Functional lab testing aims to determine how your body is functioning as a unit.
The data gathered through these tests helps determine the impact of nutrition, stress, environment, hormones, genetics and more on your health. It can also assess the state of your microbiome – the bacteria in your gut. As a result, you have more information to determine the underlying causes of your symptoms.
As an Integrative Healthcare Practitioner I will determine the best tests for you, since there’s no set formula for testing.
In an ideal world I would like to see a Wellness Panel, Organic Acids Test (OAT), and a Hair Elements Test on all patients.
