Oxidative Stress: measure the cellular wear behind fatigue, inflammation, and recovery
For chronic inflammation, slow recovery, high stress load, or longevity goals: see how much oxidative wear you are carrying.
This may be worth exploring if...
Cellular stress is part of the bigger picture. These are common reasons patients choose the Oxidative Stress test.
Why specialty testing is different
Normal is not the same as optimal, and a test is not the same as interpretation.
The report is only the beginning
The Oxidative Stress test helps evaluate cellular oxidative damage and antioxidant reserve from a simple urine sample. Nuvitru uses it to guide strategy in the context of toxins, inflammation, and recovery - not as a standalone diagnosis.
Use the lab menu to match your symptoms and goals to the panel that fits the question.
Pricing reflects the lab test only; assessment and interpretation are purchased separately.
When results return, they are uploaded to your patient portal and our team texts you.

Is this the right test for you?
A good fit if...
Chronic inflammation or slow recovery
High stress or training load
You are in or planning a detox program
Longevity and resilience goals
Maybe not the right fit if...
You need emergency or urgent care
You want a diagnosis or treatment without a clinician evaluation
You want the lab alone to create your plan
A different test may be a better first step for you
What is included
Questions patients ask before ordering
What does the Oxidative Stress test measure?
Urinary markers of oxidative damage, including DNA damage, lipid peroxidation, glutathione status, antioxidant capacity, and repair signals, to weigh cellular wear against recovery.
Who is this test best for?
People with chronic inflammation, fatigue, slow recovery, high stress or training load, or longevity and detox goals.
Can I take it at home?
Yes. You collect one simple morning urine sample at home and mail it back.
Why should I not just take more antioxidants?
Because more is not always better. Results should guide a targeted strategy with your practitioner rather than broad antioxidant guessing, which can sometimes work against you.
Is this a diagnostic test?
No. It is an educational and clinical decision-support tool. It highlights patterns to explore with a practitioner and does not, on its own, diagnose or treat any condition.
How long do results take?
Most results return about 2-3 weeks after the lab receives your sample. Timing can vary, and we confirm current turnaround before fulfillment.
Do I need to stop supplements or medications?
Sometimes. Certain supplements or medications can affect specific markers, so we send prep instructions and confirm what to pause. Never stop a prescription without your prescriber's guidance.
Can I order this without becoming a patient?
Yes, you can order without officially becoming a patient, but the 4-Month Reset is where the magic happens. We encourage you to at least schedule a new patient session to get the most out of your results.
What happens after results come back?
We upload them into your patient portal and send you a text to let you know it has been uploaded. You can text our care team to schedule your new patient session if that is something you're wanting to do.
What if this is not the right test for me?
That is why choosing the right test matters. We can redirect you toward a better first step before a kit ships or a draw is arranged.
Start with data, leave with a plan.
