Vibrant America is a laboratory with a vast menu of tests designed to aid advanced integrative and functional medicine practitioners in their diagnosis and treatment of chronic and acute health problems.
Vibrant currently offers testing in the following categories:
Intestinal Permeability and Food Sensitivities
Vibrant’s flagship peptide-level test with the most robust panel available for the detection of intestinal permeability, gluten- and wheat-sensitivity, celiac disease, and gluten-mediated autoimmunity.
To assess sensitivity to multiple peptides in corn, including GMO and non-GMO varieties.
To assess sensitivity to commonly consumed gluten-free grains.
To assess sensitivity to 16 high lectin foods and 7 high aquaporin foods.
To assess sensitivity to multiple peptides in cow’s milk dairy.
To assess sensitivity to multiple peptides in non-bovine alternative animal milks.
To assess sensitivity to multiple peptides in both egg yolk and egg white.
To assess sensitivity to multiple peptides in soy, including GMO and non-GMO varieties.
To assess sensitivity to multiple peptides in the most commonly consumed nuts, including those with cross-reactivity to other nuts and legumes.
To assess sensitivity to multiple peptides in the most commonly consumed fish and shellfish.
A whole protein extract test for sensitivity to 209 commonly consumed foods through both IgG and IgA immunoglobulins.
*Food Additives can be added to Food Sensitivity as part of our Food Sensitivity Complete test.
Gastrointestinal
Vibrant’s flagship peptide-level test with the most robust panel available for the detection of intestinal permeability, gluten- and wheat-sensitivity, celiac disease, and gluten-mediated autoimmunity.
A PCR-based test for screening almost 300 bacteria, including 67 pathogens comprising intestinal parasites, worms, fungi, and viruses; relative abundances are displayed at the phylum, family, genus, and species level, and correlated to medical condition risk. The Gut Zoomer now also includes a full functional diagnostic panel measuring calprotectin, pancreatic elastase, beta-glucoronidase, bile acids, short-chain fatty acids, and more!
A screening tool for antibodies that are associated with the autoimmune breakdown of the migrating motor complex (MMC), which can result in the development of refractory SIBO.
Infections
A test for detecting Lyme and other tickborne diseases through both antigen testing and PCR recognition of microorganisms at a highly accurate level for definitive data in making diagnostic decisions.
A panel of 7 of the most common infections associated with autoimmunity of the nervous system and systemic autoimmune and inflammatory conditions; this panel is available as a standard part of our Neural Zoomer Plus, or can be ordered separately.
The most comprehensive panel for detection of exposure to mycotoxins, with 31 markers measured to the most toxic molds and mycotoxins.
A comprehensive panel of antibodies to common and emerging fungal pathogens known to cause disease and inflammatory symptoms in humans.
Anti-aging
The most comprehensive neurological degeneration and autoimmune screening tool available, with 48 antibodies to various structural and functional elements in the brain and nervous system. Aids in identifying antibodies including those responsible for dementia (memory loss) blood brain barrier disruption, neuropathies and inflammation.
A thorough and foundational look at urinary neurotransmitters and metabolites, including 7 which are unique to Vibrant. This panel is geared to assess the underlying imbalances in neurotransmitters found in common chronic inflammatory conditions.
A highly sensitive and comprehensive panel of urinary hormones to asses the patterns of imbalance found in hormones in inflammatory, immunological, and metabolic dysfunction.
A standard 4-point saliva collection to complement Neurotransmitter or Urinary hormone testing, including cortisol and other diurnal hormones.
Nutritional
A one-of-a-kind nutritional screening tool to assess direct measurement of both intra- and extracellular nutrient status of common vitamins, minerals, co-factors, amino acids, essential fatty acids and more.
A urine-based assay for the 20 most common heavy metal elements, with option for provoked and non-provoked ordering.
