Functional Medicine Labs
the Functional Medicine lense:
Functional medicine has a wider lense when interpreting lab test results.
That means that what a conventional doctor may consider “within normal limits,” a Functional Provider may consider as “not optimal” for your health and wellness.
This can be a critical key to your well being and can explain why you may be experiencing symptoms, like fatigue, weight gain, dry skin, hair loss, and depression, even though you may have “within normal limit” lab results.
We are happy to review your labs from other providers.
Our most frequent Functional Medicine tests are listed below. . .but there are many many more! We also order traditional testing.

Complete Thyroid Panel
Every cell in your body needs thyroid hormones to function, but unfortunately, thyroid dysfunction can be hard to nail down. Many underlying thyroid problems don’t show up on standard labs because conventional providers typically only run TSH & T4.
A full thyroid panel is a blood test that looks more than the TSH & T4, to give you the most accurate picture of your thyroid health and rule out possible autoimmune thyroid problems.

DUTCH TEST
The DUTCH Complete test is unique although several other companies have similar tests. Extra markers in the urine are measured such as melatonin, vitamins, anti-oxidants, neurotransmitters and markers of inflammation. This helps to provide a more complete picture of hormonal health and can lead to individual and comprehensive treatment plans. Results may indicate benefits to be had with the use of herbs, hormones, nutrition and lifestyle changes and also can point to persons with a higher risk of hormone-related conditions or diseases.

Mycotoxin Testing
The Mycotoxins panel measures levels of mycotoxins produced by common molds that people are exposed to. Mycotoxin exposure can come from both dietary and environmental sources. Dietary sources include spoiled or rotten foods, grains, dried fruits, nuts, coffee, and spices. Environmental sources include living or working in water-damaged buildings, airborne or physical contact with outdoor molds, and airborne dust in buildings containing mold spores. If you were diagnosed with or suspect toxic burden, impaired immunity, autoimmune disease, or exposure to mold, this panel may benefit you.

Heavy Metal Testing
The Heavy Metals panel tests for exposure to harmful heavy metals and elements such as arsenic, lead, mercury and more. Heavy metals can be found in all regions of the United States and can accumulate in air, soil, drinking and groundwater sources. Those who are immunocompromised, have impaired liver function, or have reduced antioxidants and mineral activity can benefit from this panel. Children may also benefit from this panel as they are at a higher risk of developing heavy metal toxicity.
