Lab Tests
Testing is an excellent tool to gain insight quickly into imbalances in the body and is precision nutrition. I offer a full range of testing including genetic - see below for a sample of test information.
Metabolomix – urine/buccal swab/blood spot, turnaround 14 days
The Metabolomix+ is a unique combination of nutritional tests that provides an analysis of key nutritional biomarkers. A first morning void (FMV) urine collection, with optional add-on bloodspot finger stick and buccal swab, the Metabolomix+ nutritional test is a non-invasive, patient-friendly way to assess the functional need for antioxidants, B-vitamins, minerals, digestive support, fatty acids, and amino acids. Insights gained from the Metabolomix+ nutritional test allows us to target nutritional therapies to meet the precise needs for you.
Vitamin D – blood spot, turnaround 12 day
