traditional lab panels that focus only on basic health markers, Wild
Health’s comprehensive bloodwork evaluates more than 68
biomarkers, giving practitioners an in-depth view of systemic
function.
Their testing covers everything from cardiovascular health and
metabolic function to inflammation, nutrient status, and hormonal
balance. In addition to blood testing, Wild Health incorporates
genetic analysis to offer a truly holistic, personalized approach to
wellness care. This combination allows practitioners4and students
studying holistic medicine4to create highly tailored
recommendations for diet, supplements, fitness, and lifestyle
based on an individual's unique genetic blueprint and real-time
lab data.
Wild Health represents a new wave in functional diagnostics:
data-driven, individualized, and designed to empower proactive
health management.
MicroGenDX
MicroGenDX is redefining infectious disease diagnosis through
advanced DNA sequencing technology. Unlike traditional cultures
that can take days and may miss hard-to-grow organisms,
MicroGenDX uses next-generation DNA sequencing (NGS) to
identify bacterial, fungal, and viral pathogens directly from clinical
samples.
Their technology can detect over 50,000 microbial species,
including elusive pathogens often missed by standard methods.
One of the key advantages of MicroGenDX is its ability to identify
organisms embedded in biofilms4communities of microbes that
are resistant to antibiotics and often responsible for chronic
infections.
This makes MicroGenDX particularly valuable for patients dealing
with chronic sinusitis, urinary tract infections, wound infections, and
post-surgical complications. What sets MicroGenDX apart is its
speed, accuracy, and ability to guide more targeted
