The Benefits of Doctor's Data
GI Panels – Gastrointestinal testing
Clinical microbiology plays a crucial role in individual and community health. Because most microbes living on or within the body are beneficial, distinguishing those that are disease producing is critical. Doctor’s Data combines advanced technology with traditional clinical microbiology to provide world-class diagnostic testing that helps you assess digestive and absorptive functions, detect pathogens or parasites and identify specific bacteria and yeast. Our results can help you select the most appropriate antimicrobial therapy.
Toxic Heavy Metal Testing
Elements are the basic building blocks of all chemical compounds, and human exposure to them occurs from many sources. Many elements are considered nutrients and are essential for the proper functioning of the body. These are generally divided between macrominerals such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium and zinc, and trace minerals including selenium, iodine, boron and molybdenum. Conversely, there are a number of elements that are toxic to the human body, interfere with its functioning and undermine health—such as mercury, lead, cadmium, aluminum, and arsenic. These toxic metals have no known physiological functions. They can be toxic to organ systems and may disrupt the balance of essential nutrients.
Adrenal Function
Cortisol levels should be at their highest level 30 minutes after waking up in the morning, decreasing gradually over the course of the day, reaching their lowest point at bedtime. The resulting curve or pattern allows health care providers to pinpoint issues with adrenal gland function. Alterations in this pattern can results in symptoms related to stress, fatigue and insomnia. DHEA levels naturally decline with age, although alterations can be seen as part of the stress response.
Hormone
Hormones are powerful molecules essential for maintaining physical and mental health. An imbalance of any one hormone can throw your physical and mental health out of balance, causing aggravating and even serious health problems. We offer hormone test profiles in urine, saliva and blood. Urinary neurotransmitter profiles provide insight into a patient’s overall ability to synthesize and metabolize neurotransmitters. Doctor's Data offers analysis of hormones, neurotransmitters, and metabolites that may impact symptoms, metabolic function, mood or behavior.
