Food Sensitivity Testing at Guyer Wellness Group in Brevard County Florida: Food sensitivities are something that we do not normally think about but they can affect the results that you get when trying to lose weight or gain muscle. If you are “sensitive” to a food then you are basically allergic to it. This does not mean that you are going to get hives or break into a rash if you eat a specific food but it does mean that the food causes a certain amount of stress on your body which increases cortisol levels and reduces the normal processing food by the digestive system. This same stress response will turn certain foods into fat storing foods that will accelerate the rate at which you gain weight and or slow down your ability to lose belly fat.

We use the FIT( food inflammation test) to pinpoint exactly what foods are helping you get the weight off and keep it off and which foods are packing on the pounds. When you know what to eat, you are now back in the driver’s seat of truly creating the results you want in your body. Common foods which result in the most frequent allergies include Eggs, Dairy, Wheat, Tree Nuts and Soy.

Adrenal, Thyroid & Hormonal Testing at Guyer Wellness Group in Brevard County Florida: Chronic physical, mental, emotional, chemical and or environmental stress takes its toll on the human body and is the key underlying component to many health disorders especially when it comes to hormonal and metabolic health.

This panel is important for both men and women, providing baseline and monitoring information for patients of all ages. It is especially useful in individuals who are experiencing any of the following symptoms:

  • Mood disorders, depression, anxiety

Nutritional Deficiency Testing at Guyer Wellness Group in Brevard County Florida: Vitamins are essential to human life. Depleted levels of nutrients can lead to slowed healing time, decreased metabolic rate, difficulty losing weight, hormonal imbalance and the risk of serious life threatening conditions and disease. Due to today’s standard American diet of highly processed foods, lack of rotating our crops and the heavy use of pesticides and chemicals on our foods the result is depleted soils void of nutrients. As a result, food companies “fortify” foods with nutrients that are often not bioavailable or in the natural form so our body can actually absorb and utilize them for life sustaining activities. When your body is deficient, your health will begin to be compromised, your energy will drop and no matter how much you exercise, you will not lose weight but most importantly, your ability to thrive will be impaired.

Vitamin and nutrition blood tests can detect mineral, iron, calcium and other deficiencies, telling you which vitamins you lack so we can support you with a targeted road map out of deficiency and back to energized health and wellbeing.

Gluten Testing at Guyer Wellness Group in Brevard County Florida: Gluten is a protein that is in common grains such as wheat, rye, and barley, and other less common grains such as spelt, bulgur, semolina, couscous, triticale, graham, kamut and durum flour. It has a glue-like consistency that gives bread its elastic properties. If you are gluten intolerant, your body is unable to digest this glue-like protein. The gluten that is undigested forms deposits on the intestinal walls and your body sends the immune system into the area to kill it. The immune system response creates antibodies that sensitize the body to gluten and cause an inflammatory response. This causes several things to occur: Nutritional Deficiencies, slowed weight loss, increased GI issues such as bloating and the presence of a “wheat belly” regardless of how much exercise, you just can’t get that six pack.

Not everyone needs to be gluten free but for a large percentage of the population, the need is real. Don’t guess with your health, find out with this test that is the most comprehensive test for Gluten that will let you know how to take your health back and optimize your wellbeing.

Many people are inefficient exercisers, with no understanding of what heart rate, intensity or duration would best help them reach their specific goals such as fat burning, endurance training, or cardio conditioning. An initial VO₂ Max test can clarify the precise target heart rates that will enable each individual to exercise more effectively, with less fatigue and fewer injuries.

Periodic retesting provides motivating feedback as the fitness program progresses. Studies show that previously sedentary people training at 75% of aerobic power for 30 minutes, 3 times a week over 6 months increase VO₂ Max an average of 15-20% producing greater cardiometabolic function, weight loss, increased energy and enhanced health.
