Home Test Kits
Biochemistry is the study of body chemistry that feeds the physiology or function of every cell, organ and system. Ill health and disease carry an underlying disruption or imbalance in this biochemistry. If these imbalances can be determined and corrected then healthy function will be able to return. Biochemical testing can uncover nutritional deficiencies as well as measure toxic metal levels and other poisons as they affect the cells and tissues. Biochemical testing also reveals food intolerances and allergies. Once the test results are known it is easy to design a customized dietary and supplement program which will balance out the body’s required nutrients and actively avoid the foods that do not agree with the body.Of course, your family doctor can run all sorts of routine tests or refer to you a consultant for specialist tests. But there are also some tests you can do yourself at home and have them sent directly to a laboratory for analysis. These DIY tests require a sample that you take yourself. Such tests include instructions, sample containers and may require one or more of the following: a pinprick of blood, a hair sample or saliva sample. You will often get your test results within 10-14 days and these are usually presented in a clear and easy to read format. Many test kits include guidelines for how to implement any recommended changes to your diet or lifestyle.
Food Intolerance Home Test Kit
Food Intolerance tests analyze your blood against a mix of the most common food allergens. If you are intolerant to foods your immune system produces raised levels of IgG antibodies in your blood. The Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) method test measures these levels. This technology is well known for its accuracy and reproducibility. The test provides a precise and detailed measurement of any delayed IgG reactions to 113 common foods (including grains, fish, dairy, nuts, meats, vegetables and fruits). Testing against such a wide range of foods provides you with a much larger selection of 'safe' foods that you can eat without worrying, enabling you to maintain a balanced and varied diet.Coeliac Home Test Kit
Gluten allergy – or coeliac disease – used to be considered a rare condition, but new research suggests that 1 in 100 may be affected. Symptoms vary from digestive complaints and fatigue to headaches and anaemia, although a gluten allergy can underpin any type of unexplained ill health. Historically, diagnosis has been time-consuming and intrusive. Today, advances in medical technology mean that a simple blood or saliva test is all that is required.Candida Anti-body Test
Candida albicans is one of the many yeasts present in the large bowel, genital tract, mouth, and throat and under normal conditions is compatible with good health. It is usually kept under control by good bacteria, our immune system and intestinal pH levels. What is less well known is that candida can, under certain circumstances, become pathogenic, causing havoc everywhere in the body. The Candida Antibody test is performed on a saliva sample. DIY test kits are sent through directly in the mail for you to return with your sample to the laboratory in the envelope provided.Hair Mineral Analysis test kits
Do you ever wonder if you are getting the right nutrients? How can you tell if your diet and multivitamin is giving you enough zinc, or whether you are actually absorbing the nutrients from your food and supplements? Or perhaps you may wonder whether a deficiency in chromium is contributing to a difficulty in losing weight? Most of us gauge our health by how we look and feel, but this can only tell us so much. There is a way to tell how well the body is functioning on an intracellular level without requiring invasive medical tests, and that is through the hair. While most people’s interest in their hair extends only so far as to whether they are having a 'good' or a 'bad' hair day, few know your hair can in fact reveal much about your inner health. Hair mineral analysis test reveals exactly which deficiencies and excess retentions are creating antagonistic disturbances of the most fundamental nutrients your body has at this moment.Where can I get these online?
