Antioxidant & Oxidant Stress Test
Every day, your body is exposed to free radicals—unstable molecules produced through normal metabolism, environmental exposures, stress, pollution, UV radiation, smoking, and even intense exercise. While your body naturally defends itself with antioxidants, an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants can lead to oxidative stress, which has been associated with aging and many chronic health conditions.
The ICare Antioxidant & Oxidative Stress Test provides an advanced evaluation of your body's antioxidant defenses and oxidative stress levels, offering valuable insight into your overall cellular health. This innovative test helps you and your healthcare provider better understand how your body is responding to internal and external stressors and can support personalized wellness strategies.
Whether you're focused on preventive healthcare, healthy aging, athletic performance, or optimizing your overall wellness, this advanced assessment provides meaningful information beyond traditional laboratory testing.
With ICare's concierge mobile laboratory services, advanced wellness testing is delivered directly to your home, office, or preferred location.
What Does This Test Measure?
The Antioxidant & Oxidative Stress Test evaluates biomarkers that reflect the balance between oxidative damage and your body's natural antioxidant protection.
Depending on the specific panel ordered, testing may evaluate:
Oxidative Stress Markers
Measures biomarkers associated with oxidative damage that may occur when free radicals outnumber the body's antioxidant defenses.
Elevated oxidative stress has been associated with:
Cardiovascular disease
Diabetes
Chronic inflammation
Neurodegenerative conditions
Accelerated aging
Environmental and lifestyle factors
Total Antioxidant Capacity
Evaluates your body's overall ability to neutralize free radicals and protect cells from oxidative damage.
Healthy antioxidant defenses help support:
Cellular function
Immune health
Cardiovascular wellness
Healthy aging
Recovery from physical stress
Additional Oxidative Health Biomarkers
Depending on your healthcare provider's order, your panel may include additional laboratory markers that provide a more comprehensive assessment of oxidative balance, inflammation, and metabolic health.
