WHY FUNCTIONAL LABS?
Standard lab testing often only shows a "snapshot" of what is going on in the body — how much of a substance is present at a single moment in time. Functional labs can show us far more detailed and useful information by accurately measuring how the body is actually using, transforming, and clearing those substances. Functional labs help provide the full metabolic story, what lies beneath "normal" bloodwork and generic reference ranges.
NO invasive blood draws or waiting on lab appointments- these labs are self-collected using saliva, urine and stool samples from the comfort of your own home.
Functional labs are recommended on an individualized and case-by-case basis. We will help you determine if functional labs are right for you, and if so, which ones would be most useful.
