Metabolic Labs
A comprehensive lab panel can provide valuable information about your metabolic health and can give us insight into your root cause of weight loss resistance. Even if you have had labs done recently with your primary care physician, there may be more comprehensive labs that are not typically included in a standard lab panel.
Recommended Labs
If you have been working weight loss and are not seeing results, these are labs I commonly recommend getting drawn:
FULL thyroid panel (TSH, free T3, free T4, rT3, TPO antibodies)
- Glucose labs (fasting insulin, fasting glucose, HgbA1c)
- Vitamin D
- Lipid panel (cholesterol, HDL, LDL, Triglycerides)
- Inflammation marker: Hs-CRP
- Cortisol
How to order metabolic labs
Many of these lab tests can be ordered by your primary care physician, upon special request. Several of these labs are not included standard bloodwork and will need to be requested specifically.
If you are a current client, we can order these labs for you, as well as provide functional interpretation of the labs and a personalized nutrition protocol.
