Another new BioSurvey is available: Bacteria - Probiotics. You’ll find it at the bottom of the list of BioSurveys, in both SET-DB™ and SET-DB™ Fibromyalgia. I’ll be doing some minor reordering of the BioSurveys in the near future, moving some new BioSurveys into the categories they belong in. For instance, the new and fabulous Wheat BioSurvey will be moved up to immediately after Gluten/Gliadin.

There are now 69 BioSurveys.

I also beefed up some BioSurveys, adding a lot of new items to a few categories and a few items to others. Enzymes was significantly expanded.

A few practitioners have asked for lists of what’s tested in each BioSurvey. The only way to get that done is to add everything in the collection the BioSurvey uses to the Stressor Table, then create a report that shows everything in alphabetical order. Tedious work. I have some done but won’t have them all done for a while. In the meantime, you can see what’s in each BioSurvey by running a search for the name of the BioSurvey, then opening the collection with the same name. Make sure you’re searching in the SET-DB™ Library. If you don’t know how to do this, contact your ZYTO coach or check their training videos on ZYTO.com.

I'm happy to announce the availability of seven new BioSurveys for SET-DB™ and SET-DB™ Fibromyalgia. You'll find them at the end of the list of BioSurveys the next time you sync your ZYTO software.

The new BioSurveys are:

1. Wheat: now treatment for wheat can be as detailed as the excellent gluten BioSurvey. Included in the new Wheat BioSurveys are things like peptides created when wheat protein is digested and enzymes involved in wheat digestion. Use this BioSurvey on patients who still have problems with wheat after you've gone through the Grains and Gluten BioSurveys, or use on everyone after either of those BioSurveys.
2. Salicylates: It was virtually impossible to address this important group prior to now as the ZYTO library contained only salicylic acid. Now, with the new Salicylates BioSurvey you have ~30 new salicylate samples to test and treat patients for. In addition to a Wikipedia post, here is another interesting page on salicylates.
3. Immune System Basics: This new BioSurvey allows you to test and treat, if necessary, for the basics of immune system, such as B Cells, Basophils, Bone Marrow, T-Cells, Eosinophils, Gamma-Interferon, Human Leukocyte Antigen, and much more. Consider using it with patients with autoimmune challenges. I would include it with fibromyalgia patients going through extensive treatment programs.
4. Inflammatory Response: A great BioSurvey to use with patients struggling with inflammatory conditions of all kinds.
   
5. Cytokines: Cytokines are immune system signaling molecules with potent effects. From Wikipedia: "Adverse effects of cytokines have been linked to many disease states and conditions ranging from schizophrenia, major depression and Alzheimer's disease to cancer." Consider using the BioSurvey with patients struggling with inflammatory conditions, depression, or other difficult conditions.
   
6. Insects: I'm not sure why I didn't create this BioSurvey before, but here it is now.
   
7. Plastics: Another useful BioSurvey to consider using with patients who have chemical sensitivities or those who want thorough treatment programs; i.e., who want you to get rid of all their sensitivities.
