Basophils account for only around 1% of white blood cells but play a role in allergy defense and stimulate antibodies against pathogens and parasitic organisms (such as ticks and worms) that cause injury or infection.

Eosinophils are recruited to inflamed areas of the body to trap substances, kill infected cells, viruses, parasites, and bacteria, and help tame an allergic response. Testing can reveal issues in the digestive tract, specifically the esophagus, and includes both percentage and absolute levels.

Lyme disease can go undetected (and therefore untreated) for years after initial infection. Testing for Lyme is incredibly important because it can eventually lead to brain and nerve damage. Lyme disease is the most common tick-borne illness in North America and is difficult to diagnose because its symptoms — more than 100 of them — can mimic other conditions like the flu, multiple sclerosis, lupus, and arthritis. *This add-on test is available for an additional cost and is not included in the $499 membership.

The Lyme IgM test is a blood test used to detect IgM antibodies in response to the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi, which causes Lyme disease. The presence of IgM antibodies indicates early-stage Lyme infection. *This add-on test is available for an additional cost and is not included in the $499 membership. This result is only processed if Lyme Antibody is positive or equivocal.

Lymphocyte levels can reveal a number of conditions, including autoimmunity, bone marrow disorders, kidney disease, gastrointestinal disorders, and more. The role of lymphocytes in the body’s immune defense is so crucial that abnormal levels can weaken the body, leading to severe illness or impairing its ability to fight off infections. The test includes both percentage and absolute levels.

Like other white blood cells (WBCs), monocytes help the immune system destroy invaders and also facilitate healing and repair. Abnormal levels can indicate bacterial infections, virus or fungus, stress, chronic infections, or autoimmune disorders. The test includes both percentage and absolute levels.

Testing the quantity of neutrophils helps detect damage caused by inflammatory disorders (such as rheumatoid arthritis and gout), infections (both acute and chronic), certain cancers (such as myelocytic leukemia), and physical stressors (including eclampsia in pregnant women, injury, and burns). Neutrophils are key patrols and first responders in the immune system, attacking antigens they encounter. The test includes both percentage and absolute levels.

A healthy WBC baseline over time correlates with the body's ability to fight off diseases and other hazards. Prolonged abnormalities can negatively affect biological age by impairing healing and increasing the risk of illness.

hs-CRP is revelatory in one's overall health as it relates to the risk of inflammation-related diseases. Chronic inflammation is linked to every major disease: heart disease (even before symptoms occur), type 2 diabetes, cancer, high blood pressure, Alzheimer’s, depression, all autoimmune diseases, and severe allergic reactions like asthma.
