1. Thyroid Function Blood Testing Panel 2

The Thyroid Function Blood Profile with TSH, T3 and T4 Free is a group of blood tests that includes Free T3, Free T4 and TSH that are often ordered together to help evaluate thyroid gland function and to help diagnose thyroid disorders. The thyroid tests included in a thyroid profile measure the amount of thyroid hormones in your blood. These hormones are chemical substances that travel through the bloodstream and control or regulate your body’s metabolism—how it functions and uses energy.

We recommend a thyroid test for anyone who:
• has a family member with thyroid disease,
• has been diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome
• is a woman in or near menopause,
• has recently given birth,
• has other pituitary or endocrine disease, or
• is experiencing symptoms of thyroid disease.

2. Vitamin D, 25 Hydroxy

Vital to healthy bones. Deficiency can be related to prostate, breast and colon cancers; heart disease, type 1 diabetes and hypertension.

Recent studies in North America and Europe indicate that a staggering 95 percent of people are vitamin D deficient — not surprising given how much time we spend inside.

Sunlight doesn’t just help set your internal clock, it actually nourishes your body by helping it create vitamin D. Classified as a water-soluble vitamin, vitamin D acts more like a hormone, working with the parathyroid hormone to balance calcium in the blood and build strong bones. It also maintains healthy cellular growth and regulates the immune system, which prevents excessive inflammation that can lead to autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, periodontal disease, multiple sclerosis and irritable-bowel diseases.

3. Iron Panel

An iron panel from HealthCheckUSA is a blood screening for the iron overload disease, hemochromatosis. This genetic disorder causes your body to absorb and store too much iron. This extra iron builds up and causes organ damange. An iron profile is important because if hemochromatosis is not treated, these organs can fail. You could even need a transplant.

How does iron work in the body?
A normal person’s body absorbs enough iron through a regular diet. Iron is an essential nutrient, which becomes part of your blood that transports oxygen throughout the body. If your iron profile shows that you have hemochromatosis, your body absorbs more than it needs. There is no natural function to expel this excess iron, and it is typically stored in body tissues.

COMPREHENSIVE THYROID BLOOD TESTING PROFILE with TSH……….$85
The HealthCheckUSA Comprehensive Thyroid Profile with TSH is a group of blood tests that includes Free T3, Free T4 and TSH that are often ordered together to help evaluate thyroid gland function and to help diagnose thyroid disorders. These hormones are chemical substances that travel through the bloodstream and control or regulate your body’s metabolism—how it functions and uses energy.

TSH is produced by the pituitary gland and is part of the body’s feedback system to maintain stable amounts of the thyroid hormones T4 and T3 in the blood.
When concentrations decrease in the blood, the pituitary is stimulated to release TSH. The TSH in turn stimulates the production and release of T4 and T3 by the thyroid gland. Free T4 measures the free, unbound thyroxine levels in your bloodstream. Free T4 is typically elevated in hyperthyroidism, and lowered in hypothyroidism.

Free T3 measures the free, unbound levels of triiodothyronine in your bloodstream. T3 is the active thyroid hormone, also called triiodothyronine, and can be the most important lab you will do. Free T3 is typically elevated in hyperthyroidism, and lowered in hypothyroidism.




OR YOU CAN ORDER THE TESTS BELOW INDVIDUALLY:




ESTRADIOL HORMONE BLOOD TEST…………………………………………$50
Estrogen is a group of hormones primarily responsible for the development of female sex organs and secondary sex characteristics. While estrogen is one of the major female sex hormones, small amounts are found in males. Estradiol (E2) is produced in women mainly in the ovary. In women, normal levels of estradiol provide for proper ovulation, conception, and pregnancy, in addition to promoting healthy bone structure and regulating cholesterol levels. However, in menopause, if you are taking estrogen replacement therapy, you need to know if you are absorbing your medication correctly. The ideal range for estradiol is between 70-114 pg/ml. Less than 50 will have little benefit for supporting bone growth or preventing heart disease, and over 120 can increase your risk for stimulating estrogen sensitive cancers. Your test should be drawn approximately 4 hours after ingesting/applying your estrogen therapy for an accurate interpretation of the results.

If you are an ovulating female, a midcycle blood estradiol over 200 pg/ml is evidence of proper ovulation. If the estradiol response is below 200 pg/ml
on day 14, you may be in perimenopause.



FERRITIN……………………………………………………………………………$40
Iron stores in the body are reflected as serum ferritin, which affects the production of red blood cells in the body. It also affects your blood insulin levels. Chronic inflammatory conditions such as autoimmune hypothyroidism (Hashimoto’s thyroiditis) or Lupus will deplete ferritin levels. Symptoms of low ferritin include a burning tongue, heart palpitations on exertion, depression, poor memory and irritability. Low ferritin levels can affect thyroid hormone synthesis, causing you to feel “hyper” if you are taking any T3 medication. You want a ferritin between 80-100ng/ml to help regulate your insulin, thyroid and adrenal function.



CHOLESTEROL PROFILE…………………………………………………………$40
Getting a coronary screen/lipid panel (cholesterol) is one of the most important tests to gauge your cardiovascular health. A coronary screen/lipid panel measures the amount of fatty substances found in your bloodstream. These fatty substances lead to heart disease, heart attack, and stroke.

With exercise, diet, and medication, the fatty substances measured by your coronary screen/lipid panel can be lowered. HealthCheckUSA is proud to offer a coronary screen/lipid panel because its results can lead to measures that prevent heart disease. If you have concern about your heart health, a coronary screen/lipid panel is integral.

A coronary screen/lipid panel typically includes several tests, like cholesterol (HDL and LDL) and triglycerides. Your doctor will use the results of your coronary screen/lipid panel, along with heredity factors, to develop a treatment plan that can significantly lower your risk of heart disease.

A coronary screen/lipid panel will measure the total cholesterol found in your blood. Cholesterol is the fatty, wax-like substance that is used to make cells, hormones, vitamin D, and bile acids that digest fat. Your body makes all the cholesterol you need–but the foods you eat also have cholesterol. Heredity factors, weight, age, sex, exercise, and stress can affect your levels. A coronary screen/lipid panel helps gauge one’s risk of heart disease.



COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC) with DIFFERENTIAL…………………..$40
Have ever heard doctors on ER or Gray’s Anatomy call for a CBC? A Complete Blood Count with Differential is one of the most commonly ordered tests for routine check-ups and/or physicals. A complete blood count with differential from HealthCheckUSA measures the levels of red blood cells, white blood cells, platelet levels, hemoglobin and hematocrit. Many times it is ordered as a screening test, as an anemia check or as a test for infection. The Complete Blood Count with Differential can used to aid in diagnosing and treating a large number of other conditions.

A CBC with Differential test also measures the amount of white blood cells. Formed in the bone marrow, these cells assist in fighting infection. Elevated white blood cells on a CBC blood test may mean that you currently have an infection. If your CBC with Differential shows low levels, you might have a difficult time fighting an infection.

Vitamin D Deficiency: Additional evidence on importance of Vitamin D

“Vitamin D in the Crossfire”

From Experience Life, June 2006

 

 

While the tried and true advice — seek shade, wear sunscreen, avoid direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. daily — hasn’t changed, recent research indicates that our hyper-vigilance about sun exposure may actually be compromising our body’s ability to maintain healthy levels of vitamin D.

 

We’ve long known vitamin D is essential to building strong bones, but a flurry of emerging studies is linking deficiencies of the sunshine vitamin to a growing list of serious health concerns, including hypertension, diabetes, depression and a variety of cancers. Despite vitamin D also coming from foods like eggs, cod liver oil, fatty fish and fortified products, many Americans, especially those living in cloudier climes, do not get today’s “adequate intakes” for bone health.

Vitamin D Deficiency: Importance of Vitamin D Testing

“Light Rhythms”

From Experience Life, June 2009

 

 

Recent studies in North America and Europe indicate that a staggering 95 percent of people are vitamin D deficient — not surprising given how much time we spend inside.

 

Sunlight doesn’t just help set your internal clock, it actually nourishes your body by helping it create vitamin D.  Classified as a water-soluble vitamin, vitamin D acts more like a hormone, working with the parathyroid hormone to balance calcium in the blood and build strong bones. It also maintains healthy cellular growth and regulates the immune system, which prevents excessive inflammation that can lead to autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, periodontal disease, multiple sclerosis and irritable-bowel diseases. 

 

The Institute of Medicine of the National Academies currently calls for 200 international units (IU) of vitamin D per day for people younger than 50, 400 IU for those 51 to 70, and 600 IU for people 71 and older. But organizations like the American Medical Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics have called on the government to raise those numbers to between 1,000 to 2,000 IU daily.

The Roby Institute Female Series

Category : Women's Health

The Roby Institute: The History

The Roby Institute, founded by Dr. Russell Roby, believes in diagnosing and treating the causes of many chronic conditions and common diseases versus just treating the symptoms. By understanding the cause, they can work toward keeping the ailment from causing a disruption in the patient’s standard of living. The Roby Institute also believes that a lot of these conditions and diseases are actually caused by allergies and hormone imbalances. To determine whether or not this is the case, the patient would need to have a series of tests completed.

The Roby Institute: Female Series Option A

The Female Series Option A is a panel customized for The Roby Institute and specifically for women. The Series includes the following lab tests: Estradiol, Progesterone, Testosterone, DHEA Sulfate, T3 Free, T4 Free and TSH.

TSH, T3 Free and T4 Free are all thyroid tests that help determine whether or not your thyroid is functioning properly. These lab tests can determine whether or not your symptoms are actually symptoms of hyper- or hypothyroidism. Some symptoms of thyroid problems can include: Fatigue and weakness, hair loss, dry and coarse skin, insomnia, and depression.

Estradiol, Progesterone, Testosterone and the DHEA Sulfate tests are done to determine hormonal imbalances, as well as Adrenal function. According to The Roby Institute, common disorders caused by hormonal imbalance are PMS, Weight Problems, Fatigue, Skin Problems, Mood Swings and Diminished Sex Drive.

The Roby Institute: Female Series Option B

The Female Series Option B is another lab test that is customized for The Roby Institute and specifically for women. The Series includes all the tests that are in Option A, as well as a CRP hs, Homocysteine, CBC, Lipid Panel and a Total Metabolic Panel.

Three of these additional lab tests are used to determine a person’s risk of cardiovascular disease, heart attack or stroke. These tests are the CRP hs, the Homocysteine and the Lipid Panel.

The CBC, or complete blood count, is a broad screening test that can check for many different diseases and conditions. The Total Metabolic Panel is also a broad screening tool that is used to evaluate organ function and to check for diseases associated with the malfunction of your organs, such as liver disease, kidney disease and diabetes. Ordering both of these tests can assist a physician in determining your overall state of health.

If you have any questions about The Roby Institute Female Series of lab tests, please email our health testing experts. They are happy to help!
