FUNCTIONAL TESTING
What you don't know may be harming you.
LET'S DIVE DEEPER INTO UNDERSTANDING WHAT COULD BE AT THE ROOT OF YOUR FRUSTRATING SYMPTOMS AND CONDITION.
Most of the testing options are done through Mosaic DX, Genova Connect, Rupa Health and Max Gen.
Some of the tests can be done at home, do not require a doctor or physician to request or read the results.
These functional type tests are not usually covered by insurance and seen as preventative testing deemed not necessary. Blue Cross Blue Shield, Tricare, Medicare may offer partial to full coverage for some tests.
You will have to contact your own insurance provider to find out their coverage.
Information on common blood lab testing that I recommend are found on the
Holistic Nutrition and Lifestyle Counseling Page.
I recommend getting these done to get started working with me.
If you have not done any Functional Type testing, I recommend starting with:
1. Metabolomix Plus (with Fatty Acids & Urine Elements) by Genova- Nutritional and Organic Acid Testing
2. IgG Food Sensitivity Testing- 190 foods plus Hemp, Candida and Yeast IgG Response
3. Gut Health Stool Test- Testing Microbial Health, Digestion, Pathogens, Inflammation and More.
If you have already done some of this testing and want to dig deeper, a Toxin Panel is highly recommended with Glyphosate, Heavy Metals and Minerals if you havent done the Metabolomix Plus test and haven't collected these through blood serum testing through a Dr. A mycotoxin test if you have dealt with mold in the home or have had exposure to it as work, schools, cars, RV, etc.

METABOLOMIX + By Genova $475
A Non-Invasive Comprehenive Personalized Nutritional Assessment
The Metabolomix+ is a unique combination of nutritional tests that provides an analysis of key nutritional biomarkers.
A first morning void (FMV) urine collection, with optional add-on bloodspot finger stick (for fatty acids/Omega 3,6 and 9's) and buccal swab, the Metabolomix+ nutritional test is a non-invasive, patient-friendly way to assess the functional need for antioxidants, B-vitamins, minerals, digestive support, fatty acids, and amino acids.
Insights gained from the Metabolomix+ nutritional test allows clinicians to target nutritional therapies to address underlying insufficiencies and promote health and longevity. I recommend the add on comprehensive Urine Toxic Metals and Minerals/Elements. It is included in the Genova Connect Nutritional Testing kit @ $475. You can self order through Genova Connect.

THORNE Comprehensive Gut Health Stool Analysis with Parasitology $200
The Comprehensive Stool Analysis by THORNE detects the presence of pathogenic microorganisms such as yeast, parasites, bacterial overgrowth and imbalances that contribute to chronic illness and neurological dysfunction. The test also evaluates beneficial bacteria levels, intestinal immune function, inflammation markers, overall intestinal health and markers for leaky gut.
Key markers and analyses included in the test:
-
Microbial Diversity (Beta-Diversity): The test provides a beta-diversity score, which is a more in-depth metric than alpha-diversity. It measures both the variety of bacteria and their relative abundance, comparing your microbiome to that of healthy individuals.
-
Gut Dysbiosis: This score calculates the overall balance of your gut microbes, assessing the levels of both beneficial and potentially harmful bacteria.
-
Specific Bacteria: The report highlights levels for 12 beneficial, 18 harmful, and 6 "conditional" bacteria. Conditional bacteria may be beneficial or harmful depending on your specific health context.
-
Pathogens: Your sample is screened for a set of undesirable pathogens, including viruses and parasites.
-
Digestion and Absorption: The test analyzes your gut's capability to digest certain compounds and produce beneficial short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which are crucial for anti-inflammatory effects and gut motility.
-
Inflammation and Intestinal Permeability: It looks for markers associated with inflammation and "leaky gut," such as the presence of certain genes that produce inflammatory proteins like calprotectin.
-
Nutrient Production: The test shows your gut microbiome's ability to produce important micronutrients, including
-
Folate (B9), Niacin (B3), Vitamin B6, and Vitamin B12.
-
Immune Readiness: This score indicates how prepared your gut-associated immune system is to respond to foreign invaders.
-
Gut-Brain Axis Balance: Your Enteric Nervous System Balance score reflects the communication between your gut and brain.
-
Fungi: The total fungi score helps you understand your risk for an overgrowth of fungi like Candida.
(Available for 18 years and older)

MOSAIC DX MYCOTOXIN MOLD EXPOSURE $300
Mycotoxins (toxins from mold) are some of the most prevalent toxins in the environment. Mycotoxins are metabolites produced by fungi like mold, which can infest buildings, vehicles, and foodstuffs. Most mycotoxin exposures in North America, Europe, and Australia are through airborne exposure. Food may be a major source of mycotoxins in third-world nations that lack government inspection of foods, especially the grains such as rice, corn, wheat, rye, and barley. Many grains that are harvested have been found to be contaminated with mycotoxins but little of such harvests are discarded and are frequently sold for animal feeds such as dog food or feed for cows, pigs, chickens, turkeys, and horses.
Fungi can grow on almost any surface, especially if the environment is warm and wet. Inner wall materials of buildings, wallpaper, fiber glass insulation, ceiling tiles, and gypsum support are all good surfaces for fungi to colonize. These fungi then release mycotoxins into the environment causing symptoms of many different chronic diseases. Diseases and symptoms linked to mycotoxin exposure include fever, pneumonia-like symptoms, heart disease, rheumatic disease, asthma, sinusitis, cancer, memory loss, vision loss, chronic fatigue, skin rashes, depression, ADHD, anxiety, and liver damage. With the MycoTOX Profile we can identify mycotoxin exposures and make recommendations for detoxification treatments that have been effective.
MycoTOX screens for eleven different mycotoxins, from 40 species of mold, in one urine sample.
Mosaic currently measures 11 different mycotoxins in our test from a wide variety of 13 mold types (genera) including Aspergillus, Penicillium, Fusarium, Myrothecium, Stachybotrys, Bipolaris, Gibberella, Chaetomium, Trichoderma, Trichothecium, Cephalosporium, Verticimonosporium, and Monascus. Since each of these genera contain multiple species, the MycoTOX Profile is likely to detect hundreds of mold species. In addition, poisonous mushrooms also produce some of the same mycotoxins as the molds. This makes the MycoTOX Profile the most comprehensive test on the market and it is the most cost-effective.

Hair Heavy Metals and Minerals Test $180
Hair Elements analysis through Mosaic DX provides information regarding recent and ongoing exposure to potentially toxic and neurotoxic metals such as methylmercury, arsenic, aluminum, tin, cadmium, lead, antimony and mercury and time-averaged status of specific nutrient elements (minerals) which plays a key role in essential mineral balances/deficiencies or toxic abnormalities.
The CDC acknowledges the value of hair mercury levels as a maternal and infant marker for exposure to neurotoxic methylmercury from particular large fish.
This noninvasive screening test requires only .25 grams of hair. Toxic elements may be 200 to 300 times more highly concentrated in hair than in blood or urine. Therefore, hair is the tissue of choice for detection of recent exposure to toxic elements.
You will receive a kit from Mosaic DX within 4-5 business days after payment.
It takes roughly14 days for the test results to be posted via email. This test can be done at home with hair samples. Please allow one inch of hair to grow out or use pubic hairs. Follow instructions on kit once received.

Organic Acids Test $350
The Organic Acids Test (OAT) through MOSAIC DX offers a comprehensive metabolic snapshot of a patient’s overall health with 76 markers. It provides an accurate evaluation of intestinal yeast and bacteria. Abnormally high levels of these microorganisms can cause or worsen behavior disorders, hyperactivity, movement disorders, fatigue and immune function. Many people with chronic illnesses and neurological disorders often excrete several abnormal organic acids in their urine. The cause of these high levels could include oral antibiotic use, high sugar diets, immune deficiencies, acquired infections, as well as genetic factors.
The Organic Acids Test also includes markers for vitamin and mineral levels, oxidative stress, neurotransmitter levels, and is the only OAT to include markers for oxalates, which are highly correlated with many chronic illnesses.
If abnormalities are detected using the OAT, treatments can include supplements, such as vitamins and antioxidants, or dietary modification. Upon treatment, patients and practitioners have reported significant improvement such as decreased fatigue, regular bowel function, increased energy and alertness, increased concentration, improved verbal skills, less hyperactivity, and decreased abdominal pain. The OAT is strongly recommended as the initial screening test.
