This is a single-marker test measuring interleukin-6. Please be advised that Boston Heart Diagnostics policy states that practitioners cannot order labs on themselves or their immediate family members.
Lab Test Comparisons
To help you choose the best test for your patients, we’ve built lab test comparisons! Select any lab tests to compare up to 18 key characteristics between them. You also have the ability to copy & share a link to your comparisons to anyone inside or outside of Rupa!
Hey Practitioners! On December 11th, join Dr. Terry Wahls in a free live class where she'll share her groundbreaking methods for managing MS and autoimmune patients. This live session will address your most pressing questions and will take a closer look at treatment options beyond the conventional standards of care. Register here.
This is a single-marker test measuring erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). This test can be used as a monitor for inflammatory disease severity.
ANA Screen
by
Access Med Labs
Serum
The ANA Screen detects the presence of clinically relevant circulating autoantibodies in serum.
Gluten Cross-Reactive Foods - Array 4
by
Cyrex
Serum
Measures IgG and IgA immune reactivity to ancient wheats, a variety of milks, alpha and beta casein, casomorphin, milk butyrophilin, other gluten cross-reactive foods, and foods that are used as gluten replacements. Detects autoimmune disorders that are associated with consumption of these food antigens due to significant cross-reactivity with human tissue, for example, the association of a-b-casein with multiple sclerosis and diabetes, or soy and aquaporin with the BBB. Developed, patented, and published by Aristo Vojdani, PhD, MSc, CLS, known as the father of functional immunology, in 2009, 2013, 2014, 2017, and 2018.
Sedimentation Rate (ESR)
by
Labcorp
Whole Blood
This is a single-marker test measuring the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). This test can be used to evaluate the nonspecific activity of infections, inflammatory states, autoimmune disorders, and plasma cell dyscrasias.
Leaky Gut Antibodies - Array 2
by
Cyrex
Serum
Measures IgG, IgM, and IgA antibodies against endotoxins, structural and tight junction proteins.
Detects disturbance in gut flora and endotoxemia, breakdown in tight junctions (occludin, zonulin), and cytoskeletal proteins. Some or all of these contribute to leaky gut to large molecules that challenge the immune system. Leaky gut to large molecules is the gateway to autoimmunity and neuroautoimmunity via blood-brain barriers damaged by endotoxins and other factors.
Developed, patented, and published by Aristo Vojdani, PhD, MSc, CLS, known as the father of functional immunology, in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2019, 2020, and 2024.
