Functional Lab Testing
Experiencing persistent health concerns, yet conventional lab tests return normal results? You are certainly not alone in this perplexing situation! That’s where functional medicine lab tests can come into play. These tests can potentially delve into critical insights about your health and can provide answers.
What is functional lab testing?
Just as the name implies, functional lab testing aims to determine how well your body is functioning. Functional lab testing refers to diagnostic tests that assess how well the body’s organs, systems, and processes are functioning, rather than just looking for the presence of disease or abnormal structures.
Functional Testing vs Conventional/Standard Lab
Functional lab testing goes beyond standard medical tests (which are often focused on identifying illness) to evaluate the performance and efficiency of various physiological systems, including the immune system, digestive system, detoxification processes, hormonal balance, and cellular health.
The goal of functional lab testing is to detect imbalances, deficiencies, or dysfunctions early, often before symptoms of disease appear, so that steps can be taken to correct these issues and promote optimal health.
