Testing

+ Full Blood Testing

Full Circle can run full blood testing for any of the following: genetics, hormones, respiratory, allergy, autoimmune, cardiovascular, carrier screening, diabetes and additional areas.

+ Nutritional Assessment

This test measures the function of 35 nutritional components, including vitamins, antioxidants, minerals and amino acids within our white blood cells. Scientific evidence shows us that analyzing the white blood cells gives us the most accurate analysis of a body's deficiencies.

+ Food Allergy Testing

Researchers estimate that at least 60% of the U.S. population suffers from unsuspected food reactions that can cause or complicate health problems. Symptoms can be extraordinarily diverse, ranging from arthritis to eczema to migraines. In extreme cases, food allergies can lead to anaphylactic shock and death if untreated. Fortunately, most people do not have severe reactions.

+ Gluten Sensitivity Testing

Gluten sensitivity tests look for antibodies and gluten in the stool (fecal antigliadin-IgA antibody). It also looks for antibodies to the tissue transglutaminase enzyme produced by the body when gluten is ingested (fecal anti-tissue transglutaminase-IgA antibody).

+ Heavy Metals Testing

Urine elements are traditionally used to evaluate exposure to potentially toxic elements and wasting of nutrient elements. Additionally, the comparison of urine element concentrations before and after administration of a chelator can be used to estimate net retention of potentially toxic elements. Subsequent urine element analyses, also following the administration of a chelator, are useful for monitoring metal detoxification therapy's efficacy. Results are expressed per 24 hours or creatinine corrected to account for urine dilution effects.

Useful For:

• Toxic Element Exposure
• Alopecia
• Bone Density
• Cardiovascular Disease
• Depression
• Dermatitis or Poor Wound Healing
• Detoxification Therapy
• Fatigue
• Gastrointestinal Symptoms
• Hypertension
• Immune Function
• Impaired Glucose Tolerance
• Inflammation
• Kidney Function
• Nutritional Deficiencies
• Parkinson's-like Symptoms

+ Hormone Testing

Why do we test hormones in saliva? Steroid hormones in the bloodstream are 95-99% bound to carrier proteins, and in this form, are unavailable to target tissues. Saliva testing measures the amount of hormone available to target tissues – the bioavailable amount. For this reason, saliva testing better relates to specific symptoms of excess or deficiency and is a good option for monitoring hormone therapy.
