What are the benefits of diagnostic biochemical tests?

Diagnostic biochemical testing, also called functional testing, can help identify your unique biochemical make-up and it can also identify physiological signs for chronic conditions and degenerative diseases.

Conventional testing normally does not consider other factors of your life that can lead to disease, such as your diet and lifestyle. As the functional test results form part of your health & wellness assessment, it is crucial in creating your personalised nutrition and lifestyle plan.

A functional test normally involves a blood, saliva, urine or stool sample. Most of these tests you can do at home, but occasionally you will need to attend a laboratory.
