Services we offer and conditions we work with:
Fatigue
Fatigue can prevent you from doing the activities you enjoy and limit your ability to perform at work. Fatigue can also be an indicator of something in your body that isn’t working right. The causes of fatigue range from gut issues, infection, toxicity, thyroid function, or adrenal function. Testing kits can identify the cause. Targeted therapeutic protocols can help your body heal and restore your energy.
Gut Health
All cells in the body have thyroid receptors. This explains why thyroid function can have such widespread effects. Thyroid hormones control metabolic rate of all body tissues. Imbalances in these hormones can cause weight gain, fatigue, skin changes, mood changes, and changes in appearance. Thyroid testing can reveal imbalances in thyroid hormone levels, free T3 and T4, reverse T3, and thyroid antibodies.
Nutritional Testing
Comprehensive nutritional assessment testing with Genova’s NutrEval can reveal a massive amount of information that would otherwise mostly go unnoticed for decades or even a lifetime. It tests Vitamin D levels, Omega 3s, Oxidative stress, Genetic SNPs, Amino Acids, Neurotransmitters, Vitamin markers, Detox markers, and Cellular metabolism. This gives you a truly customized health plan for your exact needs.
Gut Health
Gut health test kits check your gut lining and underlying causes of many health problems. A healthy gut is the foundation for a healthy body. The gut affects nearly every other system like your brain, cardiovascular system, immune system, joints, thyroid, and liver. It determines how well you absorb nutrients and vitamins, while keeping food particles and bacteria in your GI system and out of the blood stream. A leaky gut will cause systemic inflammation. Inflammation is the cause of most disease processes.
Neurotransmitter Testing
Neurotransmitters affect how you feel, your emotions, and how your brain works. Of Americans age 18-29, 48% reported symptoms of anxiety or depression. There are a variety of causes. However, physiological causes such as neurotransmitter imbalances, are often overlooked. Neurotransmitter testing kits can measure metabolites in urine samples to detect imbalances. These imbalances can cause anxiety, depression, fatigue, insomnia, or impulsivity. Supporting these pathways can help restore normal function.
Healthy Weight
Currently, 2 out of 3 Americans are now overweight or obese -increasing year after year. Low-fat fads, outdated food pyramids, sugar, carbs, larger servings, processed foods, and sedentary lives are all contributors. Diet and exercise are some obvious solutions. However, most people don’t think of improving glycolytic pathways, glucose metabolism, fat metabolism, mitochondrial health, nutrient deficiencies, or toxins. Going beyond just diet and exercise, we can help restore healthy metabolism and help you reach your goals.
Detox
There are 80,000+ known environmental toxins. Pesticides, phthalates, heavy metals, and plastics are a few examples. Since they’re microscopic, we’re exposed without knowing. At some point, we don’t feel right and don’t know why. Therefore, testing is essential. Symptoms include fatigue, headaches, brain fog, depression, profuse sweating, skin conditions, weight gain, and joint pain. Identifying exposure sources and supporting clearance pathways are vital for recovery.
Diabetes
In the US, 38 million Americans have diabetes and 1 in 3 have insulin resistance. These conditions significantly increase risk of cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, heart attack, stroke, obesity, depression, cancer, infections, arthritis, Alzheimer’s, and lowers life expectancy. This is a health crisis. The good news is that with disciplined and routine healthy lifestyle changes, it is possible to lower blood sugar levels, lower insulin levels, and improve your health.
Hormones
Healthy male and female hormone levels are essential for vitality, motivation, energy, mood, self-confidence, and desire. Insufficient hormone levels can cause weight gain, decreased muscle mass, depression, irritability, insomnia, decreased bone density, and infertility. At home hormone testing kits can reveal imbalances in estrogen, testosterone, and progesterone levels. Correcting these imbalances can improve your health and help you get back to feeling your best.
Symptoms and Conditions:
Below are examples of the services we offer and the symptoms we work with. We are not claiming to treat or cure any disease. By supporting a healthy lifestyle and removing sources of stressors and inflammation, your body may have its best opportunity to heal from these symptoms and conditions. However, that depends on the cause and keep in mind that serious conditions can present with some of the same symptoms. Therefore, we first recommend evaluation by a medical doctor. You do not want to miss a potentially serious situation. With that said, do not give up on finding what is causing the problem or be discouraged from seeking an answer if you have an ongoing chronic health issue. The allopathic model of treating disease, complemented by a holistic approach of supporting your health is often an approach that will minimize risk and also set you up for your best chance for success.
