Chronic Infection Panel (Add-On)

Additional chronic infection biomarkers.

NOTE: Please order the core program first and add this panel. The core program contains key base biomarkers. This panel adds markers that provides information about chronic infections. We all have some level of chronic infection that our immune system usually manages well. However, if white blood cells are higher or lower than optimal, stealth and chronic infections are usually the cause. Bacterial infections usually cause  an elevation of white blood cell counts and the neutrophil value.

This panel screens for several “usual suspect” stealth / chronic infectious species. The components of this panel include:

  • Mycoplasma pneumoniae (IGG) – an organism that lies somewhere between being a virus and a bacterium. It can infiltrate the lungs and cause a pulmonary embolism. It is also known to cause “walking pneumonia.”
  • Toxoplasma gondii – an intracellular parasite that most commonly impacts the brain and eyes.
  • Lyme disease (expanded blot). This test looks for several bands for spirochetal (spiral shaped) bacterial infection. A tick bite my be a source of a spirochete. However, the most common source is from the oral cavity. Treponema Dentacola is a common oral pathogen which is also a spirochetes. Lyme disease causes many ailments including: brain fog, joint pain, and a lack of energy. Oral spirochetes can cause the same symptoms.

Adding these markers help in performing a proper diagnosis of:

  1. Brain and eye disease issues
  2. Fibromyalgia / energy issues
  3. Autoimmunity
  4. Vascular complications including: irregular heart rhythms, elevated heart rates, and high blood pressure.
  5. Arthritis including RA

The core panel includes the chlamydial and H pylori antibody biomarkers.

We recommend you also obtain the “OralDNA” test that evaluated your burden of various stealth oral pathogens.

 

Research

"For years, researchers have suspected a link between elevated white blood cell count and heart attack," notes JoAnn Manson, one of the study leaders and Elizabeth F. Brigham Professor of Women's Health at Harvard Medical School. "The present study is the largest to test this association and provides the strongest evidence to date that WBC (white blood cell) count predicts the risk of heart attack."

Women with more than 6.7 billion white cells per liter of blood had more than double the risk of fatal heart disease than women with 4.7 billion cells per liter or lower. A count of 6.7 is considered to be in the upper range of normal, so what is "normal" may have to be redefined.

NOTE: The white blood cell count considered normal in the standard of care is this range: 3.4 – 10.8 billion white cells per liter.
