Intolerances differ significantly from allergies. Unlike allergies, intolerances may vary from situation to situation, while an allergy always produces the same reaction.  Intolerances are caused by the body’s inability to process specific substances and may cause bloating, digestive problems such as gas and/or diarrhea, fatigue, headaches and even the inability to lose weight or weight gain.

Symptoms may be difficult to link to specific foods, environmental substances or food additives because they may not occur until hours or days later.  To complicate the situation, each individual has a different tolerance for specific foods, so even if a person has an intolerance, it may be mild so that a small amount of the food doesn’t cause a reaction until enough of the food is eaten or is consumed consistently over time.

Our Alzheimer’s Blood Test is a simple screen for adults age 50+ that looks at 5 biomarkers linked to changes in the brain associated with Alzheimer’s disease.  The test analyzes proteins associated with the formation of amyloid plaques in the brain, including p-tau217, along with markers of cellular injury and inflammation, which work together to provide a clearer picture than a single marker alone.  The test results provide an amyloid risk score (0-100) and categorization of low, intermediate, or high likelihood of amyloid plaques. 

This test is not a diagnosis and is not intended for healthy individuals with no symptoms of cognitive decline. It is a tool to gauge Alzheimer’s‑related risk that should be evaluated by a clinician in the context of your symptoms and medical history. Results are designed to help you and your care team decide on appropriate next steps, which may include additional tests or imaging. To support you, every test includes a coaching session with a board‑certified neurologist who will review your results, explain what they mean, and outline practical next steps. Our goal is to give you clear, compassionate information so you can plan with confidence. 

Note:

LucentAD® Complete blood test is provided by Lucent Diagnostics.  This test is not a standalone diagnostic tool and does not by itself confirm or rule out Alzheimer’s Disease. Please review your results with your doctor, who can place them in the full context of your medical history and other evaluations. 

Individual assay values are for informational purposes only. Individual markers are not to be used for diagnostic purposes.These markers are combined in an algorithm to give a single score to indicate whether amyloid plaque is the cause of memory loss.

AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone) is a hormone that measures your ovarian reserve, or the number of eggs you have. This test is often used in conjunction with other tests to assess fertility. AMH testing can also be used to help diagnose PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome), predict the onset of menopause, and monitor patients with certain types of ovarian cancer.

The Anemia Panel is a comprehensive panel that includes a CBC, Ferritin, Folates, Total Iron Binding Capacity with Iron, Reticulocyte Count, Vitamin B12 and Folic Acid.

A CBC (Complete Blood Count) looks at important parameters of your blood including hemoglobin level, white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets.  The Ferritin, Iron and Total Iron Binding Capacity tests work together to indicate if you have an iron deficiency, which is the most common form of anemia. The Reticulocyte  Count  can  help  determine  if  you  are  producing  enough  red  blood  cells  and  can  help determine the cause of different types of anemia. Finally, this panel will determine any Vitamin B12 and Folic Acid deficiency, often the reason for the onset of anemia.

Routine lab testing is a great way to monitor your health. It is also a good way to establish a baseline; by knowing your baseline levels, you can begin to monitor these values to see how they change over time.

If you are ready to take control of your health but you are not sure where to start, the Annual Check-Up Panel can provide valuable information. This panel consists of 5 tests that are typically ordered by a healthcare provider during an annual physical examination. These tests provide information about your blood counts, kidney function, liver function, electrolytes, cholesterol, triglycerides, hemoglobin A1c, and thyroid function. 

Routine lab testing is a great way to monitor your health.  It is also a good way to establish a starting point for yourself.  By knowing your initial levels, you can begin to monitor these values to see how they change over time.

If you are ready to take control of your health, the Annual Check-Up Panel Plus can provide valuable, in-depth information.  This panel consists of 10 tests that may be ordered by a healthcare provider during an annual physical examination.  You’ll receive all the information provided with our standard Annual Check-Up Panel (blood counts, liver function, kidney function, electrolytes, cholesterol, and triglycerides) PLUS additional insight into your thyroid health, your risk for diabetes, and your vitamin B12 levels.

This test is a great way to collaborate with your healthcare provider to make informed decisions that allow you to stay ahead of potential health concerns.

The Antinuclear Antibodies (ANA) test looks for antinuclear antibodies in your blood. It is often used to detect autoimmune disorders.

The ANA test looks for antinuclear antibodies in your blood. This test can be used to screen for autoimmune disorders; if you want to know if you have a specific autoimmune disorder, that may require additional testing. Symptoms of autoimmune disorders can vary; this includes symptoms such as fever, fatigue, swelling, joint and muscle pain, rashes, and more. If you suspect that you have an autoimmune disorder, the ANA test can be a good starting point. 

Arthritis is an inflammatory disorder that affects one or more joints. There are several different conditions that can affect the joints and other connective tissues. These include osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, SLE (systemic lupus erythematosus), and more. If you are concerned about rheumatoid arthritis, other autoimmune diseases, or other inflammatory conditions, this panel can be a good starting point. 

The Arthritis Screening Panel includes Rheumatoid Factor, Antinuclear Antibodies, and C‐Reactive Protein (High Sensitivity). It also includes a Complete Blood Count (CBC) and a Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP), which are often ordered in an annual physical examination and can be used to monitor a variety of conditions. 

The Nutritional Panel includes a variety of tests that can help you determine if you are getting enough nutrition.   This panel can also help rule out adrenal gland disorders and malnutrition.   It is commonly ordered by doctors before surgery or for patients who are hospitalized or chronically ill.

The Nutritional Panel also includes a CBC, which measures important parameters of the cellular makeup of your blood that can  reveal anemia, signs of infection or other factors that may cause fatigue; a CMP, which analyzes electrolytes, sugar, proteins, and enzymes including sodium, potassium, calcium, glucose and liver/kidney function tests; and an Iron and Total Iron Binding Capacity – which measures the amount of iron in your blood.

The Saliva Hormone Test is the best non-invasive method for discovering any type of hormone imbalance in either males or females.  Hormone imbalance can occur at any age and can be due to a multitude of reasons.

The ovaries produce many of the hormones in females, which also communicate with the brain to either increase or decrease the release of various other hormones.  The imbalance within the body can lead to symptoms experienced during a short period of time or for many years.

In men, the testes produce mainly 95% of all testosterone, which is balanced by the adrenal gland.  The brain also regulates the increase or decrease of hormones released within the body.  The irregularity of testosterone within the body may contribute to decreased bone density, decreased muscle strength and decreased libido.

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are also known as sexually transmitted infections (STI). This refers to a group of infections that can be spread from one person to another through sexual contact. Treatment of STDs depends on the type of infection. HIV, Herpes, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and HPV are caused by viruses. Chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis are bacterial infections, and trichomoniasis is a parasitic infection.

STDs are common, and it is possible to have an STD and not realize it. Symptoms of STDs can vary- some people might experience significant symptoms, and others might not have any symptoms at all. Even if people do not feel any symptoms, they can still spread STDs. This is why STD testing is so important.

Early detection is essential for STD treatment. If you think you may have been exposed to an STD, or if you simply want to get tested, then the Basic STD Panel could be a good option for you. This panel looks for HIV, syphilis, herpes (HSV1 & HSV 2), gonorrhea, and chlamydia. If you are interested in testing for additional STDs, you should consider the Comprehensive STD Panel, the Comprehensive STD Plus Panel, or the Comprehensive STD Premium Panel.

Please note that for gonorrhea and/or chlamydia testing, it is recommended that customers not urinate within one hour prior to providing a specimen.  Females also should not cleanse the genital area prior to providing a specimen.

THESE 3 TESTS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS PANEL:

1. Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)
2. T3 Free
3. T4 Free

WHAT DOES THE THYROID GLAND DO?

The thyroid gland is responsible for regulating how your body uses energy through the production of hormones critical to proper cell and system functioning.

There are three main hormones in the thyroid system that should be balanced:

1. TSH: Thyroid Stimulating Hormone is the most important of the hormones in the thyroid system, this stimulates or acts on the thyroid gland, telling it how much of the actual thyroid hormones need to be made.
2. T3 Free: Free T3 measures the amount of active thyroid hormone (T3) available for your body to use. T3 helps control how your body uses energy, including your metabolism and how many organs function.
3. T4 Free: Free T4 measures the amount of thyroid hormone (T4) available in your blood. T4 is mostly a “storage” form that your body converts into the active hormone T3 and helps support normal metabolism.

A thyroid hormone panel screens for thyroid function and can help diagnose potential thyroid disease by examining your body’s production, levels, or usage of the different thyroid hormones.  There are two types of thyroid and thyroid hormone-related disorders:

1. Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) – symptoms may include fatigue, weight gain, a short attention span, and numbness or cold intolerance.
2. Hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) – symptoms may include weight loss, persistent vomiting, increased blood pressure, hair loss, or a persistently fast heart rate.

WHY DO I NEED THIS TEST?

If there is a thyroid level imbalance in your body, you may be more susceptible to everything from osteoporosis and heart disease to infertility and fatigue.

Thyroid disorders are more common in women and they often occur with changes in other hormone levels, such as with pregnancy or with older age.

The Blood Typing and RH Factor Test determines your blood type [either A, B, AB, and O] and Rh factor [negative or positive].  Did you know there are several benefits in knowing both?

Blood type is determined by the types of antigens (or markers) on your blood cells.  Antigens are proteins on the surface of your blood cells that can cause a response from the immune system – which is good in fighting disease.

The Rh factor is a type of protein on the surface of red blood cells.  Red blood cells that contain protein are called Rh‐positive and the red blood cells that don’t are Rh‐negative. If you have Rh‐negative blood, it can be given to anyone because it can’t be identified as foreign in other people’s bodies (because it doesn’t have an antigen.)

The Breast Cancer Monitoring Panel can help your physician monitor breast cancer treatment and therapy.

Both the CA 15‐3 and CA 27.29 are proteins that are normally produced by breast cells. In persons with breast cancer, the levels can increase. The protein amounts can rise with breast cancer tumor growth and fall with treatment.

The carcinoembryonic antigen is a protein that may be present in people with cancer, including breast cancer.   The CEA Test measures the amount of this protein in your blood. CEA is normally detected in healthy adults, but at a certain range (see below Normal Range).

These three tests can also help your physician offer a more accurate prognosis (or prediction of your health).

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder characterized by an inappropriate immune response to gluten, a protein found in wheat, and related dietary protein barley and rye. Celiac disease antibody tests help diagnose and monitor the disease. The antibodies being tested are IgA and Tissue Tranglutaminase (tTG) antibody (IgA).

One in every 133 Americans suffers from celiac disease totaling 3 million Americans.  85% of these people have not been diagnosed so they either struggle along trying to figure out what foods to avoid on their own and suffer from painful and sometimes, debilitating symptoms of celiac disease.  Several millions more suffer from gluten intolerance, which can be very painful and can get worse over time.  Intolerances differ significantly from allergies. Unlike allergies, intolerances may vary from situation to situation, while an allergy always produces the same reaction.

True celiac disease, unlike gluten intolerance, is genetically based and carried from parents or grandparents to their children.  If gluten is ingested the villi in the small intestine are damaged over time reducing the villi’s ability to absorb needed nutrients from food and increasing abdominal discomfort.  Functional gastrointestinal disorders affect 2 in every 5 Americans and include Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Celiac Disease, Functional Dyspepsia (indigestion), Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn’s Disease.  The CICA test can help to determine if you have Celiac Disease or some other gastrointestinal disorder so that you can properly treat your symptoms.

The Micronutrient Test is designed to provide a deeper understanding of your long-term, functional nutrient status that goes beyond a standard blood test.  Rather than measuring the nutrient levels in your bloodstream, the test evaluates whether enough nutrients are actually entering your cells so they can function optimally.  This approach may uncover subtle deficiencies that exist in spite of a healthy diet and normal results on basic lab tests.  

A Micronutrient Test may be particularly useful if you are experiencing symptoms like chronic fatigue or frequent illness despite normal serum nutrient levels.  This test may also be the right choice to help you optimize your nutritional status as part of an overall fitness routine or weight loss plan.  The results can help you to focus your diet and supplement regimen on the nutrients your cells need most.

The  Lipids  Panel  can  determine  if  you  have  abnormal  cholesterol  or  triglyceride  levels.  These  are important because they can also help you and your doctor determine if you’re at risk for heart disease or other coronary (heart) illnesses.

Cholesterol is fat that is produced by the liver. It can also be obtained from foods like cheeseburgers, pizza, etc. There are two kinds of cholesterol – the good and the bad.

1. High Density Lipoproteins (HDL) = Good cholesterol.
2. Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL) = Bad cholesterol.

Lipoprotein (a), also called LPa, has been identified as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and stroke.  The level of LPa in the blood is inherited and numerous studies have shown that it is a significant predictor of cardiovascular disease that is not related to other risk factors.  LPa transports LDL (“bad cholesterol”) through the blood and may directly contribute to arterial degeneration and cholesterol and plaque deposits in the arteries that obstruct the blood flow by increasing plaque size and increasing inflammation.  It is believed that LPa prevents clots from being broken down normally and promotes the uptake of LDL into blood vessel walls.

Some studies suggest that consuming fish or taking fish oil supplements or the regular consumption of moderate amounts of alcohol may reduce LPa levels.  Other exercise or diet regimens typically recommended for cholesterol reduction are usually not effective in reducing LPa.

Cholesterol is a waxy substance produced by the liver; it can also be obtained from the foods you eat, like meat, dairy products, etc. High cholesterol is also known as “hyperlipidemia”. Having high cholesterol can increase your risk of stroke and heart disease. 

High cholesterol can be managed with lifestyle changes and medications. Sometimes, the medications used to treat high cholesterol can cause liver issues. Although this is not a common side effect, healthcare providers may still want to monitor liver function in their patients who take cholesterol medication.

The Cholesterol Medication Maintenance Panel is ideal for someone who is taking cholesterol medication, or for someone who needs to have their cholesterol and liver function checked on a routine basis.

A CBC is a great test to take to give you a “snapshot” of your health.  This test gives important information about the kind and the number of cells in your blood. Physicians use this information to evaluate symptoms, help diagnose conditions and treat certain illnesses (like infections).

Your hormones are your body’s messaging system.  They carry messages that give instructions to your organs and tissues to keep your body functioning properly.  Hormones regulate biological processes like metabolism, blood pressure balance, stress response, sexual function, and reproduction.  They also play an important role in your sleep cycle and mood balance.  

Throughout your life, your hormone balance will naturally change. Sometimes, these changes can impact your overall health and lead to unpleasant symptoms like unintentional weight gain or loss, fatigue, brain fog, mood disturbances, changes in your sleep quality, and changes in your sex drive.  Your fertility can also be affected.  

If you are experiencing any issues like these, the Complete Hormone Health Panel is a great tool to help you find the root cause of your symptoms.  By targeting adrenal, pituitary, and thyroid function, this panel gives you a complete picture of your overall hormone balance as it relates to mental health, metabolic health, and sexual and reproductive function.

Even if you are feeling well, routine lab testing is an important part of maintaining your health. If you are looking for a general overview of your health but you are not sure where to start, the Comprehensive Female Wellness Panel could be a good option for you. It consists of 11 tests that provide valuable information about your blood counts, kidney and liver function, electrolytes, cholesterol, hemoglobin A1c, thyroid function, and hormone levels. This panel is ideal for women of all ages who want to take control of their health. 

The Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP) is a blood test that provides valuable information about your kidney function, liver function, electrolytes, blood sugar, and more. It can be used to detect and monitor a variety of health conditions. This panel is typically requested by your healthcare provider as part of a routine check‐up or annual physical.

The Comprehensive Metabolic Panel includes 15 essential tests:

Electrolytes:

• Sodium (Na)
• Potassium (K)
• Chloride (Cl)
• Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
• Calcium (Ca)

Kidney Function:

• Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN)
• Creatinine (Cr)
• Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR)

Liver Function:

• Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP)
• Bilirubin, Total
• Aspartate Transaminase (AST)
• Alanine Transaminase (ALT)

Additional Tests:

• Albumin
• Total Protein
• Glucose

There are three main hormones in the thyroid system that should be balanced:

1. TSH: Thyroid Stimulating Hormone is the most important of the hormones in the thyroid system, this stimulates or acts on the thyroid gland, telling it how much of the actual thyroid hormones need to be made.
2. T4: Hormone is produced by the thyroid and travels throughout the body and is converted into T3.
3. T3: The active form of T4.  This is the hormone that goes into the cells and controls their function throughout the body.

A thyroid hormone panel screens for thyroid function and can help diagnose potential thyroid disease by examining your body’s production, levels, or usage of the different thyroid hormones.  There are two types of thyroid and thyroid hormone-related disorders:

1. Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) – symptoms may include fatigue, weight gain, a short attention span, and numbness or cold intolerance.

WHY DO I NEED THIS TEST?

If there is a thyroid level imbalance in your body, you may be more susceptible to everything from osteoporosis and heart disease to infertility and fatigue.

Thyroid disorders are more common in women and they often occur with changes in other hormone levels, such as with pregnancy or with older age.

Cortisol, also known as hydrocortisone, is a hormone released by the adrenal gland in response to stress.  When responding to a stressful situation cortisol prepares the body for a fight or flight response by increasing blood sugar, suppressing the immune system, and aiding in fat, protein and carbohydrate metabolism for increased energy.  Cortisol also prevents the release of substances that cause inflammation so it is used to treat diseases that cause inflammation such as rheumatoid arthritis and allergies.

Although cortisol is critical for our survival, too much cortisol is damaging to the body and can cause hyperglycemia, abdominal fat production, obesity, decreased bone density, compromised immune and inflammation response, increased blood pressure, damage to the heart, and may lead to Cushing’s syndrome.  Too little and our bodies don’t function properly either.  Damage to the adrenal gland or an autoimmune disease can reduce the amount of cortisol produced leading to weight loss, fatigue, low blood pressure, vomiting, diarrhea and loss of consciousness.

Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects your blood sugar levels. With diabetes, your body does not use insulin properly, or it does not make enough insulin.

Insulin is made in the pancreas. It helps the sugar (glucose) from food enter your cells, so it can be used for energy. If your body does not make enough insulin- or if it does not use insulin properly- the sugar (glucose) stays in your blood and does not reach your cells.

There are 2 types of diabetes- type 1 and type 2. Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes. In type 2 diabetes, the body does not use insulin as well as it should. In type 1 diabetes, the body does not produce enough insulin. 

The Diabetes Maintenance Panel consists of 4 tests that provide valuable information to help you and your healthcare provider monitor your diabetes treatment.

The EMMA uses the most sensitive molecular detection to look for the presence of 10 of the most toxigenic molds in your home or building. This test only requires a small amount of dust or material from your vent or drywall. The EMMA also tests directly for 15 of the most poisonous Mycotoxins using its patented Mycotoxin detection test.

Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR or sed rate) is a test that indirectly measures the degree of inflammation. Inflammation is part of the body’s immune response. It can be acute, which can show an increase in value after trauma, injury or infection. If the ESR is elevated for a long period of time, then it could be seen in conditions like autoimmune disease or cancer. The ESR is used as a screening test and not diagnostic, it provides general information about possible presence of an inflammatory condition. The ESR test has also been good indicator for diagnosis and monitoring of the following diseases, temporal arteritis, polymyaglia rheumatica, and systemic vaculitis.

Estrogens are a group of sex hormones most commonly associated with women, although men produce small amounts of estrogens as well.  Estradiol (E2) is the primary form of estrogen produced by a woman’s body during her reproductive years.  Other estrogen hormones include estrone (E1) and estriol (E3).  Estrone is associated with post-menopausal women and estriol is associated with pregnancy.

The Estradiol (E2) Test measures the amount of estradiol in your blood, which may help evaluate ovarian function and monitor follicular development during ovulation.  It is important to note that estradiol levels fluctuate over the course of a woman’s regular menstrual cycle.  Knowing where you are in your menstrual cycle when you take this test may aid you and your healthcare provider in interpreting your test results.

This test may be used to assess estrogen production in men using specialized reference ranges. Excess estrogen in males often results in breast tissue enlargement, referred to as gynecomastia.

This test is intended for biological females only, and is not appropriate for standard male reference ranges.

The Ferritin Test measures the level of ferritin molecules in the blood.

Ferritin is a protein in the body that binds to iron.  The level of ferritin correlates with the total amount of iron stored in the body.   Ferritin is low in those with iron deficiency anemia and high when levels of iron are raised.  Liver dysfunction can cause elevated ferritin levels because the liver is unable to clear it from the body.  Ferritin may also be increased when the body is inflamed or an infection is present.

Your individual genetics control as much as 40% of your body’s response to the foods you eat and the fitness regimen you choose.  The Fitness DNA Profile analyzes 34 genes in order to provide you with a personalized “owner’s manual” for your body based on your individual genetic blueprint.  Your report will give you tailored recommendations to guide diet, exercise, and nutritional choices including:

• Fat and carbohydrate balance
• Nutrient needs
• Response to strength and endurance training
• Muscle recovery and injury risk
• Tendency towards weight re-gain 

By choosing the Fitness DNA Profile, you will be able to use information about your own genetic makeup to optimize your diet, exercise program, and supplement regimen in a way that maximizes your overall health and wellness.

A  deficiency  of  folic  acid  is  common  in  pregnant  women,  alcoholics,  or  individuals  who  do  not  have  enough  raw  fruits  and  vegetables  in  their  diet.    The  most  reliable  method  of  testing  a  folate  deficiency  is by  checking  the  folate  levels  in  both  erythrocytes  and  serum.

The Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) test measures the amount of FSH, a sex hormone produced by the pituitary gland, in your blood. In women, Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH)  stimulates production of eggs and a hormone called estradiol during the first half of the menstrual cycle.  In men, Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) stimulates production of sperm.

Free T4 measures the free, unbound thyroxine levels in your bloodstream. Free T4 is typically elevated in hyperthyroidism, and lowered in hypothyroidism. Free or unbound T4 levels represent the level of hormone available for uptake and use by cells. Because the free levels of T4 represent immediately available hormone, free T4 is thought to better reflect the patient’s hormonal status than total T4.

The Galleri® Multi-Cancer Early Detection (MCED) test is an innovative blood test designed to look for a signal associated with many types of cancer – even before symptoms develop. Unlike traditional screening tests that typically check for a single type of cancer, the Galleri test is designed to detect a shared cancer signal across more than 50 types of cancer with a single blood draw.

Many cancers do not have recommended routine screening tests and are often diagnosed only after symptoms appear. The Galleri test is intended to complement – not replace – recommended cancer screenings such as mammograms, colonoscopies, Pap tests, PSA testing, and lung cancer screening when appropriate.

This test does not  diagnose cancer. A Cancer Signal Detected result requires follow-up testing to confirm if cancer is present. It does not detect all cancers and not all cancers can be detected in the blood. A healthcare provider should interpret your results in the context of your medical history and any additional testing that may be needed.

Early detection can make a meaningful difference for many cancers. The Galleri test offers a proactive approach to looking for a cancer signal with a simple blood draw, providing another tool to help you take control of your health.

Important Safety Information from GRAIL:

The Galleri test is recommended for use in adults with an elevated risk for cancer, such as those aged 50 or older. The Galleri test does not detect all cancers and should be used in addition to routine cancer screening tests recommended by a healthcare provider. Galleri is intended to detect cancer signals and predict where in the body the cancer signal is located. Use of Galleri is not recommended in individuals who are pregnant, 21 years old or younger, or undergoing active cancer treatment.

Results should be interpreted by a healthcare provider in the context of medical history, clinical signs and symptoms. A test result of ​“No Cancer Signal Detected” does not rule out cancer. A test result of ​“Cancer Signal Detected” requires confirmatory diagnostic evaluation by medically established procedures (e.g. imaging) to confirm cancer.

If cancer is not confirmed with further testing, it could mean that cancer is not present or testing was insufficient to detect cancer, including due to the cancer being located in a different part of the body. False-positive (a cancer signal detected when cancer is not present) and false-negative (a cancer signal not detected when cancer is present) test results do occur. Rx only.

Getting an early gender DNA test can be a fun activity for you, your family and friends! Especially as you make plans and get ready for your new baby. Our Gender Reveal test analyzes a simple blood draw sample to determine the gender of your unborn child. Gender Reveal testing is recommended as early as 8 weeks into pregnancy. This test can only be used for single pregnancies. This non-invasive prenatal test (NIPT) test has accuracy above 99%. This test analyzes the fetal DNA that circulates in maternal blood.

Millions of people in the United States are affected by gastrointestinal (GI) disorders.  Some are caused by pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites.  Others may be related to imbalances in the normal bacteria present in the GI tract.  Symptoms of a GI infection or other problem include diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, fever, abdominal pain, appetite changes, and more.        

If you are concerned about a GI infection or potential gut health or microbiome imbalances, stool testing can help.  Stool testing can detect pathogens in your digestive tract that could be making you sick.  It can also provide you with information about the health of your natural GI microbiome.

The Glucose (Serum) Test, also known as the Fasting Blood Glucose Test, is the most common test used to diagnose hyperglycemia (higher than normal levels of blood sugar), hypoglycemia (lower than normal levels of blood sugar) and diabetes. It’s commonly given by your doctor every year and during pregnancy. In addition, Diabetics self conduct this test multiple times a day to monitor their blood glucose.

This test is to determine if a person has an allergic reaction to gluten. Gluten is a protein found in rye, barley and wheat. The IgE test looks for antibodies which are seen in people that have a particular allergy. Allergy testing can help identify or rule out an allergy if someone is experiencing symptoms.

The Hemoglobin A1c Test is a valuable measure of the overall blood glucose levels over a period of time (2‐3 months). This test can be used to help detect pre‐diabetes and diagnose diabetes.  If you’re diabetic, this test can help determine if your disease is under control.

Herpes is caused by the herpes simplex virus, or HSV. There are two types of HSV- HSV 1 and HSV 2.

HSV 1 typically causes oral herpes, which can result in sores on/around your mouth. These are sometimes called cold sores or fever blisters. Many people with oral herpes get it early in life through non-sexual contact with saliva.

HSV 2 is usually the cause of genital herpes, which is an STI (sexually transmitted infection). This can result in sores on the genitals. Some cases of genital herpes can also be caused by HSV 1.

Many people with herpes show little to no symptoms, so the best way to know if you have it is by testing for it. This test can tell you if you have HSV 1 or HSV 2. There is no cure for herpes, but outbreaks can be managed with medications.

The C‐Reactive Protein (High Sensitivity, Cardiac) (CRP) is a blood test that measures the amount of protein (called C‐reactive Protein) in your blood that indicates inflammation.  It’s also used to assess your risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD).  “High Sensitivity” means that this particular test can see if you have an increased chance of having a heart problem or heart attack.

The best way to utilize test results is to be tested two different times (typically taken two weeks apart). Your physician will take the average of the two test results to determine your risk for cardiovascular disease or the presence of inflammation.

High levels of CRP are caused by infections and many long‐term diseases. But a CRP test cannot show where the inflammation is located or what is causing it. Other tests are needed to find the cause and location of the inflammation.

HIV is a sexually transmitted disease (that can be spread outside of sexual contact) known as Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).   It is the virus that causes AIDS. This condition damages your immune system and can lead to serious illness, infections and many other symptoms.

There are two parts to the HIV Test at ANY LAB TEST NOW®.

1. The first part is an initial blood screen. A negative result means there are no HIV antibodies and p24 antigen in your blood.

2. If the screen is positive, the lab will run a confirmation test called an HIV 1 / 2 Antibody differentiation test. This confirmation test will determine an HIV-1 or HIV-2 virus.

The Human Papillomavirus, or HPV, is a sexually transmitted infection comprised of more than 150 different types of virus. HPV is spread by having vaginal, anal or oral sex with someone who has the virus. It is estimated that 80% of all sexually active individuals will contract HPV at some point in their life.

The HPV Test is a qualitative in vitro test for the detection of the Human Papillomavirus using a vaginal swab for females. The vaginal swab is collected in the privacy of your own home. This test utilizes amplification of target DNA by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and nucleic acid hybridization for the detection of 14 high-risk HPV types. The test specifically identifies HPV types 16 and 18, while concurrently detecting the rest of the high risk types (31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66 and 68). When left untreated, HPV can lead to risks of cervical, vaginal, vulvar, and anal cancers.

This test kit is available for purchase in-store or for purchase online at select locations.

Test Results:

Turn-around time is approximately 2 – 3 days after the specimen arrives at the lab.

The LipoPlus (Vitamin B6 with Lipotropics) Injection includes Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, and lipotropics (methionine, inositol, and choline).

Vitamin B6 (also known as pyridoxine) is an important B-vitamin. It can be found in foods such as tuna, poultry, salmon, chickpeas, some fortified cereals, and more. Low vitamin B6 levels may lead to a variety of symptoms, including (but not limited to): depression, fatigue, confusion, and decreased immune function.

Vitamin B12 (also known as cyanocobalamin or methylcobalamin) is another important nutrient. Vitamin B12 can be found naturally in foods. It can also be added to foods and supplements. Foods that are naturally high in B12 include fish, red meat, poultry, eggs, dairy products, and more. 

Lipotropics (such as methionine, inositol, and choline) assist with metabolism in the body. These can include different vitamins, minerals, and amino acids.

ANY LAB TEST NOW® provides LipoPlus (Vitamin B6 with Lipotropics) supplementation at wellness levels through a quick and easy injection. Benefits may include:

• May help boost your mood
• May boost your energy by breaking down carbohydrates, sugars, and fats; and converting foods to energy
• Help boost your metabolism, which can enhance weight loss efforts when combined with diet and exercise
• May help promote the breakdown of fats in the liver. Choline, a natural ingredient in lipotropics, acts as a detoxifier.
• May contribute to anemia prevention or management

We always recommend consulting with your trusted healthcare provider before receiving an injection.

A lipoprotein is a small protein that carries different kinds of fats like cholesterol or triglycerides.  While the body produces many different kinds of lipoproteins, some of them can have positive or protective effects on heart health. However, too much of the same can also be a risk for your heart.

A standard cholesterol panel will include things like LDL, HDL and triglycerides.  Looking at cholesterol levels, specifically the LDL (sometimes called “bad cholesterol”) and HDL (sometimes called “good cholesterol”) is important; this is a very common tool of many healthcare providers.  A more in-depth look at the different parts of this system can provide an even better idea of the balance between risk factors and protective factors. 30% of the population can have “normal” cholesterol values, but have elevated lipoprotein particle numbers. This- along with other factors and tests- could indicate an elevated risk for heart disease.

The Luteinizing Hormone or LH Test measures how much of the hormone is in your blood.   The LH is produced by the pituitary gland in both men and women.

In females, this hormone helps regulate the menstrual cycle and egg production.  It is common to see LH levels rise and fall during the monthly menstrual cycle.  It is also useful in the production of estrogen and progesterone.

In males, LH is responsible for the release of testosterone (which plays a role in producing sperm).

Lyme disease is common in the United States and is spread by infected ticks that then bite people or animals.  There are two types of ticks that carry Lyme disease in the United States: the deer tick in the Northeast and Midwest and the Western black-legged tick along the Pacific Coast.  If left untreated, Lyme disease can lead to problems with your skin, joints, nervous system and heart such as meningitis, joint pain, weakness and numbness of the arms and legs, memory problems, and less commonly irregular heartbeat and eye inflammation.  These issues can occur months or even years after a Lyme disease infection.  The presence of antibodies cannot always determine if the Lyme disease infection is recent or due to a tick bite in the past, but can provide information that your doctor can use to treat the infection.

Magnesium is a critical electrolyte that is necessary for proper muscle, nerve and enzyme function and is necessary for the body to make and use energy.  It also assists in the movement of other electrolytes, such as sodium and potassium, into and out of cells.  Low levels of magnesium are associated with cardiac arrhythmia.

The majority of magnesium in the body is found in bones and inside cells so the amount of magnesium in the blood is normally very small.  Magnesium levels can be easily increased through supplements or diet.  Foods that contain magnesium include whole grain products, leafy green vegetables, nuts and beans.  Some studies have also found that consuming foods rich in magnesium reduces the risk of stroke.

Measles, also called Rubeola, is a highly contagious virus that can be very serious if contracted by children. The infection causes a fever, cough, runny nose, conjunctivitis, and a rash that begins on the face and spreads to the rest of the body. In very young children, measles can lead to pneumonia as the virus spreads to the lungs. In older children the virus could lead to pneumonia, croup, diarrhea or swelling of the brain (encephalitis) which could cause seizures and brain damage.
A measles infection in pregnant women can be very serious for the unborn child. The virus can be passed from the mother to the baby and could cause premature birth or spontaneous abortions. While this is rare, due to the increase in early childhood vaccination, it is important to know whether you are immune to the virus before becoming pregnant.

Understanding your individual reproductive hormone balance is important for any woman.  It can be especially important for women struggling with fertility issues, irregular periods, or other symptoms that could be linked to hormone imbalances.  Reproductive awareness empowers women to understand their bodies, monitor hormonal health, and make informed decisions about everything from fertility to overall wellness.   

The Menstrual Cycle Mapping Test allows women to track their reproductive hormones across their entire menstrual cycle.  By collecting a dried urine sample every other day, fluctuations in the levels of three key hormones – estradiol, progesterone, and luteinizing hormone – can be tracked over time.  This provides a complete picture of your individual cycle, helping you to identify abnormalities that may affect fertility, menstrual cycle regularity, or other conditions associated with reproductive hormone balance.  

This kit is available for purchase in-store or online.

MMR stands for Measles, Mumps and Rubella (German Measles). The MMR Titer is a blood test that checks if you are immune to Measles, Mumps and Rubella. It measures your antibody levels to get a sense for whether your immune system has the capability to respond to an infection with one of these diseases.

The Osteoporosis Risk Panel includes ten different tests that evaluate your risk for osteoporosis – a debilitating disease that causes bones to become more fragile.

Calcium and Vitamin D play a large part in diagnosing osteoporosis.  If you are deficient in these minerals, this panel will tell you.  The other tests help make the panel more comprehensive and give you and your physician a better evaluation of your bones and how your body processes the minerals needed to create bone.

The Lipase Test measures the level of lipase in the blood.

Your health and wellness depend on your body’s ability to regulate all your vital systems and efficiently adapt to stressors. Much like an airport that depends on seamless coordination between air traffic control, ground crews, and flight operations, your body relies on clear communication between all its systems.

The Platinum Female Wellness Panel takes a deeper look at how your body’s main systems are communicating by assessing 19 lab tests and more than 65 biomarkers encompassing your hormones, metabolism, immune response, and nutrient balance. It goes beyond routine testing by connecting the dots between things like reproductive health, mood, inflammation, and energy production so you can better understand the language your body is speaking.

Ideal for individuals experiencing complex or nonspecific symptoms, this panel supports a more accurate clinical picture.  It will help you identify where your body may need support to restore balance, guide treatment, and optimize overall well-being.

Potassium is a simple mineral that is important for the regulation of our heartbeat.  It, along with other electrolytes like sodium and chloride, helps to maintain the proper fluid and electrolyte balance, stimulates muscle contraction, and helps to regulate the acid and base balance in the body.  Each heart muscle needs the right balance of potassium to beat in a coordinated way with all the other heart muscles.  If you have high blood pressure, heart arrhythmias or have had heart failure it is especially important to get enough potassium.

Potassium can easily be found in our food and eating a healthy diet of fruits and vegetables will almost always ensure enough potassium in the body.  The USDA recommends that adults consume 4,700 mg of potassium per day.  Potassium-rich foods include potatoes, tomatoes, avocadoes, bananas, oranges, strawberries, spinach, peas and beans, and nuts and seeds.  Increasing your intake of fruits and vegetables will also lead to other benefits such as lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels.   Although the link between hypertension and cholesterol isn’t direct, many diets that lower cholesterol and blood pressure are also high in potassium.  Research has also shown that increasing potassium intake reduces the risk of stroke.

The Pre-Medication PrEP Panel (Female) is meant for individuals who are thinking about starting PrEP. The tests in this panel can help you establish a baseline for your kidney and liver function before starting PrEP. The panel will also tell you your status for certain STDs, including HIV, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia. The difference between the Pre-Medication PrEP Panel (Female) and the Pre-Medication PrEP Panel (Male) is that the female panel also includes a pregnancy test (qualitative beta hCG).

Pre-exposure prophylaxis (also known as PrEP) refers to medications that can be used to decrease your risk of contracting HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus). Examples of PrEP medications include Truvada, Descovy, and Apretude.

Before you start taking medication, it is essential to have PrEP lab testing done. These tests will help your healthcare provider ensure that PrEP is safe and suitable for you.

PrEP can be prescribed by a licensed healthcare provider. If you are interested in the Pre-Medication PrEP Panel, you should work with your healthcare provider to discuss your options, determine the frequency of lab testing, and to see if any additional testing is needed.  If you are already using PrEP and looking to have lab testing done, check out the PrEP Monitoring Panel (Female).

Please note that for gonorrhea and/or chlamydia testing, it is recommended that customers not urinate within one hour prior to providing a specimen.  Females also should not cleanse the genital area prior to providing a specimen.

Common tests that your surgeon may ask you to have before surgery.

The Pregnancy Test (Yes or No) is a blood test that detects the presence of hCG. This test can tell you if you are pregnant or not- “Yes” or “No” (positive or negative). This test cannot tell you how far along you are in the pregnancy; if you are interested in detecting pregnancy and also knowing how far along you are, check out the Pregnancy with Gestational Age (How Far Along) Test.

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a hormone produced by the placenta during pregnancy. hCG may be detectable in blood or urine around 7-11 days after conception. It reaches peak levels between the 7th and 10th week of gestation, then declines throughout the rest of the pregnancy. hCG can also be produced in other conditions, such as hydatidiform mole, choriocarcinoma, testicular neoplasm, and more. 

The Pregnancy with Gestational Age (How Far Along) Test is a blood test that detects the presence and levels of hCG. It not only tells you if you are pregnant, but it also tells you how far along you are in the pregnancy (if you are at least 2 weeks pregnant at the time of the test).

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a hormone produced by the placenta during pregnancy. hCG may be detectable in blood or urine around 7-11 days after conception. It reaches peak levels between the 7th and 10th week of gestation, then declines throughout the rest of the pregnancy. hCG can also be produced in other conditions, such as hydatidiform mole, choriocarcinoma, testicular neoplasm, and more. 

An OB panel is a group of blood tests done to check the health or a woman during early pregnancy.

The Progesterone Test measures the amount of the hormone in your blood. Progesterone is a female hormone produced by the ovaries and it’s essential for pregnancy. It prepares the uterus for fertilization and produces breast milk. The hormone also plays a role in sexual desire.

Prolactin levels are a good measure if there is a dysfunction within your body.  Symptoms that may trigger someone to check their prolactin level include nipple discharge, headaches and visual problems, infertility (male and female), impotence, possible pituitary tumor, prolactinomas and irregular or no menstrual periods.

A renal panel is a group of tests that are used to evaluate the kidney (renal) Function. Minerals, electrolytes, proteins, and glucose are measured as part of a renal function panel.

If the kidneys are not working properly, waste products can accumulate in the blood and fluid levels could change which could cause damage to the body and be potentially life-threatening. There are a variety of conditions that can result in damage to the kidneys.

If your joints hurt from walking up stairs, opening up jars or other routine activity, you may want to take the RA Factor Test.   Rheumatoid arthritis often causes problems in several joints at the same time – affecting your smaller joints like wrists and ankles first. As the disease progresses, your shoulders, elbows, knees, hips, jaw and neck can also become involved.  Basically, your whole body hurts and it’s not fun.

Adrenal glands that are in balance produce adequate amounts of hormones to power us through the day. These hormones impact just about every process in the body, from energy production and immune activity to cellular maintenance and repair. They are key regulators of glucose, insulin and inflammation, and play a major role in bone and muscle building, mood and mental focus, stamina, sex drive and sleep cycles.

This kit tests the adrenal hormones DHEA-S and Cortisol, the master stress hormone. When individuals experience continuous stress, not only from emotional stressors (e.g., marital, financial, and occupational) but also from physical stressors (e.g., sleep deprivation, caffeine consumption, pain, extreme exercise), it can lead to changes in adrenal hormone levels, related to disorders ranging from anxiety to allergies and irritability to infertility.

This kit is available for purchase in-store or online.

The GLP-1 Monitoring Panel consists of 9 blood tests that can help you and your healthcare provider monitor your health while taking semaglutide or another GLP-1 agonist. Even if you are not taking a GLP-1 agonist, this panel can provide valuable information about your blood sugar and insulin levels, kidney and liver function, thyroid health, blood count, cholesterol, and vitamin B12.

GLP-1 agonists, including semaglutide (Ozempic®, Wegovy®), are medications that are primarily used to treat type 2 diabetes. However, some have also been approved for weight management in individuals with obesity. When taking a GLP-1 agonist for weight loss, monitoring your blood work is essential for several reasons:

• Staying safe: Like all medications, they can sometimes cause side effects. This is why routine lab monitoring is important.  By doing regular blood tests, you and your healthcare provider can detect potential adverse reactions.
• Monitoring organ function: Many medications are processed by your liver and kidneys, so it is important to monitor your liver and kidney function when taking certain medications. 
• Checking your nutrients: If you are taking additional supplements while using a GLP-1 agonist, it is important to keep track of your levels.
• Checking blood sugar: GLP-1 agonists like semaglutide are also used to control blood sugar levels in people with diabetes. Even if you are taking one for weight loss, it can still affect your blood sugar.

The GLP-1 Monitoring Panel provides a great starting point for routine lab monitoring while taking semaglutide or another GLP-1 agonist. You should work with your healthcare provider to determine the frequency of lab testing, and to see if any additional testing is needed.

More than 60 million Americans suffer from some degree of sleep loss. It’s no surprise that many of us are still unaware of the connection between hormones and sleep.

Common hormone-related causes of sleep loss:

• High cortisol results in insomnia, anxiety, sugar cravings, feeling tired but wired & increased belly fat
• Low Melatonin results in excessive fatigue, depression, anxiety & insomnia

To restore the vital balance of hormones, you need to start with an accurate measurement of hormone levels.

The Sleep Balance Take Home Hormone Kit includes:

A dried urine test to measure Melatonin levels ( Melatonin (MT6s x 4))
A dried urine test to measure Cortisol levels (Free Cortisol (C x 4))

This kit is available in-store or for purchase online.

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are also known as sexually transmitted infections (STI). This refers to a group of infections that can be spread from one person to another through sexual contact. Treatment of STDs depends on the type of infection. HIV, Herpes, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and HPV are caused by viruses. Chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis are bacterial infections, and trichomoniasis is a parasitic infection.

STDs are common, and it is possible to have an STD and not realize it. Symptoms of STDs can vary- some people might experience significant symptoms, and others might not have any symptoms at all. Even if people do not feel any symptoms, they can still spread STDs. This is why STD testing is so important.

Early detection is essential for STD treatment. If you think you may have been exposed to an STD, or if you simply want to get tested, then the Comprehensive STD Panel could be a good option for you. This panel looks for HIV, syphilis, herpes (HSV1 & HSV 2), gonorrhea, chlamydia, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. If you are interested in testing for additional STDs, you should consider the Comprehensive STD Plus Panel, or the Comprehensive STD Platinum Panel.

Please note that for gonorrhea and/or chlamydia testing, it is recommended that customers not urinate within one hour prior to providing a specimen.  Females also should not cleanse the genital area prior to providing a specimen.

Student titer I panel is needed for healthcare students, school faculty, healthcare and veterinary professionals, medical sales and medical device representatives to have confirmation of immunization through titer testing. The antibody test is an analysis that detects the presence and measures the amount of antibodies in a person’s blood.

Student titer II panel (previously the Allied Health Panel) is needed for healthcare students, school faculty, healthcare and veterinary professionals, medical sales and medical device representatives to have confirmation of immunization through titer testing. The antibody test is an analysis that detects the presence and measures the amount of antibodies in a person’s blood.

This test measures the total amount of circulating thyroxine in your blood. Thyroxine, a hormone produced by the thyroid, is also known as T4. A high value can indicate hyperthyroidism, a low value can indicate hypothyroidism. Total T4 levels can be elevated due to pregnancy, and other high estrogen states, including use of estrogen replacement or birth control pills.

Your thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located in the lower front part of your neck. Its job is to secrete hormones that control growth/development during childhood, regulate your metabolism and body temperature, and drive the production of neurotransmitters that help you feel good and others that motivate you to accomplish your goals: serotonin, dopamine, adrenaline, and noradrenaline.

8 Factors that Inhibit Healthy Thyroid Function:

• Excess stress and cortisol production
• Selenium deficiency
• Deficient protein, excess sugar
• Chronic illness
• Compromised liver or kidney function
• Cadmium, mercury, lead toxicity
• Herbicides, pesticides
• Oral contraceptives, excessive estrogen production

Thyroid disease or dysfunction can explain a wide variety of symptoms, yet it is notoriously under-diagnosed. The American Thyroid Association estimates that over 12% of the US population will develop thyroid disease during their lifetime, and that as many as 60% of people with thyroid disease are not aware of it.  Many elements that can affect the thyroid are present in the food we eat, air we breathe, and water we drink and are tasteless and odorless, so they are impossible to detect without testing.

This kit can be purchased in-store or online.

The Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies test assists in the diagnosis of thyroid diseases such as endemic goiter, Graves Disease, autoimmune thyroiditis, Addison’s Disease, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, Hashimoto’s Disease, and polyendocrine auto-immunopathies.

The thyroid gland is responsible for regulating how your body uses energy. The thyroid also produces hormones critical to proper cell and system functioning.

The Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) test checks your body’s production of TSH and helps screen  for thyroid disease, hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism.

There are two types of thyroid disorders including:

• Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) – symptoms may include fatigue, weight gain, a short attention span, and numbness or cold intolerance.
• Hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) – symptoms may include weight loss, persistent vomiting, increased blood pressure, hair loss or a persistently fast heart rate.

The Iron and Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) Test measures the amount of iron in your blood.  Having too much or too little iron in your blood can cause medical problems.  However, this test is mainly used to determine certain types of anemia.

The Tri-Immune Boost injection includes Vitamin C, Glutathione, and Zinc Sulfate.

Vitamin C is also known as ascorbic acid. It is an important nutrient with many functions, including (but not limited to): supporting the immune system, serving as an antioxidant, promoting wound healing, and helping with iron absorption.

Glutathione is an antioxidant that plays a role in detoxification, immune function, and more.

Zinc Sulfate is a mineral that plays a significant role in growth and development.

ANY LAB TEST NOW® provides Tri-Immune Boost supplementation at wellness levels through a quick and easy injection. Benefits may include:

• May support immune function and response
• May reduce inflammation
• May promote wound healing
• May promote blood sugar management

We always recommend consulting with your trusted healthcare provider before receiving an injection.

Uric acid is the byproduct of the breakdown of purines. This test measures the level of uric acid in the blood. This blood test is used to detect high levels of uric acid in the blood to help diagnose gout. Also, the presence of high uric acid can lead to kidney stones or kidney failure. This test can also be used to monitor levels of uric acid for people that are undergoing chemotherapy or radiation treatment for cancer.

The Urinalysis can determine a number of health problems. It will see if your kidneys are functioning normally, if sugar is present in your urine, if you’re burning fat or if you have a urinary tract infection.  In addition, it can locate substances that may be causing everything from metabolic problems to kidney disorders.  Some doctors request a Urinalysis before surgery or during the early stages of pregnancy.

A bacterium known as Escherichia coli (E. coli) causes the majority of lower urinary tract infections (UTIs). Fortunately, this microorganism is treatable with several antibiotics, including trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, ciprofloxacin, and nitrofurantoin.  For most people the infection will be easily eliminated with one of these antibiotics. Some doctors prescribe an antibiotic without performing a urine culture but the test can definitively identify a UTI.

The urine culture tests for the presence of a single type of bacteria.  If high counts are found the test is generally considered a positive urine culture.  If there are multiple bacteria strains, the culture may have been contaminated and the urine culture may need to be redone.  Symptoms of a UTI include pain and burning when urinating and a frequent urge to urinate.  If symptoms are present, but the urine culture is negative, you may want to consult your doctor who may order a specialized urine culture to look for a wider range of the non-diluted urine to determine if bacteria at lower counts or other microorganisms may be causing the symptoms.  The presence of low number of bacteria and the presence of white blood cells may indicate a condition known as acute urethral syndrome.

Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin) and Folate is necessary for normal red blood cell (RBC) formation, repair of tissues and cells, and synthesis of DNA, the genetic material in cells. Both are nutrients that cannot be produced and must be supplied by the diet.  

Vitamin B12 (also known as cyanocobalamin or methylcobalamin) is an important nutrient. It is one of eight B-group vitamins that the body needs for essential functions.

Vitamin B12 can be found naturally in foods. It can also be added to foods and supplements. Foods that are naturally high in B12 include fish, red meat, poultry, eggs, dairy products, and more.

ANY LAB TEST NOW® provides Vitamin B12 supplementation at wellness levels through a quick and easy injection. Benefits may include:

• May promote better sleep, which leads to more energy
• May contribute to anemia prevention or management
• May support bone health, and potentially nurture healthy hair, skin, and nails
• May boost your mood, along with symptoms of depression or “brain fog”

We always recommend consulting with your trusted healthcare provider before receiving an injection.

The Vitamin C injection is a single-nutrient injection that includes Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid. It is an important nutrient with many functions, including (but not limited to): supporting the immune system, serving as an antioxidant, promoting wound healing, and helping with iron absorption.

Vitamin C can be found naturally in foods. It can also be added to foods and supplements. Foods that are naturally high in Vitamin C include berries, citrus fruits, broccoli, peppers, tomatoes, and more. Low levels of vitamin C may lead to symptoms such as scurvy, bleeding gums, and joint pain.

ANY LAB TEST NOW® provides Vitamin C supplementation at wellness levels through a quick and easy injection. Benefits may include:

• May promote the absorption of iron, benefiting those on vegan or vegetarian diets
• May aid in strengthening your immune system and healing process
• May help with collagen synthesis and protect cells from free radicals

We always recommend consulting with your trusted healthcare provider before receiving an injection.

Vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin that interacts with and regulates more than 200 genes in the body.  Your body absorbs Vitamin D from exposure to sunlight or ultraviolet light on exposed skin, and from plants, fortified foods and supplements.

Hormones are messengers that send signals to various parts of the body; by doing so, they affect the way our organs work, and regulate many different body processes. Hormones naturally follow a cycle, and hormone testing looks at where your hormones are in that cycle. 

Hormone imbalances may make it difficult to maintain your weight. The Weight Management Hormone Panel can help you and your healthcare provider understand any potential underlying hormonal imbalances that could affect weight gain, weight loss, or weight management. 

This panel looks at various hormones and other factors that play different roles in your body’s ability to maintain weight. Cortisol is a stress hormone that affects your metabolism and the way your body uses sugar- so if you frequently feel stressed, your body will use sugar differently than if you were relaxed. Thyroid hormones also affect your metabolism, which can in turn affect your weight. Your sex hormones- testosterone, estradiol, progesterone, DHEA-S- affect the way that your body deposits fat.
