A deeper look inside the course
Mastering Functional Lab Test Analysis is an in-depth investigation of the hidden patterns and connections within many functional lab tests. The course is designed to give you the tools you need in order to identify your client’s primary imbalances, as well as how to get clinical results faster, and more effectively with potent nutritional protocols.
Blood chemistry is the most inexpensive test to use to gain important insights, generate protocols and develop a successful clinical practice. You’ll learn how to decipher blood chemistry markers as found on a CBC, lipid, metabolic and thyroid panels.
Having a basic understanding of intracellular metabolism is key to understanding the mechanisms of dysfunction among your clients, as well as how certain nutritional therapies can be used to support function.
We will discuss at length the research into the biochemical effects of food, nutrients and herbs.You will learn how to apply specific dietary and supplemental recommendations, based upon individual metabolic characteristics, as well as key findings on a blood test.
Working with challenging cases doesn’t have to be challenging, if you are able to make priorities, and understand your goals.
Learning how to work with a client longterm is key to achieving a results, and life changing improvements. Being able to make necessary adjustments to protocols is an important part of clinical success.

Urinary Organic Acids (OAT) Testing Interpretive Multi-Media Reference Guide
Urinary organic acids can tell us a lot of things about the body’s many biochemical pathways and physiological systems. From a clinical perspective, OAT testing is a troubleshooting test, which aids clinicians in the ability to form a deeper impression regarding the client’s concerns.
This interactive pdf is a comprehensive multi-media guide to the in-depth interpretation of the OAT test. This guide categorizes oat markers, derivatives, and possible therapies into helpful tables and provides an in-depth video for each of the main oat marker categories.
