Clinical Micro-Nutrient Blood Tests
Are you getting the nutrients you need? We provide clinical nutrient blood tests where we can test for 33 nutrients, amino acids, and anti-oxidants within your blood. 50% of those taking multivitamins are still nutritionally deficient. Dr. Hewitt provides a consultation with this test to offer healthy and natural ways to add vitamins back into your cells through vitamin therapy and proper nutrition. Health insurance covers this test.
Lipoprotein Particle Profile Blood Tests
We provide a new heart health blood test that looks at the particles in your blood and breaks them down to particle components of LDL, VLDL, HDL, cholesterol, triglycerides, with buoyancy and density measurements. Many people don't realize that cholesterol is not the problem with heart health but in fact it is the particle size, density, and oxidation of these blood components. Dr. Hewitt recommends lifestyle changes, including nutrition and exercise after reviewing these results. Health insurance covers this test.
DNA Telomere Blood Tests
How fast are you aging? We provide a new DNA Telomere blood test that looks at the aging portion of your chromosomes. Telomeres are sections of DNA at the end of each chromosome that serve as a cap to your genetic material - similar to the plastic end of a shoe lace. When this begins deteriorating, the aging process is evident at the DNA cellular level.
Bio-identical Hormones
Taking regular hormone replacement therapies (HRT) can raise estrogen to unhealthy levels putting women at risk for breast cancer. Bio-identical hormones are taken orally or on the skin with natural creams. This is a non-invasive approach to hormone levels and do not have any risks associated with cancer. Unlike HRT where you get put on a drug and never tested, bio-identicals are managed monthly with the understanding that you are an individual.
