Nutrients
This ratio helps assess inflammation and the management of heart disease and other chronic/inflammatory processes.
Copper is a trace mineral vital for iron metabolism, connective tissue formation, and brain function. Testing can reveal deficiencies or excesses that may affect energy, immunity, and neurological health. *This add-on test is available for an additional cost and is not included in the $499 membership.
Ferritin levels can help diagnose iron deficiency, liver disease, inflammation, or insulin resistance. Ferritin is a protein that stores iron in cells and then releases the iron when the body makes more red blood cells.
A homocysteine test checks the body’s vitamin B levels and methylation function, a key biochemical process essential for almost all of the body’s systems. Abnormal homocysteine can build up and increase the risk of blood clots, dementia, osteoporosis, heart disease, heart attack, and stroke. Homocysteine is an amino acid that helps organs grow and regenerate.
Iodine is a key element required for thyroid hormone production, which regulates metabolism and energy. Testing helps identify deficiencies that may lead to thyroid dysfunction or metabolic imbalances. *This add-on test is available for an additional cost and is not included in the $499 membership.
Healthy iron levels create vitality throughout the entire body. Iron helps various vital functions, like providing energy and focus, building a strong gastrointestinal tract and immune system, and regulating body temperature. Iron deficiency can lead to numerous biological problems, including anemia.
TIBC assesses the body’s ability to transport iron in the blood, and can diagnose and/or monitor iron-deficiency or iron overload. Lower than normal levels of TIBC could indicate too much iron and a variety of conditions, including anemias, inflammation, or liver disease.
The Iron % Saturation test measures the percentage of transferrin, a protein that transports iron in the blood, that is saturated with iron. This test is crucial for assessing iron status in the body and can help diagnose conditions such as iron deficiency anemia or iron overload disorders like hemochromatosis.
Magnesium is a mineral imperative for cells to make energy, for chemical pumps to work and stabilize membranes, and to help muscles relax. Low magnesium can impact calcium, potassium, phosphorus, and/or parathyroid hormone. This test helps evaluate absorption and helps determine whether or not there’s a problem with kidney function or the gastrointestinal tract.
MMA measures vitamin B12 and can detect a deficiency even when mild or just beginning. MMA is a key component for metabolism and energy, and because blood and/or urine levels of MMA rise when B12 levels drop, it is a more sensitive biomarker than testing just B12 levels.
Measures the amount of DHA, DPA, and EPA, omega-3 essentials for brain function and development.
Omega-3 fatty acids, including EPA and DHA, are essential for reducing inflammation, supporting heart health, and promoting brain function. This test is important because adequate omega-3 levels are associated with a lower risk of heart disease, better inflammatory response, and improved mental health.
Measures this pro-inflammatory omega-6 fatty acid, which can increase the risk of inflammatory diseases and mood disorders if chronically elevated.
Linoleic acid is a key omega-6 fatty acid essential for cell membrane structure and function and is a precursor to arachidonic acid, which plays a significant role in the body's inflammatory processes. Elevated levels of linoleic acid can indicate excessive dietary intake, which may contribute to chronic inflammation and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.
While omega-6 is typically higher than omega-3, ensuring that this ratio remains low is important.
Imbalanced omega-3 and omega-6 levels are a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, age-related macular degeneration, rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, and more. Omegas are essential fatty acids (EFAs), which are the building blocks for every cell in the body. Well-balanced omegas can contribute to optimal brain performance, mental health, nerve function, a healthy heart, circulation, immune system, gastrointestinal tract, skin, hair, and nails.
Selenium is a powerful antioxidant that supports thyroid function, immune health, and cellular protection from oxidative stress. *This add-on test is available for an additional cost and is not included in the $499 membership.
Vitamin D deficiency is widely underdiagnosed and undertreated. Over time, low levels can lead to hypothyroidism, osteoporosis, cancer, heart disease, fatigue, depression, seasonal affective disorder (SAD), gut issues, and fibromyalgia. The role of vitamin D is vast and benefits the immune system, thyroid, bones and teeth, muscles, and brain.
Zinc is mostly known for its immune support, but it's actually a powerful mineral across all systems of the body: from strengthening bones and muscles, preventing blood clotting and metal accumulation, promoting proper insulin and thyroid function, and so much more. If deficient, it can impact mood, sexual function, and immunity.
Chromium is a trace mineral that enhances insulin action, which helps regulate blood sugar levels and supports metabolism. Testing identifies deficiencies that may affect glucose control and energy balance.
Coenzyme Q10 is a vital antioxidant that supports cellular energy production and protects cells from oxidative stress. Testing levels can provide insights into heart health, mitochondrial function, and energy metabolism.
Folate (vitamin B9) is essential for DNA synthesis, red blood cell production, and preventing neural tube birth defects. Testing helps identify deficiencies that may impact energy, mood, or cardiovascular health.
Molybdenum is a trace mineral involved in key enzymatic reactions that detoxify harmful substances in the body. Testing helps evaluate its role in liver health and metabolic function.
Vitamin A is important for vision, immune function, and skin health. Testing helps identify deficiencies or excess levels that can impact eye health and immunity.
Vitamin B12 is integral for nerve function, DNA synthesis, and red blood cell formation. Testing helps identify deficiencies linked to fatigue, neurological symptoms, and anemia.
Alpha tocopherol is the most active form of vitamin E, a fat-soluble antioxidant that protects cells from damage and supports immune health. Testing ensures adequate levels to maintain cellular integrity and prevent oxidative stress.
This test analyzes genetic variations in the MTHFR (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase) gene, which plays an important role in processing folate (vitamin B9) and regulating homocysteine, a substance linked to heart and brain health. Variants in this gene can affect cardiovascular health, energy production, reproduction, and neurological function. *This add-on test is available for an additional cost and is not included in the $499 membership.
Calcium levels help understand symptoms related to the kidneys, bones, thyroid, parathyroid, or nerves. Calcium is a mineral the body uses to build and maintain strong bones, teeth, muscle control, and blood circulation.
These forms of vitamin E play unique roles in reducing inflammation and protecting cells from oxidative damage. Testing offers a more complete view of vitamin E status.*This add-on test is available for an additional cost and is not included in the $499 membership.
