Request Your Comprehensive Assessment Today
A well-known phrase used in the integrative medicine space is: Without testing, you’re just guessing. As a practicing nutritionist and functional medicine practitioner serving Washington, DC, Virginia, and Maryland, I am pleased to offer diagnostic testing to help you make objective decisions about your nutritional and medical needs.
These tests might include a look at your nutrient levels at the cellular level, the composition of your gut flora, antioxidant levels, and hormone metabolites. An accurate diagnosis requires a nutrition-focused physical exam, a careful medical and family history, laboratory evaluations, along with my clinical assessment.
Based on that assessment, I’ll determine which of the various laboratory testing options available through Bridge Integrative Health & Nutrition, LLC is right for you, which include the following:
- Food Allergy (i.e., Celiac Disease screening, IgA and IgG antibodies) – A comprehensive panel measuring 4 distinct immune reactions, IgE, IgG, IgG4 and complement (C3b/d), to common food antigens: seafood (cod, shrimp, blue mussel, tuna, and salmon), nuts (peanuts, hazelnuts, Brazil nuts, almonds, and coconuts), grains (wheat, oat, corn, sesame, and buckwheat), and common pediatric allergens (egg white, milk, codfish, wheat, peanut, and soybeans).
- Complete Blood Count – Analyzes blood cells to evaluate a patient’s overall health and to screen for a variety of diseases and conditions.
- Comprehensive Digestive Stool Analysis – Helps pinpoint the causes of gastrointestinal symptoms and chronic systemic conditions, and measures key markers of digestion, absorption and inflammation. It contains comprehensive bacteriology and yeast cultures to identify the presence of beneficial flora, imbalanced flora, and dysbiotic flora. It also includes the detection of infectious pathogens and antimicrobial susceptibility testing to prescriptive and natural agents for appropriate cultured bacterial and fungal species.
- Organic Acids Urinary Testing – The Organic Acids Test (OAT) provides a comprehensive metabolic analysis of a patient’s overall health, including intestinal yeast and bacteria, vitamin and mineral levels, oxidative stress, neurotransmitter levels, and oxalates.
