Description
Have you been told by your doctor that your blood tests are fine, yet you remain exhausted, moody, irritable, anxious… potentially with a host of hormone, skin and gut complaints? It might be time for a second opinion.
Naturopathic and functional medicine takes a different view on blood tests. We use much stricter reference ranges, so where your doctor may look at your tests and say everything is “within range”, naturopaths see the finer detail and can identify aberrations in hormones and nutritional deficiencies.
We are looking for optimal levels of blood test markers, not levels that are “fine”, and this is what can make all the difference to your energy, mood, hormone health and more.
