Stress and Nutrition Antioxidant Screen

Evaluates oxidative stress levels to determine whether diet or lifestyle changes may reduce your risk for disease.

This test measures the F2-isoprostane/creatinine ratio, which reflects oxidative stress in the body. Excessive oxidation, or oxidative stress, can lead to cellular damage and various health conditions such as cancer, heart disease, or diabetes. This test is useful for anyone who wants to evaluate their oxidative stress levels, including those with risk factors such as smoking, unbalanced diet, high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), or a family history of cardiovascular disease. An abnormal result may indicate an increased risk of developing certain health conditions; a healthcare provider may recommend dietary or lifestyle changes or further testing.
