Advanced Blood Screening for Early Detection of Alzheimer’s Disease
At Internal Healing and Wellness MD, we believe that proactive brain health starts with precision diagnostics. That’s why we offer LucentAD® Complete, a non-invasive blood test designed to detect key biomarkers associated with early Alzheimer’s risk—long before symptoms appear.
What Is the LucentAD® Complete Test?
LucentAD® Complete is a clinically advanced blood-based screening tool developed by Lucent Diagnostics. It evaluates proteins linked to amyloid plaque development, neurodegeneration, and inflammation—critical indicators of cognitive decline. Utilizing ultra-sensitive Simoa® technology, this test delivers high accuracy even at extremely low protein concentrations, enabling early detection when intervention is most effective.
What Does LucentAD® Complete Measure?
This test evaluates five neurological biomarkers tied to Alzheimer’s progression:
- p-Tau 217: A highly specific indicator of amyloid pathology and early Alzheimer’s changes.
- Amyloid Beta 42/40 Ratio (AB42/40): Correlates with plaque burden in the brain.
- Neurofilament Light Chain (NfL): Signals axonal damage and neurodegeneration.
- Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP): Reflects astrocyte activation, an early immune response to plaque
- Additional protein marker: Supports comprehensive assessment and diagnostic confidence
These biomarkers offer a multidimensional view of your cognitive health and risk profile.

Who Should Consider This Test?
LucentAD® Complete is ideal for individuals who:
- Have a family history of Alzheimer’s or dementia
- Experience early signs of memory loss or cognitive fog
- Want to take a proactive, preventative approach to brain health
- Seek advanced insights to guide lifestyle, supplement, or care planning
Even in the absence of symptoms, early testing offers the opportunity to intervene before irreversible changes occur.
Why Early Detection Matters
Alzheimer’s pathology begins silently, years before diagnosis. By identifying risk markers early, patients can:
- Start neuroprotective treatments or lifestyle changes
- Access functional medicine protocols tailored to genetic predispositions
- Plan effectively for future care with clarity and confidence
- Monitor progression and respond to changes in real time
You screen for cancer, so why not cognition?
