Functional Testing
There are a use a variety of tests to assess an individual’s nutrient deficiencies, hormone imbalances, gut health, and inflammation levels, among other things. The tests I use and offer include blood tests, urine tests, stool tests, and hair mineral balance testing. With this information, I can design personalized nutrition and lifestyle plans that address specific health concerns and improve overall wellbeing. Functional testing also allows me to track progress over time, adjust interventions as needed, and monitor the effectiveness of treatment plans.
Thus, testing is part of my comprehensive approach to nutrition and health.

Hair Analysis
Hair analysis is a reliable and effective approach to evaluate the body’s mineral content.
It is a safe and extremely precise method to determine excesses, shortages and the overall balance of 29 elements- dietary and toxic – present in our bodies. Hair analysis gives a more precise picture of imbalances than a blood test which only reflects the state at the precise moment in which blood is drawn.
Most importantly with a hair analysis we will be able to analyse the ratio of the most important mineral pairs that affect each other and thus affect our health. The most important mineral pairs that we will be checking are the following:
Calcium (Ca)- Magnesium (Mg)
Sodium (Na) – Potassium (K)
Calcium (Ca) – Potassium (K)
Sodium (Na) – Magnesium (Mg)
Zinc (Zn) – Copper (Cu)

Stool Test
Valuable diagnostic tool for assessing the health of the gastrointestinal system by analyzing the microbiome, identifying pathogens, and measuring zonulin levels. The microbiome analysis provides insights into the balance of beneficial and harmful bacteria, which is crucial for maintaining digestive health and immune function. Pathogen detection in the stool can help diagnose infections caused by bacteria, viruses, or parasites, guiding appropriate treatment. Measuring zonulin levels is particularly important as it serves as a marker for intestinal permeability or “leaky gut,” a condition linked to various health issues including autoimmune diseases, food sensitivities, and chronic inflammation. Stool testing offers comprehensive insights into gut health, aiding in the diagnosis and management of gastrointestinal disorders.
Blood Test
Available also a kit to be done at home with a simple prick test and collecting a few drops, to test food intillerances, hormone levels, thyroid health, and more.
