Lab testing

Clients pay for laboratory testing and supplements, however I can pass on discounts for supplements and in some circumstances I’m able to offer lab tests as clinician (trade) prices. Typical prices of lab tests as of Dec 2024:

  • Genova Diagnostics NutrEval FMV (a comprehensive profile for identifying nutritional deficiencies and insufficiencies): £625.

  • Cambridge Nutritional Sciences FoodPrint 200+ (a food-specific IgG antibody test): £275.

  • Genova Diagnostics GI Effects Comprehensive Profile (a comprehensive stool analysis): £500.

Laboratory testing is advantageous for several reasons, but a lot can be achieved without testing, if the cost is prohibitive.
