What tests should I run? What markers?
What Labs should I use?

The Functional Medicine strategy for fatigue is to screen for the top 5 underlying causes: Thyroid, Blood Sugar, Hormones, Anemia, and Food Sensitivities/GI Infections.

The app includes access to an online testing system that will be of use to sophisticated students, patients and practitioners who are ready to blast through the mundane model of medicine and have access to Functional Medicine Test panels.

What’s the difference between Functional Medicine tests and regular lab tests that patients are getting through insurance?

For example, in a conventional medical office, TSH is tested for your thyroid analysis. That’s it. One marker.

Functional Medicine testing calls for a complete thyroid panel including thyroid antibody tests. Functional Medicine practitioners also screen for possible blood sugar problems, infections and/or anemia all of which can impact on thyroid function and cause fatigue. A more comprehensive assessment of the web of physiology underlying the symptoms is the key to finding solutions for fatigue (or any chronic health challenge). Testing is always the first step in this process.

Our comprehensive panels are ready to order through an online system. More markers, better tests and comprehensive lab panels can be ordered by patient or practitioner to allow for expedited detection of where fatigue is coming from.
This is the Functional Medicine approach in a nutshell.
