Lab tests we recommend:

-Cancer Profile: The cancer assessment provides evidence of 20 types of cancer

-Nutrient and Toxic Metals

-Vitamin D

-The Estronex Profile: measures six important estrogen metabolites, and ratios, including:

The "Good" Estrogen

• 2-hydroxyestrone (2-OHE1) - high levels of 2-OHE1 are ideal to reduce cancer growth.
• 2-hydroxyestradiol (2-OHE2) - shown to exhibit anti-carcinogenic effects.
• 2-methoxyestrone (2-OMeE1) - OMeE1 has shown to have anticancer effects and is ideal in high levels.
• 4-methoxyestrone (4-OMeE1) - as a non-cancerous metabolite, OMeE1 generally does not require treatment at high levels in the body.

The "Bad" Estrogen

• 4-hydroxyestrone (4-OHE1) - considered a "bad" estrogen, 4-OHE1 levels should be low, as high levels may react negatively with damaged DNA.
• 16-á-hydroxyestrone (16á-OHE1) - also considered a "bad" estrogen, 16á-OHE1 in high levels may encourage tumor development.

The Ratios

• 2-OHE:16á-OHE1 (2:16 ratio) - 2:16 ratios less than 2.0 indicate increasing long-term risk for breast, cervical, and other estrogen sensitive cancers. Importantly, nutritional interventions can help raise Estronex 2:16 ratios and decrease long-term risk. Studies also indicate that this risk is modifiable!
• 2-OHE1:2-OMeE1 - a high level of 2-OHE1:2-OMeE1 may also indicate imbalanced estrogen metabolism and low activity in the COMT gene. Evaluation of methylation activity is recommended.
