DUTCH Dried Urine Hormonal Testing

The DUTCH Complete is a comprehensive analysis of sex hormones, cortisol levels, and their metabolites.  It also includes markers for nutritional deficiencies, oxidative stress, gut health, & melatonin.

This information is useful to optimize hormone health and address symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, hair loss, and mood swings.

IgG Food Sensitivity Testing

IgG Food Sensitivity Testing

The IgG Food Sensitivity Test helps to identify potential "problem" foods by detecting food-specific IgG antibodies in your blood.  


These results can help tailor a diet that is free from these food sensitivities potentially helping with digestive concerns, skin issues, detoxification and fatigue.

Stool Testing

Organic Acid Testing (OAT)

IgG Food Sensitivity Testing

Uses qPCR DNA technology to detect pathogens, microbiome balance, and intestinal health markers from a single at-home stool sample. 


This can help in putting together targeted treatment plans for patients with digestive issues, immune concerns, and neurodiversities.

Organic Acid Testing (OAT)

Organic Acid Testing (OAT)

Organic Acid Testing (OAT)

The OAT tests organic acids (metabolic by-products) in the urine providing a unique biochemistry profile for each patient.  


This test assesses nutrient absorption and utilization, aiding in identifying vitamin deficiencies and imbalances that contribute to health issues like fatigue, mood changes, and digestive problems.

Vaginal Microbiome Test

Organic Acid Testing (OAT)

Organic Acid Testing (OAT)

At-home vaginal microbiome test uncovers 700+ bacteria & fungi (yeast).  


Checks for vaginal infections like the cause of recurrent UTIs, aerobic vaginitis, bacterial vaginosis (BV), mycoplasma yeast infections, and even good healthy microbiome strains.
