Labs to Consider For Whole Body Lyme/Mold Treatment
We recommend whole body functional medicine lab testing. If you are a clinician, we suggest setting up accounts with the companies listed below. If you are not a clinician, we recommend talking to your clinician about the tests below.
01.
Lyme Disease
- Many Species of Borrelia Tested for
- IgG, IgM and PCR Testing
- Coinfection Testing PCR
- Coinfection Testing IgG/IgM
- Opportunistic Infections PCR
- Opportunistic Infections IgG/IgM
- Vibrant Wellness: To Make An Account as a Clinician Go HERE
02.
Chronic Insect Infections
- We recommend using both testing mechanisms and treating also based upon symptoms that are associated with the various insect borne infections. Testing mechanisms still need large improvements. We use Vibrant Wellness for this test. Details are explained under the Lyme Disease section on the left.

03.
Mold Markers
- HLA-DR, TGFB-1, MMP-9
- While many people are using urinary mycotoxin tests, these tests have important limitations. If a healthy person comes across mold toxins, the mold toxins will end up in the urine as this is a normal part of detox. Therefore, urinary mycotoxin tests will show elevation in both those with mold illness as well as those having a healthy detox response. For this reason, we like the Shoemaker markers described above.

04.
Quicksilver Toxic Metal Testing
- Two Testing Options: The Mercury Tri- Test and the Blood Metals Test
- Mercury Tri-Test: The patented, Mercury Tri-Test is the most comprehensive mercury test available. It is the only mercury test which will determine your inorganic (dental amalgams/environmental) and methyl mercury (diet/fish). In addition, will tell you how well your kidneys and liver are detoxifying mercury.
- Blood Metals Test:
The Blood Metals Panel tests for 16 nutrient (Calcium, Copper, Lithium, Magnesium, Manganese, Molybdenum, Selenium and Zinc) and toxic elements (Antimony, Arsenic, Cadmium, Cobalt, Lead, Mercury, Silver and Strontium). - Many tests need to have a provocation agent used when testing in order to dump the metals from the cells so they can be measured in the blood. Quicksilver has a testing technology that the test can pick up metals even without the provocation agent.
- Quicksilver Scientific: To make it easy you can set up as a practitioner an account with Evexia Diagnostics where you can order Quicksilver Scientific Labs as well as many other companies on this page. Evexia is a one stop shop for practitioners to order labs from. Normally Evexia does charge a $250 set up fee. This fee can be 100% waved by setting up your Evexia account at this special link HERE.
05.
Food Allergies/Sensitivities
- IgE/IgG/IgG4
- Complement 3 B/D
- Will be adding on IgA soon
- Infinite Allergy Labs
- Clinicians: Go Here to Order
- Not all food allergy and sensitivity testing is the same. One of the things that makes infinite allergies labs unique is that they test for complement and IgG4. The complement system is an inflammatory reaction to food and many tests are not looking for this. IgG4 is a subtype of IgG. When we have really high levels of IgG4 it can be a sign of autoimmune disease. Slight elevations can help to block negative effects of IgEs.
06.
Chronic Hidden Viruses
- Nagalase
- CD 21 Viral receptor for EBV
- Nagalase is a broad spectrum that tests for viruses. If Nagalase is extremely out of range it can be sign of cancer, but slightly out of range is often a sign of chronic viral infections. The mechanism of connection between Nagalase and and viruses is that nagalase is an exam that is secreted by viruses in order to help reduce part of the bodies defenses against pathogens.
- If you are a clinician, order from Nagalase from Health Diagnostics Research Institute
07.
Gut Imbalances
- LPS Antibodies for Intestinal Permeability
- Comprehensive Data Stool Analysis (CDSA)
- Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth Test (SIBO
- Note: The 3 hour lactulose breath test for SIBO is the best one to get. Diagnostic Solutions, Genova and Doctors Data all have good CDSAs.). To make it easy you can set up as a practitioner an account with Evexia Diagnostics where you can order Genova, Diagnostic Solutions and Doctors Data Labs as well as many other companies on this page. Evexia is a one stop shop for practitioners to order labs from. Normally Evexia does charge a $250 set up fee. This fee can be 100% waved by setting up your Evexia account at this special link HERE.
08.
Adrenal/Hormonal Imbalances
- Dutch Complete Panel
- Note: This includes adrenal testing as well as hormonal testing. This lab uses the most up to date testing mechanism.
- Note: If you cannot do this test, next best is a solo salivary cortisol awakening response 30 minutes after awakening.
- Clinicians: To make it easy you can set up as a practitioner with Evexia Diagnostics where you can order DUTCH Tests as well as many other companies on this page. Evexia is a one stop shop for practitioners to order labs from. Normally Evexia does charge a $250 set up fee. This fee can be 100% waved by setting up your Evexia account at this special link HERE.
09.
Nutrient Imbalances
- NutrEval
- Note: This will test for liver detoxification pathways as well as for nutrient imbalances
- If you are a clinician, To make it easy you can set up as a practitioner an account with Evexia Diagnostics where you can order the NutrEval from Genova as well as many other companies on this page. Evexia is a one stop shop for practitioners to order labs from. Normally Evexia does charge a $250 set up fee. This fee can be 100% waved by setting up your Evexia account at this special link HERE.
10.
Standard Blood Markers
- We recommend that you also run a CBC, Vitamin D, TSH, Reverse T3, Anti- TPO, Anti-TG, Free T3, Free T4, CMP, and an ANA. We use a company called Evexia for these markers. If you are a practitioner interested in setting up an Evexia Account (and getting the $250 set up fee waved), click the set up button below.
- We recommend doing these through Evexia Diagnostics. As we mentioned, Evexia is a one stop shop for practitioners to order from. To avoid the set up fee, set your Evexia Account up at this link HERE.
13.
Testing Your Home for Mold
- One of the biggest mistakes we see with people is testing their house using random professionals that do not know anything about mold illness. Case after case people tell us their house is fine, but they are still sick. Good quality mold testing for the home is ESSENTIAL.
- Environbiomics offers a great testing solution and looks not only for mycotoxins, but for endotoxins that are also found in toxic homes. Endotoxins can often times be as much as the problem as mycotoxins.
- Order the Hertsmi-2 plus endotoxins test or the ERMI plus endotoxins test.
- To order go: HERE.
11.
Other Testing Considerations
- For those with MCAS, serum tryptase is recommended. In addition, you can run a KIT mutation allele specific (D816V) Test with a follow up bone marrow biopsy to look for primary type MCAS, which involves a genetic anomaly. Additionally, we can run a Serum Diamine Oxidase which can help with other histamine issues.
- To make it easy you can set up as a practitioner an account with Evexia Diagnostics where you can order through lab corp to get your serum tryptase run. Evexia is a one stop shop for practitioners to order labs from. Normally Evexia does charge a $250 set up fee. This fee can be 100% waved by setting up your Evexia account at this special link HERE.
12.
Pyroluria
- Lab testing is possible but frequently is not performed correctly. The sample needs to be taken by urine and kept completely dark even by the lab. Often this step is not done correctly and the test is invalidated.
- HDRI is a lab that does a great test for Pyroluria. Please make sure to collect the urine sample in a dark room and to cover the cup with aluminum foil before leaving the room in order to keep the sample viable.
- Another component that makes HDRI such a good company to use for pyroluria testing is that they add ascorbic acid to their urine containers for the KPU test. This is very important in terms of oxygen scavenging and is important for the validity of the sample.
- Clinicians can order the kryptopyrrole test from HDRI by going HERE.
- Alternatively, there is a questionnaire that can be taken that does a pretty decent job of suggesting if pyroluria is a possibility. You can click on the button below to download the questionnaire.
