Comprehensive Nutrient Panel
What This Test Measures
Full micronutrient status
Conventional vs. Functional Optimal Range
The gap between these ranges is why you feel terrible with "normal" labs. Conventional medicine waits for disease. Functional medicine optimizes for health.
Gabriel's Take
A comprehensive nutrient panel covers: Vitamin D (50-75), B12 (545-1100), Folate (15-27), RBC Magnesium (6.0-6.8), Zinc (99-130), Copper (90-130), Ferritin (50-100), Iron Saturation (24-35%), Selenium (110-130), Vitamin A (57-66), Vitamin E (8-15), Omega-3 Index (8-11%). Many people are low in more than one nutrient. Gabriel reads each against its optimal band.
