Mindsip insights from this episode:
Test for oxidative stress with at-home urine analysis
The Oxidative Stress 2.0 is a simple at-home urine test that measures markers like 8-OHdG to directly assess your body's level of inflammation and DNA damage.
Simplify health insights with user-friendly genetic testing
The 3x4 genetic test provides a simple, 'comic book' style report that makes complex genetic information about health, diet, and exercise easy to understand.
Analyze gut metabolites for accurate health insights
For gut health, prefer tests that analyze actual metabolites (like the Genova GI Effects panel) over DNA-based tests, as they show what your gut is actually doing.
Utilize DUTCH test for comprehensive hormone analysis
Use the DUTCH test, a 24-hour urine analysis, for a more accurate picture of hormone fluctuations and their metabolites than a single blood test can provide.
Reassess thyroid health with optimal TSH levels below 2.0
A truly optimal Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) level should be below 2.0, not the commonly accepted reference range of below 4.0, which may miss underlying issues.
Utilize True Age Diagnostics test to measure biological aging pace
The True Age Diagnostics test is the most verified and accurate way to measure your biological pace of aging, based on what is called Dunedin PACE data.
Utilize Mercury Tri-Test to differentiate mercury types
The Mercury Tri-Test is crucial because it distinguishes between methylmercury from seafood and the more toxic inorganic mercury from environmental sources.
Utilize metabolomics profile for comprehensive at-home health analysis
The Metabolomics profile is a powerful at-home test using urine, blood, and a cheek swab to analyze mitochondrial function, toxins, methylation, and neurotransmitters.
Choose CYREX panel for accurate food allergy testing
The CYREX panel is the best food allergy test because it analyzes both raw and cooked food proteins to avoid the false positives common in other tests.
