Nutrition Consultants of America,
Inc. uses the best laboratories in the country for
our patients. We are able to order laboratory testing
to assess all types of conditions. Many of these
specialized tests can be performed by our patients
from home(except blood). The patient simply follows
the directions for sample collection and then mails
the sample directly to the lab. Results are sent
directly to your doctor and he/she will write a
report based on the results and make recommendations
of what you need to do.
These laboratories check blood,
urine, saliva, hair, and fecal samples. Based upon
the results of any one of these tests, our doctors
will recommend the appropriate nutritional supplements
to improve your health status. Hormone levels, digestive
function, liver detoxification, heavy metal toxicity,
intestinal permeability, oxidative stress profiles,
immune system profiles, and blood chemistries are
just a few of the many profiles/tests that can be
performed. The results obtained from these tests
help our patient's utilize nutritional therapies
more efficiently and effectively.
All new patients must have the
initial laboratory tests done( can be ordered by
clicking on Getting Started on the home page). After
the initial testing, you can order any other specialized
test. Your ordering will be reviewed by your doctor
to assure you that the test is warranted for your
condition. The doctor will then review the results,
providing you with a copy and also write a report
discussing the results and what they mean. Recommendations
will be made with respect to what nutritional supplements
you need to take.
Remember, all specialized tests
carry a price for the test and an additional fee
of $99.00 for the doctor's report and recommendations.
The total cost (test and report)
will need to be paid prior to any test being ordered
by your doctor. You can review all the specialized
tests and their costs by logging into the members
area after your initial testing is completed.
