THE 5 STONES

"Then he took his staff in his hand, and chose five smooth stones from the brook, and put them in his shepherd's bag or wallet; his sling was in his hand, and he drew near to the Philistine."
1 Samuel 17:40

There are 5 major Functional Medicine Labs that I use to help determine underlying health challenges. These tests are crucial to finding the true answers.

FOOD SENSITIVITY TEST

This easy, finger prick, blood spot lab tests 190 common foods for IgG reactions. Finding hidden and delayed reactions from foods that may seem perfectly "healthy" is a vital part of finding which foods are healthy for YOUR body.

CANDIDA, METABOLIC AND VITAMIN TEST

This test is a urine based test that accurately evaluates intestinal yeast and bacteria. This test looks for over 75 biomarkers to determine deficiencies in vitamins, energy mitochondria producers, neurotransmitter metabolites, and detoxifiers. This test sheds a lot of light on a lot of health issues.

MINERALS AND METALS TEST

This hair test gives so much information about what is going on with the hormonal system, adrenals, thyroid function and more. It also tells us if we have heavy metal toxicity issues that lead to so many debilitating health problems.

STRESS, MOOD AND METABOLISM TEST

This saliva/blood hormone test often uncovers many hormone imbalances that create serious health problems. Whether it be simple weight management or depleted energy, this test will help provide solutions to underlying problems.

OMEGA 3 INFLAMMATION TEST

This simple blood spot test tells us about our Omega profile. Many people take Omega 3 supplements but should they? Is it enough? Poor Omega profiles have many health concerns including cardiovascular disease, joint pain and much more.
