Functional Tests
Bloodwork
Transformation Clinic uses comprehensive blood testing as part of an individualized, evidence-informed approach to your health.
Blood tests can provide valuable insight into areas such as nutrient status, thyroid function, blood sugar regulation, cardiovascular health, iron status, hormones, inflammation, liver and kidney function, and overall health.
Dried Hormone Urine Test
Hormones play an important role in energy, metabolism, menstrual health, mood, sleep, fertility, and overall wellbeing.
At Transformation Clinic, hormone testing can provide a deeper look at your individual hormonal patterns and help guide a more personalized approach to care. Hormone testing can also help you assess how hormone replacement therapy is working, and how you are metabolizing your hormones.
Cortisol Awakening Response (CAR)
The Cortisol Awakening Response is a measure of how cortisol changes during the first part of the day after waking. Cortisol naturally follows a daily rhythm, with levels typically rising after awakening before gradually declining throughout the day.
At Transformation Clinic, CAR testing can provide insight into daily cortisol patterns and the body's stress-response regulation. Testing may be considered when exploring concerns related to stress, sleep, energy, mood, or changes in daily rhythms.
Comprehensive Stool Analysis
A Comprehensive Stool Analysis provides a detailed look at digestive and gastrointestinal health by assessing multiple aspects of the gut environment.
Depending on the test, analysis may include digestive function, leaky gut beneficial and pathogenic microorganisms, yeast, parasites, intestinal inflammation, immune markers, and other indicators of gut function.
Testing may be considered for concerns such as bloating, gas, irregular bowel movements, abdominal discomfort, food sensitivities, or persistent digestive symptoms.
Oral Microbiome
Your oral microbiome is a complex community of microorganisms that plays an important role in oral health. Oral microbiome testing provides a detailed look at the bacteria present in your mouth, helping identify microbial patterns that may be associated with oral health and disease.
By understanding your unique oral microbiome, you can gain personalized insights to support informed conversations with your dental or healthcare professional and develop a more targeted approach to maintaining a healthy mouth.
Vaginal Microbiome
The vaginal microbiome is a dynamic community of microorganisms that plays an important role in vaginal health. Vaginal microbiome testing provides insights into the microorganisms present and their relative balance, helping identify patterns that may be associated with vaginal health and common concerns.
Vaginal microbiome testing can help support conditions, such as bacterial vaginosis, persistent yeast infections, recurrent UTIs, STIs and other complaints.
Immunological Tests
Immunological testing assesses components and activity of the immune system to provide insights into immune function and potential immune-related conditions.
Immunological tests evaluate antibodies, immune cells, inflammatory markers, or other immune responses. These tests can support the investigation of symptoms, help identify immune system abnormalities.
Food Sensitivity Test
Food sensitivity testing can provide insights into how your body may respond to certain foods and help identify potential patterns associated with digestive or other food-related symptoms.
Food sensitivity & food allergy testing looks at:
IgG Food Sensitivity
IgA Food Sensitivity
IgE Food Allergy testing
Celiac Testing
Celiac disease testing helps assess whether the immune system is reacting abnormally to gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. Blood tests can look for specific antibodies associated with celiac disease and may help determine whether further evaluation is needed.
Testing can be particularly relevant for individuals experiencing persistent digestive symptoms, unexplained nutrient deficiencies, or other signs associated with celiac disease.
Neurotransmitter Test
Neurotransmitter testing provides insights into levels or patterns of neurotransmitters and their metabolites, which are involved in communication throughout the nervous system.
Neurotransmitter testing can look at how these metabolites influence mood, sleep, stress, focus, and overall neurological function.
Neurotransmitter testing may provide greater insight into conditions such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, and neurological diseases.
Organic Acid Tests
(OAT)
Organic acid testing evaluates a range of organic acids produced through metabolic processes in the body. The results may provide insights into patterns related to energy production, nutrient metabolism, oxidative stress, and other biochemical pathways.
OAT can offer additional information when investigating complex or persistent symptoms and may help guide further clinical assessment. OAT has been used to help treat many conditions, such as - ADHD, Autism, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Mold, Mood disorders, diabetes, & mitochondrial dysfunction more
Methylation Testing
Methylation testing provides insights into genetic and biochemical pathways involved in processes such as DNA regulation, neurotransmitter metabolism, and nutrient utilization.
Depending on the test, it may assess genetic variants or biomarkers associated with methylation pathways. Results can help provide a more personalized understanding of individual biochemical factors and may support informed discussions around nutrition and health.
Mold + Mycotoxins
Mold and mycotoxin testing can provide information about potential exposure to mold or fungal metabolites.
Testingcan assess environmental samples or biological markers associated with mycotoxins. Testing can be considered when there is concern about possible exposure and may provide additional information to support a broader assessment of environmental and health factors.
Heavy Metals
Heavy metals testing assesses levels of metals such as lead, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium in the body.
Testing may be considered when there is a known or suspected exposure through environmental, occupational, dietary, or other sources. Results can help identify potential metal exposure and support how it could be potentially affecting your health.
Environmental Pollutants
Environmental pollutant testing can provide insights into exposure to a range of chemicals and contaminants found in air, water, food, household products, and other environmental sources.
Depending on the test, it may assess biomarkers associated with exposure to substances such as pesticides, solvents, plastics, or other environmental chemicals. Results can help identify potential exposure patterns and support informed discussions about reducing environmental risks and protecting overall health.
