FUNCTIONAL TESTING

28. Februar 2025

FUNCTIOANL TESTS -

EASY, PRECISE, INDIVIDAL UND INSIGHTFUL


Test, don’t guess – modern functional labtests make it easy to analyze key health markers in a convenient and often non- or minimally invasive way. Whether through dried blood, urine, or saliva samples, these testing methods offer valuable insights into nutrient status, metabolism, or genetic predispositions – and can be done comfortably from home.



WHAT CAN BE TESTED?


  • Nutriet Deficiencies: Dried blood spot tests can reveal levels of vitamins, minerals, omega fatty acids, or amino acids. Just a few drops of blood from a finger prick are applied to a special filter card and analyzed in the lab.
  • Organic Acids in Urine: These tests detect metabolites – by-products of biochemical processes. They provide insights into cellular metabolism, detox capacity, energy production, and potential nutrient deficiencies.
  • Hormone and Stress Profiles: Saliva tests can measure cortisol and melatonin levels – key indicators for stress response, sleep quality, and hormonal balance.
  • Gut Health: A stool sample can reveal the composition of the microbiota, inflammatory markers, and digestive function – all crucial for immune health and nutrient absorption.
  • Genetische Analysen: Modern DNA tests using saliva or dried blood samples provide insights into individual predispositions in areas such as nutrient utilization, detoxification, stress resilience, or athletic performance.


HOW DOES IT WORK?


You'll receive a test kit at home and take your sample yourself (e.g., urine, saliva, or a few drops of blood). Then, simply send it back to the lab using the prepaid envelope. The analysis is carried out by certified laboratories and typically takes around 2–3 weeks.


WHAT ABOUT DATA SECURTY?


Modern labs adhere to the highest standards of data protection. Your samples are analyzed pseudonymously – your health data remains secure and is only accessible to authorized professionals.


🧪🧬✅ Functional lab testing helps you better understand your body and support it in a targeted way – personalized, science-based, and preventive.

Unser Darm ist weit mehr als ein Verdauungsorgan; er ist das Zentrum unseres Wohlbefindens. Hier lebt eine komplexe Gemeinschaft von Mikroben, die unser Mikrobiom bilden. In einem gesunden Darm arbeiten diese Mikroorganismen in Symbiose, um die Verdauung zu unterstützen, Vitamine zu produzieren und das Immunsystem zu regulieren.

STRESSBEWÄLTIGUNG

8. April 2025
Stress kann in zwei Formen auftreten: akut und chronisch. Akuter Stress ist die kurzfristige Reaktion des Körpers auf eine plötzliche Herausforderung oder Bedrohung. Wir sind ständig kleinen, akuten Stressoren ausgesetzt, wie etwa einem engen Zeitplan oder einer unerwarteten Situation, und unser Körper reagiert darauf, um die Situation zu bewältigen.
