FUNCTIONAL TESTING

FUNCTIONAL TESTS

 

I use the most respected functional laboratories for testing in order to help my clients get to the root cause of their symptoms. Functional testing is a great tool to use alongside the nutrition or naturopathy consultation as it helps gather more evidence towards your health related symptoms that you are experiencing. The laboratories I use are based in the UK, Europe and USA, including, Invivo Diagnostics, The Doctors Laboratory, Genova Diagnostics, Regenerus Laboratories,

Precision Analytical, Glycanage and Lifecode Gx.

​

Areas that functional testing can be supportive are:

​​

  • Digestive function

  • Methylation 

  • Biological Age

  • Nutritional and biochemical imbalances

  • Microbiome imbalances (Gut, Vaginal)

  • Candida albicans overgrowth (thrush)​

  • H. Pylori overgrowth

  • Hormone imbalances, e.g. thyroid, adrenals (cortisol, cortisone, adrenaline, noradrenaline), sex hormones (oestrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, DHT)

  • Neurotransmitter imbalances

  • Heavy metal excesses (mercury, arsenic, copper) due to environmental or occupational pollutants

  • DNA (Genetics) Lifecode Gx Genetics Testing 

  • Nutrigenomics â€‹â€‹

​

Functional tests are not compulsory, however, with my knowledge and expertise I will suggest tests that I think may reveal supportive information about a clients health to then narrow down even further on the protocol to take.

​

These functional tests can only be ordered by a registered practitioner and are not available through the NHS as they provide a more in-depth report, which is not covered by NHS funding.

​

​To order a functional test please email me on  info@nutritiouslynatural.com

If you would like more assistance with which test is right for your needs then book a nutrition or naturopathy consultation on the (book online) tab and then I can investigate your health concerns and suggest an appropriate test.
