Assessing Your Health
PRECISION LABORATORY TESTING
Using precision laboratory assessment is transformative in preventing and managing chronic health imbalances.
We collaborate with high quality laboratories to gain key insights into your specific health status by assessing a wide range of biological markers, such as vitamin levels, and hormones - indicators of crucial biochemical functions, helping to pinpoint nutritional or metabolic imbalances and deficiencies.
For instance, testing might reveal a deficiency in essential fatty acids or high levels of inflammation that could predispose an individual to cholesterol imbalances which is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. This biochemical information enables us to design precise, evidence-based interventions to influence disease and pre-disease mechanisms.
Personalized nutrition utilizes these sophisticated testing methods to address a broad spectrum of health issues from nutrient deficiencies to toxicity and oxidative stress, as well as gut health and food sensitivities.
For instance, cutting-edge genomic and metabolomic testing of the gut microbiota provides insights into microbial species that influence metabolic and immune functions, aiding in the formulation of targeted therapeutic strategies such as specialized probiotics. Additionally, genetic testing can identify variations in genes which influence how the body processes cholesterol.
This information allows practitioners to develop nutrition plans that specifically address these risks. By combining genetic insights with metabolic biomarkers, we are able to design truly personalised plans that address specifically to the individual's needs and proactively avoid health risks, setting the foundations for long-term health and disease prevention.
