Biomarkers
Laboratory testing provides valuable insights into underlying factors influencing mood and cognitive health. Biomarkers can help identify nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, inflammation, and metabolic or biochemical disturbances related to mental health.
Metabolic psychiatry is an emerging field examining the intricate connections between metabolism and mental well-being. Issues such as insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction are increasingly recognized as contributing factors to psychiatric conditions like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia.
At AwarePsych, we understand that metabolic health—including blood sugar regulation, gut health, nutrient status, and inflammation levels—significantly impacts brain function and emotional wellness. Our comprehensive approach integrates dietary interventions, exercise recommendations, targeted nutritional supplements, and sometimes advanced metabolic therapies (such as ketogenic diets) alongside or in place of traditional psychiatric medication.
​
Most laboratory tests we utilize are covered by insurance. Additionally, we offer specialized testing, such as Viome gut microbiome analysis, accompanied by personalized nutritional recommendations, at discounted rates for our patients.
