As a functional diagnostics laboratory, Precision Point Diagnostics has always offered testing solutions that look for the root cause of conditions and that follow the progression of disease from initial triggers to systemic impact on the body. An added feature is all of the analytes can be collected at home by the patient when ordered by a qualifying practitioner! No phlebotomist necessary! Our newest offering examines the interplay of oxidative stress with markers of gut function and dysbiosis. Analytes tested are:
sIgA
Zonulin IgM/IgA/IgG
LPS IgM/IgA/IgG
Total Glutathione
F-2 Isoprostane
8-OHdG
Taken together, these analytes trace the path of gut perturbation influenced by oxidative stress, inflammation in the gut and systemically, and the weakening of tight junctions between cells in the intestines (“leaky gut”) in a patient. Having this sort of comprehensive surveillance of gut and oxidative health together can be a game changer for diagnosis and treatment of some of the most difficult to analyze root causes in a patient.
In addition, this test is available bundled with our best-selling P88-DIY Dietary Antigen Test, which adds in initial triggers in the form of food allergens and sensitivities that can set a patient down the path of gut dysbiosis, inflammation, and systemic oxidative damage. Additional analytes added when ordering the P88/Gut-Ox Bundle include 88 foods and four independent immune reactions to each including IgE, IgG, IgG4 and C3d. The P88 portion of the test is also DIY, meaning all analytes for the bundle can be collected at home!
