Functional Medicine & Counseling

The Northport Wellness Center is pleased to offer functional medicine and education counseling provided by Northport Wellness Center Alliance Member, Dr. Christian Bogner.

Toxicities lead to deficiencies and deficiencies lead to toxicities. Sooner or later, this results in stress on our bodies, our minds and the entire system.

Dr. Bogner provides laboratory test interpretation education for individuals with complex medical conditions like auto-immune diseases, mental health disorders, and other chronic health conditions. His unique and advanced approach care assists patients in finding solutions for chemical imbalances by studying toxic environmental influences on various cellular, biochemical, and genetic systems. He focuses on patients’ desires and spends time listening and understanding the individual affected before correlating symptoms with laboratory findings.

Dr, Bogner provides the following services:

Initial Consultation – TeleMedicine
(60 Minutes)
The functional medicine-based initial consultation offers a focused approach all around YOU. Why are you not at your best? What is holding you back? This consultation will take you beyond your own genetic blueprints and discuss key roadblocks you may exhibit in your inner machinery. Your care is highly individualized and targeted around what you and your genes are craving.

Education TeleMedicine (30/60 Minutes)
Making sense of laboratory findings and correlating them to your symptoms is one of the keys to success. It is Dr. Bogner's goal to have you fully engaged on your path to optimal health.

Genetic Testing
Utilizing MaxGen’s genetic testing system, this test serves to assess a patient’s unique code, focusing on specific genetic variations (SNPs), nutrition optimization, methylation, detoxification, and neurotransmitter metabolism. Testing is administered by a mouth swab. Results take approximately four weeks.

Your report will cover the following:
• MTHFR and other methylation SNPs
• Stress and how your body responds (fight-or-flight)
• Antioxidant production and recycling in the body (Glutathione)
• The detoxification process for hormones, chemicals, and heavy metals
• Response to inflammation stimuli
• Genetic expression and the repair of your DNA
• Neurotransmitters and the balancing of brain chemistry
• Energy and overall production
• The repair of cells damaged by free radicals
• Fat & Carbohydrate Metabolism
• Eating Behaviors
• Vitamin Deficiencies
• Food Sensitivities
• Blood Sugar & Cardiovascular Markers
• Obesity & Weight Loss Markers
• Strength potential
• Endurance vs. sprinter
• VO2 Max
• Cardiovascular health
• Fat loss in response to exercise

Neurotransmitter Testing
Complementing the information gathered from the genetic test, this test provides insight into the lack of nutritional cofactors (vitamins, minerals) risking decreased (or increased) genetic expression affecting neurotransmitter levels. The information gained through neurotransmitter testing may provide therapeutic opportunities that can address cognitive concerns, mood, energy, sleep, stress, and many more.

Mold Testing
Mycotoxins are well documented for their toxic effects on the human cell, causing a number of problems in normal cell function and association with a wide variety of clinical symptoms and diseases that include:

• Kidney Toxicity
• Immune Suppression
• Autism
• Neurotoxicity
• Depression
• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
• Cancer
• Acute Pulmonary Hemorrhage
• Aplastic Anemia
• Birth Defects

RealTime Lab’s mycotoxin test detects the presence of harmful mycotoxin metabolites caused by mold or fungi in the body. It tests for 16 Mycotoxins including Aflatoxins, Trichothecenes, and others like Gliotoxin and Ochratoxin A.
