Metabolic Conditions
Despite various treatments, do you still suffer from:
* Fatigue
* Lack of Mental Clarity
* Weight Gain
* Hair Loss
* Osteopenia
* Constipation
* Low Libido
* Cold Hands and Feet
* Depression
* Insomnia
* Anemia
* Cholesterol High or Low
* Blood Sugar High or Low
* Heart Palpitations, or other symptoms?
Metabolic Management Based on Specific Lab Panels
By using specific blood tests such as:
#1: A thyroid panel
Thyroid Interactions include:
* Brain
* Gastrointestinal Tract
* Gallbladder Function
* Liver Function
* Lipid and Cholesterol Metabolism
* Protein Metabolism
* Red Blood Cell Metabolism
* Glucose Metabolism
* Hormone Steroidogenesis
* Bone Metabolism
* Cardiovascular System
#2: A complete metabolic panel (CMP)
#3: A lipid panel
#4: A CBC (complete blood count with auto differential)
#5: 25-Hydroxy and 1,25-Hydroxy (These test are used to check Vitamin D Metabolism)
We can assess your thyroid, adrenal, blood, and gut function. All can
be affected with chronic health conditions. By addressing any
problems with your thyroid, adrenal glands, blood chemistry, or gut
function, we can help you to heal faster. The CMP allows us to check
your blood glucose levels since glucose and oxygen are needed by the
brain to function properly.
Sensitivity Testing: to determine if you have a sensitivity to gluten (wheat, rye, oats, and barley), milk, eggs, yeast, and soy. If you are sensitive to ANY of these food groups, it could be making your condition worse as it will increase inflammation in your brain and throughout your body!
Urinalysis (UA): to check for possible kidney problems and other conditions.
Adrenal Stress Index (ASI): We can further test your adrenal glands
with a test called an Adrenal Stress Index. Your adrenal glands are
your “stress” organs meaning that they react to stress. If you have
been or are currently under stress, this test is a must!
Immune Panels—EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!: We may test to see if you have an autoimmune disease. An autoimmune disease is where your immune system attacks a particular area of the body. Your immune system could be attacking your brain and nervous system. So we test for specific antibodies to determine if you suffer from an autoimmune condition that would be making your condition worse. This is why the immune panels are so important.
Tissue Antibodies: We can check for gluten antibodies, tissue
antibodies such as myelin (fatty sheath around the nerves) antibodies,
cerebellar (back part of the brain controlling balance, coordinated
movement, and spinal muscles) antibodies.
H.Pylori: We can run a test for H. Pylori bacteria to determine any
problems related to the gut function.
Neurotransmitters: We check for decreased brain neurotransmitters.
Neurotransmitters are vital for proper brain function.
Hormone Panels: We can check hormone panels to determine if the
patient suffers from low testosterone in males or low
estrogen/progesterone levels in females. Symptoms related to decreased
hormone levels may include depression, fatigue, mental fogginess, mood
swings, hot flashes, sweating attacks, weight gain, and decreased
physical stamina.
Inflamation: Finally, we may need to test for inflammation in your
system by testing homocysteine levels and C-Reactive Protein (C-RP).
Many patients suffering from chronic health conditions suffer from
inflammatory processes.
High Risk for Cardiovascular Disease: By checking your lipid metabolism, inflammation, active underlying infections, homocysteine levels, hormone levels, and Oxidized LDL, I will be able to predict very accurately ones risk for CAD (coronary artery disease).
Once we have run the necessary tests to determine your specific
condition, we can successfully care for you via proper all natural metabolic protocols.
