FUNCTIONAL BLOOD CHEMISTRY
Uses optimal ranges to look for patterns that can point to:
Toxins (heavy metals, parasites, mold)
Chronic inflammation
Bacterial or viral infections
Mitochondrial dysfunction
Chronic or acute stress
Overburdened detox pathways
Liver, kidney, gallbladder stress
Digestive and metabolic imbalances

Normal versus optimal
“Normal” ranges on blood work are based on statistical averages from the general population. But, as chronic illness becomes more prevalent, these ranges have widened over time. This means that reference ranges often reflect what is common within the population, rather than what is optimal for health.
It can be frustrating to deal with symptoms that are dismissed as normal. Fatigue, bloating, headaches, joint pain, acne and eczema are signs that your body needs extra support.
Using optimal ranges to look at your blood work can give you a different perspective on your health and provide a clearer path toward healing.
