Metabolic Lab Testing

Our Metabolic Lab Testing goes deeper-looking at thyroid, hormones, blood sugar, inflammation, and more. It’s time to stop guessing and start really understanding what your body needs to feel its best. Let’s get to the root. 🔍

Uncover what your everyday labs might be missing.
If you’re feeling stuck with stubborn weight, fatigue, or mood swings-and your regular check-up labs say “everything looks normal”-it might be time to look deeper. Comprehensive metabolic lab testing helps reveal what’s really going on under the surface so we can finally get to the root of your symptoms. 

These tests provide insight into how your body is functioning on a cellular and hormonal level-especially if you’ve been working hard on your health but still not seeing the results you deserve.

🧪 What Do Metabolic Labs Measure?

Standard blood panels often miss the full picture. A deeper dive can show us how well your body is functioning in key areas like: 

  • Thyroid function (including TSH, Free T3, Free T4, Reverse T3, TPO antibodies)

  • Blood sugar regulation (fasting glucose, insulin, HbA1c)

  • Hormonal health and stress response (cortisol levels)

  • Vitamin & mineral status (like Vitamin D)

  • Cholesterol and lipid profile (HDL, LDL, triglycerides, apoB, apoE)

  • Inflammation levels (Hs-CRP)

These labs help us understand if there are imbalances affecting your metabolism, weight, energy, sleep, or even mood—things a basic panel might overlook.

🧠 Who Should Consider This Testing?

Metabolic testing is especially helpful for those who:

This bacterial overgrowth can interfere with how your body digests and absorbs food—leading to frustrating, painful symptoms like:

  • Can’t seem to lose weight despite “doing everything right”

  • Constantly feel tired, wired, or burnt out

  • Have a family history of thyroid or blood sugar issues

  • Struggle with hormone-related symptoms (PMS, irregular cycles, hair loss)

  • Experience unexplained inflammation or low immunity

  • Want to optimize health before things become a medical diagnosis

 

If you’ve been told everything is “normal,” but you don’t feel normal, this type of testing can help uncover why.

🏥 How Do I Get These Labs?

There are a couple of ways to access these tests:

  1. Through your doctor: Some of these labs can be ordered through your primary care provider—though you’ll often need to request them specifically, as they aren’t always part of routine screening.

  2. Through our practice: If you’re working with me, we can order these labs directly and interpret them using a functional approach—looking at optimal, not just “normal,” ranges. You'll also receive a personalized protocol based on your results.

💡 What Happens After the Results?

Once we receive your labs, we’ll review the results together in a 1:1 session. I’ll walk you through what everything means (in simple, human language!) and build a targeted plan to support your metabolism, energy, hormone health, and more. This isn’t a generic approach-everything is tailored to you.
