Advanced Functional Testing
At Full Body Thrive, we offer advanced functional lab testing to provide deeper insights into your health. These tools help us uncover hidden imbalances and personalize your nutrition and fitness plan.
GI-MAP (Stool Test)
Maker: Diagnostic Solutions Laboratory
The GI-MAP uses advanced DNA technology to evaluate the health of your gut microbiome. It measures pathogenic bacteria, parasites, fungi, and markers of digestive function and inflammation. Because gut health is closely tied to immunity, hormone balance, mood, and nutrient absorption, this test provides a detailed snapshot of your digestive system. With these insights, we can create targeted nutrition and lifestyle protocols that restore balance and improve overall wellness. Click here to learn more about this specific test.
MRT (Food Sensitivity Test)
Maker: Oxford Biomedical Technologies
The MRT (Mediator Release Test) identifies your individual food and chemical sensitivities by measuring immune system reactions at the cellular level. Unlike allergy tests, which measure immediate IgE reactions, MRT looks at delayed hypersensitivity responses that may be driving inflammation. Results provide a personalized “safe foods” roadmap that helps reduce systemic inflammation, improve energy, support gut repair, and resolve stubborn symptoms like headaches, digestive distress, or joint pain.

Comprehensive Blood Chemistry Panel
Maker: LabCorp or Quest Diagnostics
A comprehensive blood chemistry panel goes beyond a routine annual check-up by evaluating nutrient status, blood sugar regulation, thyroid and adrenal markers, inflammation, liver/kidney function, and more. When interpreted through a functional lens, this test helps uncover imbalances before they become chronic conditions. It’s a powerful tool for assessing overall health, identifying early warning signs, and tracking progress as you move through your nutrition and fitness program.
