Organic Acid Test
This test will evaluate many medical conditions that have one or more abnormal Organic Acid compounds, due to abnormal levels of yeast and other gastrointestinal bacteria. These compounds can affect, among other things, neurologic functioning, vitamin utilization, energy level, intestinal wall integrity, hormone utilization, and muscle functions.

Organic Acid, Yeast Culture and Sensitivity Combo
This Combo panel includes three tests for the presence of yeast. The Organic Acid Test measures yeast metabolites in the urine. In the yeast culture and sensitivity test a culture is grown and the stool sample is examined under the microscope. If the yeast grows in culture, sensitivity of that yeast to prescription antifungals and to natural antimicrobials is determined.

Amino Acids - Urine and Plasma
Amino acid levels help assess inborn errors of metabolism, vitamin and mineral functional deficiencies, protein intolerance, or lack of weight gain or weight loss. Plasma amino acid testing shows the circulation amino acids available for building structural proteins, for building immunoglobins, and transport and storage of proteins.

Food and Inhalant Allergy Testing
Food and Inhalant Allergies cause your body to produce antibodies which can make you feel tired or even sick. Most people are concerned with getting checked for food allergies because of the possibility for a severe reaction that can be life threatening. It is important to know that even a subtle allergic reaction can be a huge factor in causing other ailments such as IBS. The impact of food allergies on behavior can be profound, and individuals often crave the same foods that cause allergic reactions.

Heavy Metal Analysis
Heavy metals toxicity caused by increasing levels of pollution and use of chemicals in industry is a growing threat to our health and development of our children. High levels of toxic metals deposited in body tissues and subsequently in the brain, may cause significant developmental and neurological damage as well as have a potential role in causing oxidation-induced cancer or auto-immune issues.

Comprehensive Cardiovascular Panel
Cholesterol testing has historically been used as the standard indicator for cardiovascular disease classified as HDL (good) or LDL (bad). However, it is actually the lipoprotein particles that carry the cholesterol throughout the body, not necessarily the cholesterol within them, that are responsible for key steps in plaque production and the resulting development of cardiovascular disease. Approximately 50 percent of people suffering from heart attacks have shown "normal" cholesterol numbers (NHLBI The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute). Now there is an advanced cholesterol testing technology, which accurately measures both the density and number of lipoprotein particles.
