Viruses are intracellular parasites, meaning that they grow within living cells and live off of the cells. Viruses are a natural part of our ecosystem and we have adapted to use them in a beneficial manner within our body.

However, viruses can also be a major disease causing agent when we encounter them in very high amounts or if our immune system is compromised. Typically it is a combination of both of these factors that allows viruses to become a problem within our body.

Viruses can cause disease by compromising our immune system and altering the genetic material within the cells they have hijacked. Viruses can also be a major trigger for inflammation and are responsible for a number of diseases such as HIV, cold sores, the flu, measles, chickenpox, shingles and more. They are also known to be a significant contributing factor in the development of certain types of cancer.

Testing For Viruses:

A viral test is performed to find out how the body’s immune system is reacting to various viruses. There are several types of tests to look for viruses. These include:

Antibody Testing: Antibodies are made by the body’s immune system to fight specific viral infections. The antibodies work by attaching to a the cell infected by the virus and destroying the cell with the virus inside.

If the antibodies to the specific virus are elevated in the blood than it is a sign the person had an infection. IgM testing would be more recent infection and IgG would indicate an infection in the past.

Antigen Testing: Viral antigens (VA) are tags that are given to the surface of cells infected by viruses. These tags allow for easier detection by the body’s immune system. A viral antigen test is done on a sample of tissue that may be infected.

Antibodies that would attach to the specific antigen being tested are applied with specific markers (dye or a tracer) so they can be seen. The tagged antibodies can be seen with a special light. If the attached antibodies are seen attached to the tissue than it is a sign that tissue is infected by the virus being tested for.

When I Use This Test:

I use this test when the individual has symptoms associated with a viral infection such as chronic pain or fatigue. On more preliminary labs, I should see an elevation of lymphocytes above 40% on the complete blood count (CBC).

A history of chronic pain or fatigue and increased lymphocytes on the CBC would be positive indicators that this test is warranted to analyze what virus may be impacting the individual’s health and if there was a positive than we would begin an anti-viral protocol.

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.
