INFLAMMATION FUNCTIONAL TESTS
INFLAMMATION FUNCTIONAL TESTS
Mast Cell Activation Functional Test
The Mast Cell Activation Functional Test is a specialised diagnostic tool designed to evaluate the activity and behaviour of mast cells in your body. Mast cells are crucial to the immune system, particularly in allergic reactions and inflammatory processes. This test helps identify mast cell activation disorders, providing insights into excessive mast cell activity symptoms.
Understand your symptoms better with the Mast Cell Activation Functional Test, guiding effective management and treatment strategies for mast cell-related conditions.
What Does it Test For?
Pathogenic bacteria: Harmful bacteria causing diseases.
Beneficial bacteria: Good bacteria essential for gut health.
Opportunistic bacteria: Problematic bacteria when overgrown.
Viruses: Viral infections affecting the gut.
Parasites: Parasitic infections in the gut.
Fungi/Yeast: Fungal overgrowth, including Candida.
Intestinal health markers: Inflammation, immune response, and digestive function markers.
Targeted Conditions
Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS): Diagnoses MCAS by detecting abnormal mast cell activity and mediator release.
Allergic Disorders: Provides insights into allergies and hypersensitivities linked to mast cell activation.
Chronic Inflammatory Conditions: Assesses the role of mast cells in conditions like chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, and interstitial cystitis.
Gastrointestinal Issues: Identifies mast cell-related causes of symptoms like abdominal pain, bloating, and diarrhea.
Skin Conditions: Helps diagnose mast cell involvement in skin disorders like urticaria and atopic dermatitis..
CIRS Functional Test
The CIRS Functional Test is a comprehensive diagnostic tool designed to evaluate Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS), a condition often triggered by exposure to biotoxins such as mould. This test measures a range of biomarkers and immune responses to identify the presence and severity of CIRS, providing insights into chronic inflammation and its impact on overall health.
Detect and manage Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome with the CIRS Functional Test, guiding personalised treatment strategies for improved health and quality of life.
What Does it Test For?
Biotoxin Exposure: Assesses markers indicating exposure to mould and other biotoxins.
Inflammatory Markers: Measures levels of cytokines, C-reactive protein (CRP), and other inflammation-related substances.
Immune Function: Evaluates immune system activity and dysregulation.
Genetic Susceptibility: Tests for genetic markers that increase vulnerability to CIRS.
Hormonal Imbalance: Analyses the impact of chronic inflammation on hormones, including cortisol and thyroid hormones.
Targeted Conditions
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: Identifies CIRS as a potential underlying cause of chronic fatigue.
Cognitive Issues: Provides insights into memory problems, brain fog, and other cognitive symptoms associated with CIRS.
Respiratory Problems: Diagnoses respiratory symptoms linked to mould exposure and biotoxins.
Gastrointestinal Distress: Assesses the impact of chronic inflammation on digestive health.
Joint and Muscle Pain: Identifies inflammatory causes of chronic pain and muscle weakness.
Holman Omega-3 Test
The Holman Omega-3 Test is a diagnostic tool designed to measure omega-3 fatty acids in your blood. Omega-3 fatty acids are crucial for cardiovascular health, brain function, and overall well-being. This test provides a detailed analysis of your omega-3 status, helping to optimise your dietary intake and improve health outcomes.
Optimise your health with the Holman Omega-3 Test, guiding personalised dietary strategies to enhance cardiovascular, brain, and overall health.
What Does it Test For?
Omega-3 Index: Measures the percentage of EPA and DHA in red blood cell membranes, comprehensively assessing omega-3 levels.
Omega-6 to Omega-3 Ratio: Evaluates the balance between omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, indicating potential inflammatory risks.
Individual Fatty Acids: Analyses specific fatty acids, including EPA, DHA, and ALA, to determine your precise omega-3 status.
Total Fatty Acid Profile: Provides an overview of your blood’s complete fatty acid profile.
Targeted Conditions
Cardiovascular Health: Assesses omega-3 levels crucial for heart health, reducing the risk of heart disease.
Brain Function: Provides insights into omega-3 status linked to cognitive function, mental health, and neuroprotection.
Inflammatory Disorders: Identifies imbalances that may contribute to inflammatory conditions such as arthritis and autoimmune diseases.
Metabolic Health: Evaluates the impact of omega-3 levels on metabolism, aiding in the management of diabetes and weight-related issues.
Overall Well-Being: Supports general health by ensuring optimal omega-3 levels for cellular function and systemic health.
