Micronutrient Testing

Micronutrient testing is a blood test that tells us how 35 vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, amino acids and fatty acids are actually functioning in your body, not just whether or not they fall within an arbitrary "normal" range. This gives us the most accurate analysis of your body's deficiencies and allows us to correct those that may be impairing your health. ​The test also evaluates your immune function and carbohydrate metabolism (glucose/insulin response).

CardioMetabolic Testing

Poor blood sugar regulation and unhealthy triglyceride and lipoprotein levels often present long before the diagnosis of type 2 Diabetes.  SpectraCell's CardioMetabolic and Pre-Diabetes panels offer definitive diagnostic and clinically relevant evaluation to help define risk of cardiovascular disease and progression toward type 2 diabetes. 

Standard cholesterol testing only gives you part of the picture leaving many people with "normal" cholesterol numbers unaware that they are still at risk for a heart attack. Cholesterol is carried throughout the body in little balls called lipoproteins.  It is the lipoproteins, not the cholesterol in them, that leads to clogging of the arteries. This test accurately measures both the density and number of lipoprotein particles (LPP), revealing potential cardiovascular problems that are often missed when only using a standard lipid panel. 

​According to the NCEP guidelines, 50% of people who have a heart attack have normal cholesterol levels. ​

Why LPP Testing is Preferred Over Standard Blood Lipid Tests

MTHFR Genetic Testing

MTHFR (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase) is an enzyme involved in the metabolism of folate and homocysteine. Genetic variations reduce enzymatic activity in some people and increases risk of heart disease, mental health conditions, miscarriages, neural tube defects and more. Based on MTHFR and homocysteine results, increased intake of folate alone or in combination with vitamins B6 and B12 are often recommended.

TEST COST:  $70
