As an annual member of the Synthesis Health Lab, you have access to ordering your own labs, taking advantage of wholesale pricing.
While lab testing is not required in order to progress through the program, it can provide useful feedback and monitoring of quantitative markers.
COMMONLY USED LABS
Here is a list of some of the labs that I run most often in my practice:
- Diagnostic Solutions - GI MAP - stool

USING BINDERS FOR URINE TOXINS TESTS
Because many people who have elevated levels of toxins in their systems struggle to excrete them in their urine, I recommend using a binder before collecting samples for the Mycotox or GPL Environmental Toxins test.
The binder I recommend is the Biotoxin Binder from Cellcore. It supports the removal of toxins without inhibiting nutrient absorption and simultaneously repairs tissue while it’s removing waste.
The results will show higher levels of toxin output than would be expected without the binders. So we interpret the results with this in mind.
HOW TO USE
Take 2 capsules of Binder the day before and the day of collection. It’s fine to continue taking these and finish the bottle as they have helpful minerals and electrolytes that condition the tissues.
