Clinical Tests

By testing biomarkers (any measurable marker of the state of health of the body) as opposed to symptoms and traits (though these are considered as well) we can more accurate treat the cause of your condition. Clinical testing allows us to look for these biomarkers and help correct any imbalances.

The body functions amazingly well all on its own... and can even heal or recover from disease or disorders when it has what it needs. Deficiencies and excesses (imbalances to the delicate balance your body needs) though can be harmful and the throw key body systems into chaos. Subtle at first with little niggling symptoms and then more serious disease.

We can measure biomarkers and use these to predict and prevent more serious disease and we can correct imbalances to treat and heal certain symptoms.

Many imbalances and diseases can have similar symptoms, at least at the start. Clinical testing is the best way to target the right problem. Its the clearest, most efficient path to wellness.

Find out what's wrong. Fix it.

It's amazing how well you be after a seemingly insignificant imbalance is corrected.

Some of the more commonly, least talked about ones are imbalances between copper and zinc and their impact on behaviour.

Others include methylation status... affected by a combination of your key genetic enzyme function, and the foods you eat. The right supplements can make you well, the wrong supplements might worsen your condition.

If you are experiencing any disease, whether it be eczema, depression, IBS, bloating, anxiety, ADHD, weight management challenges, addiction, brain fog, frequent coughs and colds, PMS, insomnia... you might have a biochemical imbalance, a nutrition deficiency... or a genetic variation that affects enzyme function... or an allergy that is making your symptoms worse.

Depression can be a symptom of an imbalance. It can have multiple causes, and usually benefits from a holistic approach (therapy, nutrition care, lifestyle support and sometimes medical intervention). If we look for biomarkers that might highlight imbalances we can help provide important tools for the body and brain to repair or recover. For example, in the case of depression there are different types of depression, and often they have different biochemical patterns. If we take a targeted approach to treatment we can often get a better result.

Many people get disillusioned from trying multiple different options, and nothing seems to work.

Don't risk self medicating, or doing a quick internet search or following the latest fad, it's important your nutrition advice is personalised to you based on your current nutrition status. Makes sense right?

If you are stressed, this will only exacerbate whatever you have got going on, as your body uses up important resources in an effort to keep going.

At Healthyr, we prefer not to guess. We like to test and measure, to give you the best chance of being well.

Biomarker testing may also help us prevent disease before it develops.
