Testing
Comprehensive nutritional testing
Nutreval
Nutreval
The Nutreval is both a blood and urine test. It is nutritional status assessment, as it is one of the very best comprehensive nutritional profiles available globally, providing you with highly personalised recommendations for amino acids (proteins), fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, digestive support, and numerous other macro and micronutrients. NutrEval will also measure toxic exposure, how efficiently your body produces energy and your oxidative stress, which can damage cells.
Common clinical indications for testing include:
- Mood disorders
- Cardiovascular disease
- Obesity/ Insulin resistance/ Type 2 Diabetes
- Fatigue
- Weight Issues/ Dietary Guidance
- Malnutrition (often observed in the elderly)
- Maldigestion/Malabsorption
- Athletic performance
- Physical trauma/healing
GI Effects Comprehensive Stool Profile
GI Effects Comprehensive Stool Profile
This is an advanced stool test that provides immediate, actionable clinical information for the management of gastrointestinal health. Utilising cutting-edge technologies and biomarkers, this test offers valuable insight into digestive function, intestinal inflammation, and the intestinal micro-biome.
The GI Effects Stool Profiles can reveal important information about the root cause of many common gastrointestinal symptoms and non-GI conditions including:
- Gas
- Bloating
- Indigestion/ reflux
- Abdominal pain/ cramps
- Diarrhea
- Constipation
- Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
- Atopic dermatitis/ eczema
- Allergies
- Autoimmune diseases
- Mood disorders (depression)
- Joint aches
- Diabetes
- Weight issues
Adrenal Stress Index
Adrenal Stress Profile
A Comprehensive Tool to Assess the HPA Axis – Stress Response and Resiliency.
This provides an assessment of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis using carefully timed salivary samples of the hormones cortisol and DHEA. Salivary testing is an easy, non-invasive option to measure unbound, biologically active parent hormone levels.
Daily hassles, chronic pain, blood sugar dysregulation, work stressors, and poor relationship quality can alter the HPA axis. Imbalances in adrenal hormones can have a wide range of negative consequences that can adversely impact a patient’s overall quality of life.
HPA axis dysfunction is associated with many conditions including but not limited to:
- Hypertension
- Cardiovascular disease
- Gastrointestinal and immune dysregulation
- Diabetes and metabolic syndrome
- Depression
- Chronic fatigue
- Insomnia
- Weight gain
- Persistent pain
- Neurodegenerative disease and cognitive decline
Dutch Hormone Test
Dutch Hormone Test
DUTCH Complete provides a comprehensive assessment of 35 different sex and adrenal hormones, including oestrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA and cortisol along with their metabolites. It also measures daily free cortisol and cortisone patterns, the oxidative stress marker 8-OHdG, melatonin and nine organic acids including markers for vitamin B12 (methylmalonate), vitamin B6 (kynurenate and xanthurenate), biotin (β-hydroxyisovalerate), glutathione (pyroglutamate), dopamine (homovanillate), norepinephrine/epinephrine (vanilmandelate), neuroinflammation (quinolinate) and tryptophan putrefaction (indican).
DUTCH Complete can help identify the root causes of sex hormone and adrenal imbalances in both women and men. It can provide insights into conditions such as:
- Premenstrual syndrome
- PMDD
- PCOS
- Menopause
- Infertility
- Weight gain
- Fatigue
- Low libido
- Sleep issues
- Mood disorders
- Monitoring of hormone replacement therapy.
