MycoTox Mold Profile – Great Plains Laboratory
Mycotoxins – Mold – Toxins
Mycotoxins are metabolites produced by fungi like mold, which can infest buildings, vehicles, and foodstuffs. A majority of mycotoxin exposures are through food ingestion or airborne exposure. This test MycoTOX screens for eleven different mycotoxins, from four species of mold, in one urine sample. It is the most comprehensive and competitively priced mycotoxin test available. Great Plains Lab uses the power of advanced mass spectrometry (MS/MS), which is necessary to detect lower levels of these fungal toxins.

PORPHYRINS PROFILE – Great Plains Lab
PORPHYRINS PROFILE
Porphyrins are generated as the body builds hemoglobin, the compound that carries oxygen in blood cells. Porphyrin (from the Greek word for purple) is made up of four ring compounds joined together, a structure conducive to holding a metal ion in its center, iron in the heme porphyrin of hemoglobin and magnesium in chlorophyll. Small amounts of several porphyrins appear in urine normally. The relative amounts of each porphyrin are altered by certain hereditary diseases and by environmental or nutritional influences. The classic cases of hereditary porphyria displayed highly colored urine and skin eruptions and neurological symptoms of mania and “madness.”$345.00 -

Urine Porphyrin Testing – Doctors Data (Test Kit Urine)
Porphyrins are proteins involved in the formation of heme measured in urine. Heme is essential for the proper function of many proteins including oxygen transport, energy production, and detoxification. Proper porphyrin production is essential for our body’s capacity to detoxify toxins.
Porphyrins are particularly well suited for evaluating heavy metal toxicity. The heme pathway is a constantly-changing metabolic pathway that is active in almost every cell of the body. Disturbances in this pathway may cause an accelerated accumulation of porphyrins. It is important to know that these specific enzymes are produced in the heme pathway and are found all over the body and are highly sensitive to the presence of various toxins, creating the large accumulation of porphyrins in the pathway.

- Monitor parathyroid functioning since PTH is essential for vitamin D activation.
- Screening for those who are at high risk of deficiency that may results in osteoporosis or other endocrine disorders.
- Monitor disease processes that interfere with fat absorption, such as cystic fibrosis and Crohn disease. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin and is absorbed from the gut.

Vitamin D 25-Hydroxy
This blood test measures Vitamin D 25 (OH) levels. Vitamin D, known as the “sunshine vitamin.” Vitamin D is a fat-soluble prohormone that the body can synthesize as Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) when the skin is exposed to ultraviolet-B (UBV) rays from the sun. Vitamin D is needed for strong bones and teeth, Vitamin D helps your body absorb the amount of calcium and phosphorus it needs. It also has other roles in the body, including modulation of cell growth, neuromuscular and immune function, and reduction of inflammation.
