Autism Lab Tests

Autistic Spectrum Recovery 

This comprehensive testing program for autism includes Basic Testing plus 8 special tests:

Basic Tests

1) Comprehensive Organix

A comprehensive profile that provides vitamin mineral deficiencies, amino acid insufficiency, oxidative damage and antioxidant sufficiency markets, assesses detoxification insufficiency, markers for overgrowth of yeast and bacteria

2) Amino acids

Amino acids make up the proteins in every tissue of the body.  They play a role in nearly every chemical process production, formulation of bones, tendons, antibodies, and regulation of enzymes and blood transport.

3) Nutrient and Toxic Elements

Some elements can accumulate in tissues causing toxic effects.  Metal toxicity is a significant environmental health concern.  Toxins such as cadmium, mercury, arsenic lead can cause considerable damage to the brain and nervous system. 

Special Tests

4) Food Antibodies

This test identifies delayed food allergies that can contribute to many different health problems triggering many different symptoms to a variety of problems.

5) GI fx

Gastrointestinal function is very important. The intestinal tract contains significant amounts of bacteria some beneficial, some neutral, and some harmful. Balancing beneficial microbial flora in the gut is key in digestion, nutrient usage, and ridding the body of waste and pathogens. Poor digestion and malabsorption can lead to immune dysfunction, nutritional insufficiencies, mental/emotional disorders, and autoimmune diseases.

GI Effects use DNA analysis to identify microbiota with 100% accuracy including anaerobes, a previously immeasurable area of the gut environment. Microbial DNA analysis improves the accuracy of results and includes both aerobes and anaerobes. Anaerobes comprise over 95% of the bacteria in the gut and are difficult to detect with old culture methods.

6) Fatty Acids
Evidence of adverse effects of fatty acid deficiencies has led sharply to increased assumption of fatty acid supplements.   The results provide the calculations to establish optimal balance.  Trans fatty acids (bad oils) are also measured.

7) Porphyrins Profile
Porphyrins Profile results indicate biomarkers of toxic effects on heme biosynthetic pathway and proper function of many proteins for oxygen transport, energy production, and detoxification. 

8) Neopterin/Biopterin

Neopterin and biopterin are by-products of the redox reactions involving tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4). BH4 functions as a cofactor for the enzymes responsible for the production of monoamine neurotransmitters (ephinepherine, norepinephrine, DOPA, serotonin), and as a cofactor in nitric oxide production.

Low biopterin levels may reflect insufficient BH4 status. Restricted BH4 cofactor availability has been suggested as an etiologic factor in Autism.

Neopterin is a marker of inflammation, allowing detection and monitoring of inflammatory processes. The origin of the inflammation may be the small intestine pathology that so often requires treatment in children with Autism Spectrum Disorders.

9) Hair nutrient and toxic elements
Hair nutrient and toxic elements this report has a long history of successful use in detecting chronic  exposure to toxic heavy metals in humans because hair concentrates heavy metals several hundred fold above concentrations in blood.   Chronic levels in hair reflect early patterns before signs and symptoms occur.

10) Adrenal stress
This test is a measure of an individuals response to stress.   It is also an important tool for pointing to adrenal imbalances that may be impacting health.

11) Detoxification capacity test

The "Lab Test Me" Health and Wellness Program is an all-inclusive six month program that offers individuals a way to determine their personal biochemical blueprint through laboratory testing at CLIA certified labs. The program includes weekly educational support, laboratory testing, computerized interpretations and customized nutrients tailored to the laboratory test results.

After enrolling in your personalized "Lab Test Me" Health and Wellness Program, the first step entails filling out and scoring forms and questionaires, which can be done with or without the assistance of your "Lab Test Me" wellness coach. Next, laboratory test kits will be sent directly to your home. The kits will have instructions and the staff will help you complete the tests if you have any questions. The testing samples are then placed in the prepaid mailers and mailed directly to the laboratory.

"Lab Test Me" will be notified when the test results are completed (usually within 2 weeks), and you will receive a copy. This strictly confidential information is fed into our computer which compares your information to that of thousands of others who were also tested, took supplements and did very well. The computer generates a suggested protocol which is checked by one of our independent professional consultants for accuracy. Then a teleconference interpretation consultation will be scheduled with one of our wellness coaches to go over the suggested supplementation schedule point by point.

At the completion of the interpretation consultation the
6-month, customized Nutrient PAKs are ordered and you should receive them in 10-14 days. Often, some nutrients are suggested before the PAKs are ready as there are some recommended supplements which cannot fit into the PAKs. A few lifestyle changes (e.g., drinking enough clean water) are usually recommended too.

Once you receive your nutrient PAKs, you will be advised to take 1 PAK twice a day (10 individualized capsules/tablets per PAK, computer-formulated based on your personal testing results). A support session will be scheduled to begin the next phase of your program. The Weekly Support Sessions with your Wellness Coach are designed to help you through the six-month program of nutritional restoration for overall health and wellness.
