Auto-Immune Reactivity Panel

autoimmuneheader2

As a practicing clinician, I see so many individuals with auto-immune conditions. Most of these have never been diagnosed and are unaware that the cause of their health problems is related to auto-immunity.

Most individuals with chronic inflammatory conditions have one or often times more auto-immune processes going on. In functional medicine, it is conservative to treat every patient as an auto-immune case because if we dig deep enough we will most likely find elevated anti-bodies somewhere.

The Auto-Immune Chain Reaction:

Studies have shown that those who test positive for one auto-immune condition will test positive for others as well. It is also well established in the literature (although not widely known) that these auto-antibodies can be raised for many years and even decades before symptoms arise.

By the time these individuals discover they have a problem the areas have often been so beaten down by the immune reaction that it is a very long road to health and healing. I always wish these individuals had been screened and educated many years earlier as they would have avoided a lot of unnecessary suffering.

Major Associations With Auto-Immunity

Cyrex Labs has stepped up and created a great autoimmune screening panel that looks at auto-antibodies to multiple areas of the body. This test is extremely important for anyone with a known gluten sensitivity and leaky gut syndrome.

This is because gluten and other food sensitivities can produce long-term inflammation. This long-term inflammation damages the gut lining and leads to molecules crossing into the blood stream. When large proteins leak out of the gut and into the blood stream it confuses the immune system. This causes the immune system to become hyperactive and promotes an attack on healthy tissues.

Here Is The Chain In Action:

The Best Full-Body Auto-Immune Panel:

Cyrex Labs has developed a fantastic lab to help us identify anti-bodies throughout the body. This way we aren’t chasing them or trying to guess but we will know exactly what is being attacked. This test covers auto-immune anti-bodies directed at the following:

Where Doctors Go Wrong:

Most doctors will only diagnose an auto-immune condition when the individual has chronic symptoms. They will typically only test for auto-immunity in a few areas rather than throughout the body.

For example, someone may have neurological issues such as multiple sclerosis or balance or memory issues and most doctors would never associate leaky gut and auto-antibodies as a contributing factor.

Most doctors would never place osteoporosis in the category of auto-immune conditions because they never test for bone tissue related anti-bodies. Many cases of osteoporosis are actually auto-immune based.

Most doctors do not understand the strong relationship between gluten, food sensitivities, leaky gut and auto-immunity. They typically do not think along the auto-immune chain and fail to adequately test for anti-bodies to various tissues. They also do not know how to treat these conditions within a natural, holistic model.

Why I Love This Test:

This is by far the best auto-immune reactivity test. I love it because both myself and my patient understand what tissues are being attacked. For many, they see the correlation between many of the chronic health conditions they have been suffering with.

It helps me to customize the proper treatment protocols including diet & supplementation to help people overcome their auto-immune condition.

Fortunately, because of the many thousands of newsletter readers and social media followers, my team has been able to network with a great lab distributor and get the best possible pricing for everyone.

The retail value (using market value and insurance based rates) is highly inflated and driving up the cost of health care. This is the old, archaic method that many people are still using and paying way more for insurance and co-pays than they really should be.

Many intelligent people are saving insurance premium dollars and turning to pay by order labs such as DirectLabs and others. These skip the middle man (doctors’ visits) and cut down costs for the patient.

If the test requires blood work you can take your kit to any local lab and have the trained professional take your blood and fill out the kit and send it in the mail.

Urine and blood prick tests can all be done in the comfort of your home and sent into the lab with the mailing slip in your kit. All instructions will be sent to you with the kit. It is a very simple process that most anyone can figure out. The lab also has a customer service phone # if any help is needed.
