Functional Medicine Testing 

Specialty Lab Testing:

Gut Health

  • GI MAP Comprehensive Stool Test: Have you heard the saying “All disease begins in the gut”? Gut and Digestive health is at the foundation of Functional Medicine because if you aren’t properly absorbing your nutrients from the food you eat, then your body will not be able to heal. We use this test to check for: Bacterial and Viral Pathogens, Parasites, H, Pylori Infection, Dysbiosis/Bacterial Overgrowth, Candida overgrowth, Potential Autoimmune Triggers, Intestinal Health Markers, and Leaky Gut/Intestinal Hyperpermeability. Testing kits are shipped directly to patients for collection and then returned to the lab for processing. Click HERE to view a sample report.

  • SIBO Breath Test: Gold standard test for diagnosing Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) which is a condition that results in excessive bloating and gas, especially after meals, as well as other IBS symptoms. This non-invasive SIBO breath test can detect the gases that are produced by the bacteria. Once diagnosed, we can then eliminate the overgrowth with herbal antimicrobials and a specialized diet.

Hormone Testing

  • The Adrenal Stress Index (ASI) test from DiagnosTechs is a non-invasive, comprehensive assessment of adrenal gland function and overall stress response. This saliva-based test measures cortisol and DHEA levels at four key points throughout the day, providing a detailed insight into your body's diurnal rhythm and how it responds to stress. By evaluating the balance of these critical hormones, the ASI test helps identify issues such as adrenal fatigue, chronic stress, and hormonal imbalances that can affect energy levels, sleep quality, immune function, and overall well-being. With this information, you can work on personalized strategies to manage stress, support adrenal health, and restore balance in your life. Click HERE to view a sample report.

  • DUTCH Complete: DUTCH stands for Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones. This advanced hormone testing was developed to improve on available hormone testing options. DUTCH offers the most extensive profile of sex and adrenal hormones along with their metabolites. Additionally, the daily pattern of free cortisol is included, along with melatonin (6-OHMS), 8-OHdG, and six organic acids. This unique combination of clinical information is not available by any other method. This test requires clinician interpretation due to the complexity of the Steroid Pathways.

  • Cycling Female Hormone Panel: Due to the change in hormones throughout the cycle, this is the most comprehensive way to measure hormones in a menstruating female. 11 separate samples are taken throughout the entire monthly cycle in order to gain a better understanding of what may be contributing to your symptoms. Your hormone levels are measured from your saliva, which can be collected easily and painlessly at your convenience. This test is useful in women struggling with infertility, PCOS, painful or heavy periods. Click HERE to view a sample report.

  • Male Hormone Panel: This is a noninvasive saliva test used to evaluate levels of various hormones involved in male reproductive and sexual function. These panels include tests for nine different hormones in order to give a comprehensive picture of male hormonal balance that is valuable when evaluating for conditions related to infertility, sexual dysfunction, and andropause—an age-related decline in male hormone levels.
