it is a vitamin analysis test. is an nd giving you this?

you'd be better off testing, or in addition, a dysbiosis test through metametrix and a fasting hormone test, which can be done at any lab.

Yes, I had it done through my MD who I trust and think she's the greatest. This test is supposeably very reliable. It came back showing B vitamins were low but other then that everything looked good.

Was very lucky my insurance company paid well for this test.

No, my LLMD had me take it. I was wondering what results others had. According to the results, I'm in sorry shape. My B vitamins were low, my glucose interaction was in the danger zone as were my antioxidants. My doctor now wants me to take a bunch of suppliments from Vitamin Research Products. Has anyone heard of them/used these suppliments?

if you mean a company called 'allergy research products' they have a very good rep and credentials.

i've used their supps before, quality stuff.

now i'm using pharamanex brand, as per suggested in dr.b's guidelines (available under search on lymenet homepage).
