Nourish
Test
To initiate the Ceremonee Nutritional Plan, we begin with comprehensive evaluation panels conducted by a fully certified lab. The panels provide a complete nutritional analysis for the most effective holistic plan development. We only develop a nutritional plan after analyzing your nutritional deficiencies, food sensitivities, Candida levels, hormone levels and vitamin profiles. We generally recommend testing for the following:
YEAST & BACTERIA LEVELS
Abnormally high levels of these microorganisms can cause or worsen behavior disorders, hyperactivity levels, movement disorders, and fatigue and immune function.
Many people with chronic illnesses and neurological disorders often secrete abnormal organic acids. The cause of these high levels may be oral antibiotic usage, high sugar diets, immune deficiencies and genetic factors.
CANDIDA OVERGROWTH
Candida problems are caused when the benign yeast form ‘Candida albicans’ mutates into its fungal form. Candida can take over sections of the intestinal wall causing numerous symptoms.
As it grows out of balance, Candida produces toxins that create holes in the intestinal lining, thus leading to leaky gut syndrome. After entering the blood, Candida causes an inflammatory immune system response. A wide range of behavior disorders have been linked to Candida, including autism, multiple sclerosis, depression and chronic fatigue. Use of antibiotics, oral contraceptives, chemotherapy and anti-inflammatory steroids greatly increase susceptibility to Candida.
GLUTEN SENSITIVITY
This test determines the inability to digest wheat, rye, barley, milk and other glutens.
These undigested proteins labeled ‘peptides’ are associated with gastrointestinal, neurological and neuro-developmental disorders.
HORMONE LEVELS
Hormones are essential for our overall well-being.
An imbalance of any one hormone can throw the physical and mental health out of balance, causing aggravating and serious health problems.
HEAVY METAL TOXICITY
Heavy metals toxicity is a growing threat to our health and the development of our children. It is caused by increased air, water and land pollution, and industrial chemicals and atmospheric radiation.
High levels of toxic metals deposited in body tissues and subsequently the brain, cause developmental and neurological disease.
Our comprehensive research-based clinical laboratory testing also tests for nutritional factors in chronic illnesses such as autism, ADHD, fibromyalgia, and gastrointestinal and neuropsychiatric disorders.
We are dedicated to assisting clients in achieving their maximum potential through quality laboratory testing.
We provide a variety of metabolic tests including those for immune deficiency, amino acids, essential fatty acids, glutathione levels, inflammation, genetic SNPs, and food allergies.
The labs we work with provide the most reliable, comprehensive, and understandable scientific results, using the latest technology and proven techniques.
