What Is Gut & Hormone Testing

This non-invasive testing evaluates your gut microbiome and hormone/nutrient levels (including cortisol and thyroid markers). Partner labs such as Genova Diagnostics and Infinite Allergy Labs provide data on food sensitivities, nutrient deficiencies, and metabolic imbalances affecting your energy or weight loss progress.

How Gut & Hormone Testing Works

Our partner labs collect and analyze samples such as stool, swabs, or blood off-site. Results are typically available within 2–4 weeks and are reviewed with you via TeleMed consultation. These findings help guide nutrition and lifestyle adjustments, such as addressing gut dysbiosis or hormonal imbalances, to better support your weight management goals.

This service is ideal for individuals in Vero Beach, Florida, experiencing unexplained weight plateaus, chronic fatigue, or digestive issues. It is also recommended as a pre-program step before beginning a structured weight loss or peptide protocol. Many patients may qualify for coverage through BCBS or Medicare.
