The gold standard to female hormone testing is through a saliva hormone test, not a blood test. Hormone blood tests ordered through your GP show hormone levels only within the blood, not levels within the whole body. This means we can’t tell how much hormone is bioavailable to the body, and its effect at a tissue and cellular level. So basically your hormone levels can look perfect on a blood test, but you’re still suffering from hormonal symptoms. A Comprehensive Saliva Female Hormone Test provides an accurate look at each hormone level and its impact at a cellular level. CSFHT tests for oestrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and ratio levels to each other. It also tests the three types of oestrogen, E1, E2 & E3. To get the full picture, examining the three types of oestrogen is vital because each oestrogen plays a different role and required at different life stages.  Another great option with CSFHT is it can be tailored to your individual requirements. For example, if you don’t have a regular cycle, hormone testing completed once in the cycle will give limited results. CSFHT can be done at different times of the month and show hormone level changes within the month. Unlike blood tests, saliva testing isn’t invasive, doesn’t require any needles, is entirely painless and done in the comfort and privacy of your own home.

Hair metal and mineral analysis measures nutrient and toxic metal content of hair. As hair is directly made up of substances that enter the blood stream, hair makes the ideal medium for analysis.

A wide range of heavy metals and minerals can be measured in one hair sample to provide status of cellular activity and nutrient metabolism. Every physiological function in the body is catalysed by minerals, therefore making them essential for health.

Heavy metal toxicity is becoming a bigger problem today due the amount of heavy metals we are exposure to within our food, products we apply to our skin and pollution in the air. Heavy metal toxicity has been associated with significant developmental and neurological damage.

The comprehensive gut analysis profile is recommended for gut related symptoms for such as IBS, indigestion, dysbiosis (microbial imbalance), constipation, and diarrhoea. It is used to detect digestive dysfunction and absorption markers, yeast overgrowth, bacteria imbalance, parasite and worm infections.

Let your hair unlock the secrets to a healthier, happier you. Food compatible hair analysis tests 500 common food and household chemical items. This test is great for anyone suffering from chronic skin conditions such as acne, eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis . This test is particularly great for kids as there is no injections or blood samples required, only a small piece of hair is needed.

Food intolerances are very common. It’s estimated 45% of the population suffers from at least one or more food intolerance.

 

The immune system sees a food intolerance as a foreign substance or threat to the body and attacks it with antibodies. Immune antibodies cause inflammation and damage to the gut barrier lining. Once the gut barrier lining becomes damaged this is then called leaky gut syndrome or the medical term “intestinal hyper-permeability”. Once the gut barrier is damaged many unpleasant symptoms can occur. Leak gut syndrome can cause respiratory symptoms such as asthma or sinusitis, musculoskeletal symptoms such as arthritis and fibromyalgia. Gastrointestinal symptoms such as IBS, bloating, nausea, reflux. The central nervous system can be affected and cause migraine/headaches, impaired concentration, mood, and behavioural changes, anxiety, and depression. Skin problems such as eczema and dermatitis can also be a sign of leaky gut syndrome cause from a food intolerance.

To prevent the immune system from causing damage to the gut lining, all food intolerances must be removed from the diet to allow the gut to repair. A quick and convenient way to find out what foods are causing damage to the gut is through an IgG Food Intolerance Test.

World Class, ELISA IgG Food Intolerance Test can be arranged as part of a consultation and results are available one hour after the sample is taken. This means you’re not waiting weeks for the results to come back and can start to make changes today to feel better sooner.
