One of the most significant changes in the medical world is the introduction of affordable, easily-available specialized testing. What this process does is gives our medical staff incredible amounts of data to use when creating programs and deciding how to best serve our patients.
Our team offers an array of specialized blood testing, which helps to accurately determine what underlying disorders or diseases may be preventing patients from losing weight and feeling healthy. These tests offer an in-depth and holistic overview of the patient’s general state of health.
The providers at Dr. Pacholec Wellness & Weight Loss utilize many different blood tests that focus on identifying anti-aging biomarkers to indicate the presence and level of inflammation in the body, such as C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukins, and liver fibrosis. These tests help in assessing chronic inflammation, which is linked to various age-related diseases like cardiovascular conditions, diabetes, and certain cancers.
The CardioIQ panel is an advanced blood test that assesses a comprehensive range of cardiovascular risk factors beyond standard lipid profiles, including lipoprotein particle numbers and sizes, apolipoproteins, and inflammatory markers like hs-CRP. In the context of anti-aging medicine, this panel provides critical insights into an individual’s cardiovascular health, which is essential for preventing age-related heart diseases.
The ALCAT Cellular Micronutrient Assay & Methyl Detox Panel is a specialized test that evaluates cellular reactions to various nutrients, chemicals, and environmental factors, along with assessing detoxification pathways involving methylation. In the realm of anti-aging medicine, this panel is crucial for identifying nutrient deficiencies, food sensitivities, and impaired detoxification processes that can accelerate aging and contribute to chronic diseases.
Our anti-aging blood panel tests for vitamin D3, liver fibrosis index panel, hemoglobin A1C, CMP, CBC, lipid panel and TSH levels. This panel allows for personalized interventions that can optimize health, prevent age-related diseases, and promote a longer, healthier lifespan. Regular monitoring helps in fine-tuning treatments and lifestyle changes to support the body's longevity and vitality.
A comprehensive thyroid blood panel is vital in longevity medicine for both men and women, as it evaluates thyroid function, which is key to regulating metabolism, energy levels, and overall health. By measuring thyroid hormones like TSH, T3, and T4, along with thyroid antibodies, this panel can detect imbalances or Hashimoto's Disease that may contribute to weight gain, fatigue, mood disorders, and other age-related issues. Early detection and management of thyroid dysfunction can help maintain optimal metabolic function, enhance well-being, and support a healthier aging process.
The ALCAT CNA+Methyl Detox panel plays a crucial role in longevity medicine by assessing food sensitivities, chemical intolerances, and methylation pathways, which are essential for detoxification and overall health. For both men and women, understanding how the body reacts to various substances and how it processes toxins can help prevent inflammation, chronic disease, and accelerated aging. By personalizing diet and lifestyle based on these insights, this panel supports optimized health, improved detoxification, and a more effective approach to healthy aging.
The ALCAT food sensitivity panel is essential in longevity medicine, as it identifies individual reactions to foods that may trigger inflammation, digestive issues, and other chronic health problems. By pinpointing specific food sensitivities, this panel allows for the personalization of diets to reduce inflammation, improve gut health, and prevent conditions that accelerate aging. Tailoring nutrition based on these insights can enhance overall well-being, support immune function, and promote a longer, healthier life.
Specialized blood testing at Dr. Pacholec Wellness & Weight Loss may include testing for food sensitivities and micronutrient levels. These types of comprehensive tests can detect cellular deficiencies and help create individualized dietary recommendations and improve longevity.
