3 decades of lab testing has taught me ‘the easier the test, the faster the client will get it done’. With more than a dozen functional labs out there we literally have hundreds of tests to choose from, to learn whats going on in YOUR BODY!
Many of the tests below are completed AT HOME in 3 minutes or less!!
After more than 30 years of working with clients, one thing has become very clear: the easier a test is to complete, the more likely people are to actually do it!!
Traditional blood work tells us when something is out of range, but it DOES NOT say WHY.
Functional Medicine offers hundreds of lab tests that DO.
I’ve put a small collection in the Functional Lab Portal below that you can order on your own. Don’t see what you need? Just ask — we can help you find the right test for you or your child.
We focus on the top 4 categories Julie always recommends: Gut, InflammAGING, Hormones, and Cellular Health. Julie E suggests running 1 lab test every 4 months for adults and children alike to keep a full picture of your health!
For clients who want deeper answers, we provide access to a functional medicine testing portal where you can order advanced laboratory tests from home.
These tests evaluate many important systems in the body including:
Most of these tests are completed with simple at-home kits using blood, urine, saliva, or stool samples. The results provide detailed insights that help guide personalized nutrition, supplementation, and lifestyle strategies.
If you are unsure which test is right for you, we are always happy to help guide you.
Your mitochondria are often called the power plants of your cells. They produce the energy your body needs for everything from brain function and metabolism to muscle performance and recovery.
When mitochondrial function declines, the body struggles to produce energy efficiently. This can show up as symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog, poor recovery, slow metabolism, and accelerated aging.
The MeScreen™ Mitochondrial Efficiency Test is an advanced at-home blood test that evaluates how well your mitochondria are functioning. The test measures multiple mitochondrial efficiency scores related to energy production, oxidative stress, and how your cells respond to metabolic stress.
The results provide insight into several important areas of cellular health, including:
Understanding your mitochondrial health can help identify underlying causes of fatigue, inflammation, metabolic imbalance, and other health challenges long before they appear in standard lab work.
Many clients find this test valuable because it provides a deeper look at cellular energy and metabolic health, helping guide more targeted nutrition, supplementation, and lifestyle strategies.

A team of researchers working with advanced metabolomics technology developed a new generation of blood testing that can measure hundreds of biomarkers from a very small sample.
The IOLLO test uses a simple at-home device that attaches to your arm and collects a small blood sample through a painless pinprick. The sample is then mailed to the lab, where advanced mass-spectrometry technology analyzes over 500 metabolic biomarkers related to metabolism, inflammation, nutrient status, and biological aging.
Unlike traditional blood panels that may measure only a few dozen markers, metabolomic testing evaluates a much broader picture of what is happening in your body right now — including how your metabolism, gut microbiome, and cellular energy systems are functioning.
The Balance Test measures your Omega-6 to Omega-3 ratio, which is one of the most important indicators of inflammation in the body.
Many people eating a modern diet have far too many inflammatory Omega-6 fats and not enough Omega-3 fats. This imbalance can contribute to fatigue, weight gain, slower recovery, and increased risk of disease.
This simple finger-prick test measures your fatty acid balance and shows whether your body has the right levels of Omega-3.
When you subscribe to the test with the Balance Oil program, you receive:
This test measures key metabolic markers that help identify early signs of blood sugar imbalance, insulin resistance, and metabolic stress. Many people experience symptoms such as fatigue, cravings, brain fog, or stubborn weight gain long before standard lab tests show a problem.
By identifying these patterns early, you can make targeted changes to your nutrition and lifestyle that help stabilize energy and support healthier metabolism.
Vitamin D is one of the most important nutrients for immune health, hormone balance, bone strength, and inflammation control.
Despite its importance, vitamin D deficiency is extremely common. Many people spend less time outdoors and do not absorb enough vitamin D through sunlight or diet.
This simple blood test measures your vitamin D levels and helps determine whether supplementation or lifestyle changes may be beneficial for optimal health.
Mechanics look under the hood of your car to diagnose the problems, Orthopedics take X rays to diagnose problems and Functional Medicine Practitioners run labs that are diagnostic in nature.
Most of the blood tests your allopathic (traditional) doctor runs, only give a little information that things are ‘out of balance’. They don’t tell us WHY or WHAT is the problem. For that, we can run a variety of tests: pee, poop, saliva, blood, hair and more. For years I ran an expensive test that required a blood draw (appointment) and a fasting state. These two factors were definitely a barrier so a lot of people never did get this helpful data about their body.
Our lab testing middleman has created a way for YOU to order ANY of the tests we offer. I will provide you the link below and you are welcome to order ANY test you feel called to. Before I provide that, I’d like to offer that urine tests are the SIMPLEST HEALTH SOLUTIONS for lab testing – they are easy to do and most people complete them right away – so I do recommend the OAT test. Otherwise, please take a look at this link and select whichever one you are interested in:
A few experts at Stanford recently released a super kool and easy blood test that I am already a fan of using. A little device goes on your shoulder with a pinprick I didn’t even feel and it collects blood. You send if off in the box the same day via prepaid Fed Exp and a couple weeks later you receive your results of hundreds of factors, both informative and diagnostic. Love the ease of use for this test and my results were exactly what I already knew about my body, so they were spot on!!!
We have kits in our office and/or you can click here and order one yourself.
Take control of your health journey with our convenient Medical Portal, where you can order at-home Functional Lab Tests tailored to assess key areas like gut health, hormone balance, allergies, genetic markers, energy levels, metabolism, and aging.

Is your body in balance, or are you unknowingly inflamed? Inflam AGING often fueled by the Standard American Diet (SAD), accelerates aging, makes weight loss harder, and impacts overall vitality negatively..

Order the test with a Balance Oil subscription (use it on your salad or eat it off a spoon!), and in month 4 you’ll receive a FREE retest to track your progress!
