About Functional Labs
To understand our symptoms when bloodwork is “normal,” we must look deeper at a tissue level. Functional lab testing provides tangible data to help find the root of the problem.
At-home CLIA certified functional labs take the guesswork out of the equation.

Types of Functional Labs
Adrenal, Thyroid and Hormone Lab
As you get older, your levels of estradiol, progesterone and testosterone fluctuate, which can lead to weight gain in hips, thighs and breasts. Your metabolism slows and your body doesn’t burn calories as fast.
Gone are the days of weight loss through calories in and calories out. Measure your hormones levels, their ratio to each other and your metabolism to give you a full picture of how your hormones are stealing your weight loss ability.
Adrenal imbalances, an imbalanced thyroid, dysregulated blood sugar levels and sub-optimal Vitamin D levels all contribute to fatigue, body aches, and weight fluctuations.
It’s absolutely vital that you know exactly what your hormone levels are as you age. Plus, if you’re dealing with any type of lowered mood, metabolism or mojo then this is the time to get tested.
When you’re dealing with any issues of lowered mood, metabolism, or libido, or have issues with losing weight, it has less to do with daily caloric intake or how much you exercise and everything to do with hormone balance, cortisol levels and metabolism.
Discover your hormonal imbalances and the other cofactors that allow you to live a life full of passion, energy, and vitality!

Minerals & Metals Lab
When our minerals become low or out of balance, our whole-body health can be impacted. On a day-to-day basis, mineral imbalance can cause us to become tired more easily; from a more long-term perspective, mineral imbalance can be an indication of more serious medical issues later in life.
Minerals levels, including your electrolytes, provide you with the energy to get through a busy day & buffer the effects of stress. We need minerals like potassium, magnesium and sodium to function optimally.
This test will enable you to see if you’re dealing with higher levels of toxic heavy metals from the food you eat, air or water pollution, any medicines you take or even food containers with an improper coating. Exposure can happen in our daily life, even coming from skin and cosmetic products approved to put on our bodies!
Who this lab is for:
This lab is an ideal starting point for individuals experiencing:
- High Stress
- Anxiety
- Overwhelm
- Learning Disabilities (Children)
- Mood disturbances

Omega 3 Lipid & Inflammation Lab
Running your yearly blood work with your Primary Care Doctor is not enough to assess your current level of cardiovascular health. And, with heart disease as the number one cause of death, it’s important to look at all causal factors.
By understanding your Omega-6 to Omega-3 fat balance, you will begin to see how balancing healthy levels of inflammation can keep you safe from a multitude of pro-inflammatory conditions.
When it comes to protecting your heart, watching your cholesterol and blood pressure won’t give you the full picture. In truth, inflammation levels are often a much better indicator of overall cardiovascular health. What’s more is that ongoing inflammation can lead to a number of other troubling health issues if left undetected.

Do You Suffer From:
- Cardiovascular issues
- Blood pressure imbalance
- Joint pain
- Low mood
- Hormones imbalances
