Nutrition Testing

As part of our Clinical Nutrition Practice, we offer a number of testing services to help uncover the root cause of issues such as resistance to weight loss, food sensitivities, digestion imbalance, hormone fluctuations, vitamin deficiencies and much more. All tests begin with an initial clinical or remote appointment where we go through your in depth health history, then help with recommending tests that may benefit you. Some tests that we have available include:

The ALCAT Food Sensitivity Test - This test will identify any food sensitivities from common foods so that we can get to the root cause of health problems and construct a plan around themMore information available at: https://cellsciencesystems.com/patients/alcat-test/

Blood Sugar Testing - Right in the office, we can access your blood sugar levels and determine fasting glucose as well as glucose reaction to various carbohydrates

Stomach Acidity Testing - On an empty stomach, we give a quick approach to determine what your stomach acidity situation is. Many cases of acid reflux or “heartburn” may be caused by low acidity!

A Note On Pricing: Testing (Sensitivity, etc): At Cost (no markup is included making this significantly cheaper than many other functional practitioners). Certain testing can be recommended to ask your doctor about and may be covered by insurance.

A Note On Insurance: We are happy to accept FSA and HSA as payment (using an applicable debit card). Most FSA and HSA will reimburse for “Nutrition Services” or “Nutrition Coaching” with a doctor’s note. At this time, we do not accept insurance and cannot make any guarantees on coverage, but will provide an itemized receipt via invoice for you to submit to insurance. Food sensitivity testing in many cases is eligible for coverage by FSA and HSA, but please check with your provider!
