasites, good and "bad" bacteria imbalances, parasites, inflammation markers, digestion markers and H. Pylori.
Omega 6 to Omega 3 Inflammation Test: This shows the ratio of omega 6 to omega 3. Americans are usually overloaded with 6's. We want a balanced ratio of the 2.
Progesterone Test: This checks progesterone levels only.
Testosterone Test: This checks testosterone levels only.
Thyroid TSH: This checks TSH levels only.
Estrogen Test: This checks Estradiol only.
Adrenal Cortisol Stress Test: This measures cortisol levels throughout the day to show whether you have high, low or imbalanced cortisol patterns.
Thyroid Panel Test: This shows a full thyroid panel.
Women's Wellness Test: This shows estradiol, progesterone and cortisol.
Men's Wellness Test: This shows testosterone, cortisol and DHEA.
Women's Fertility Test: This shows a full thyroid panel, sex hormones and cortisol. (Note: I can review but can't be the main IHP on this one)
Estrogen and Progesterone: This checks estrogen and progesterone levels only.
Glyphosate Toxicity Test: This checks glyphosate levels in the body.
