Nutritional Consultation
The goal of the initial consultation is for your doctor to gain enough information regarding your health background to determine the proper protocol, testing, and plan to meet your nutritional needs.
Testing Options
Intestinal Permeability ( AKA Leaky Gut) and Food Intolerance Testing - This test requires a blood draw and tests numerous different foods, including common foods and gluten, against your blood to see if those foods activate your immune system and cause harm to your system. Labs used are the Vibrant Wellness, ALCAT test and Cyrex Labs.
Genotype testing - Based on your blood type, certain gene markers (determined via saliva), and numerous body measurements we can determine what foods are beneficial and toxic for your body. This test is very specific to the individual and gives a significant amount of information to change your diet and health.
