MRT/LEAP Food Sensitivity Testing - Is Your Food Making You Sick?

Food sensitivity testing is one of the most important functional medicine tests a person can use to help identify common sources feeding the inflammation within the body. The first thing a food sensitivity sufferer needs to do is identify their trigger foods.

Skin allergy testing will only correctly identify up to 40% of food sensitivities. IgG testing only tests for food exposure – not food tolerance. ALCAT food sensitivity testing cannot measure lymphocyte reacts (T-cells, NK cells), and are based on old technology.

MRT/LEAP precisely measures changes to whole blood and a patient specific elimination diet/anti-inflammatory diet is developed. In a blinded peer-reviewed scientific study, MRT was found to have the highest level of accuracy of any food sensitivity blood test (94.5% sensitivity, and 91.8% specificity).

Qest4 Meridian Stress Testing

The Meridian Stress Assessment (MSA) is a painless, non-invasive analysis using an FDA-approved measurement device to detect imbalances in your health. The MSA allows your natural health care provider to detect dysfunctions associated with symptoms you’ve been experiencing. Meridian Stress Assessment analyzes acupuncture points on your skin associated with your major organ systems or meridians. The evaluation determines the stress that each organ meridian is under, along with specific natural remedies to bring them back into balance.

Neurotransmitter Testing - Dealing With Mood Swings or an Emotional Imbalance?

Neurotransmitters and hormones help our body communicate and play a vital role in our emotions and outlook on life. Neurotransmitter testing identifies which neurotransmitters and hormones need nutritional support. This is a personalized, non-prescription approach to your neurotransmitter and endocrine health.

Stress & Sex Hormone Testing

Your stress hormone, coritisol, shares a delicate balance with your sex hormones DHEA, Testosterone, Progesterone and Estrogen, as well as your neurotransmitters. High stress can deplete your sex hormones, leaving you with lack of seuxal interest, thinning skin, lower bone mineral density, mood swings or insomnia.
