Functional Medicine Tests in India

Hello Guys,

Hope you all are doing great.

After having my health further deteriorated by Lily Kiswani and Shabnam Kar I continued my study in the matters of health. Before visiting these two "doctors" I was able to sleep for 7-8 hours everynight, after visiting them and taking their "advices" I sleep less than 4 hours everynight and I constantly wake up at 3 AM everynight.

I learned about a few tests which the American Doctors do that are not available in India, atleast in my searching. I urge any readers to let me know in the comments otherwise.

1. Leaky Gut Test : This test checks for zonulin and occludin (particles of small intestine) in the bloodstream. When a leaky gut is present these protiens called zonulin and occludin are found in the blood stream. So this is a blood test that confirms a leaky gut. This is not a necessary test as the symptoms are enough to diagnose a leaky gut aka Intestinal hyper-permeability.

2. Cyrex Food Sensitivity Test : This test many doctors such as Chris Kresser, Ed Beyer, Amy Meyers, and a lot others say is much more accurate than any competition.

3. Organic Acid Urine Test : This test to check various vitamin & minerals in your body and to check the functionality of proper detox pathways such as pooping, peeing, sweating and sneezing.

4. Adrenal Saliva Test:

5. Kryptopyrrole Test: If you have this condition called 'Pyroluria', in which high levels of kryptopyrroles are circulating in the blood, then you are rapidly excreting Zinc, Vitamin B6 & Essential Fatty Acids (E.F.As) from the urine, these minerals help in the formation of Serotonin & Dopamine that are good for the pituitary gland that produces various hormones such as T.S.H.

6. 23 & Me Genetic Testing:

7. GI Map Stool Test: This test detects all the parasites and infections in the digestive tract, from mouth to anus. Presense of these parasites and infections are the leading cause of auto-immune condition ie chronic (long-term) activation of immune system and inflammation. View my tests here.

8. Urine pH:

9. LabCorp Comprehensive Blood Work:

10. Dried Urine Test for Complete Hormones: Here
