I have established relationships with laboratories to help provide accurate, meaningful, and science based nutrition testing including Leap MRT Food Sensitivity Test and Spectracell Micronutrient Test to further define and direct your personal protocol.
(1) Leap Mediator Release Test is a Food and Chemical Sensitivity Test through Oxford Biomedical Laboratories and is the most effective food sensitivity test and protocol currently available. Leap MRT tests 170 items, 140 foods and 30 chemicals identifying your non-IgE reactive foods & chemicals that trigger inflammation and an immune response. If you are experiencing inflammation, IBS symptoms, leaky gut, autoimmune conditions, migraines, fibromyalgia, skin conditions, GERD, anxiety, arthritis, or other chronic conditions you may benefit from this program. Identifying food sensitivities and focusing on your tested non-reactive foods is supported by research and recommended by many doctors and health practitioners. It just makes sense as a place to start while working to restore health and balance physically and mentally.
Do you suspect adverse food reactions or have a chronic health condition effected by inflammation, impaired immune system, or leaky gut? Having worked extensively with this test and protocol since 2006, I can say it is one of the most productive personalized strategies to help identify and remove reactive foods and plan meals based on non-reactive foods. Clients that follow the Leap MRT protocol effectively reduce inflammation and calm their immune system while restoring a healthy gut microbiome. Overall health is positively improved. Working with a Certified Leap Therapist (CLT) specializing in the nuances of removing tested reactive foods and chemicals is essential to the success of this program.
Getting Started and Leap MRT Program Details:
Scheduling your consult and getting tested is the first step (I will set up your labwork). Office (817) 868-9388.
As results arrive, we will schedule your first appointment to get started on phase one of your personalized program. At this time we will also schedule your 3 follow-up appontments to continue through phase two and three of this protocol/program. During our work together we will also take into consideration your individual health concerns and your personalized health recommendations as well.
Most people report feeling improvement between days 10 and 21. However for most, improvements occur over the course of the 3 month program and beyond.
Studies show this food as medicine approach most often reduces other treatment needed.
(2) Spectracell Laboratory including Comprehensive Micronutrient Testing andTelemere Testing. Both wonderfully informative tests. I would never want to be without them in my work.
Micronutrient Test - Micronutrient testing measures how micronutrients are actually functioning within your white blood cells. This test allows nutritional assessment for a broad variety of clinical conditions, general wellness and the prevention of chronic conditions / diseases including arthritis, cancer, cardiovascular risk, chronic fatigue, depression, diabetes, digestive conditions, immunological disorders and metabolic disorders. Learning if or which nutrients are deficient or borderline gives us the opportunity to better define your nutrition recommendations. www.spectracell.com
Telemere Test - Telomeres are sections of DNA at the end of each chromosome that serve as a cap to your genetic material. Shorter telomeres imply a shorter life span for a cell. Poor diet and chronic stress increases oxidative stress in our body. Excessive oxidative stress will shorten telemere length faster. www.spectracell.com
3) Diagnostic Solutions - GI Microbial Assay Plus stool test. Very useful…. “The GI-MAP comprehensive stool test evaluates your DNA and provides practitioners a diagnostic tool that offers unmatched insight into a patient’s unique microbiome. The GI-MAP stool analysis evaluates the DNA of the organisms living within the gut using the most advanced qPCR technology for results you can rely on. www.diagnosticsolutionslab.com
