A comprehensive functional lab testing review at Bay Natural Medicine goes beyond standard lab interpretations to provide a deeper understanding of overall health. This can include urine testing for mold, organic acid testing, toxic chemicals, and saliva testing for DNA and microbiome, and stool testing for dysbiosis. Rather than simply determining whether values fall within a conventional range, functional analysis evaluates how different markers interact and where optimization may be needed.
This type of testing assesses hormones, metabolism, inflammation, nutrient status, immune function, and cardiovascular health. Patterns within the data often reveal early imbalances that may be contributing to symptoms or increasing future health risks.

Functional lab testing reviews are especially valuable for individuals experiencing fatigue, weight changes, mood concerns, chronic inflammation, or unexplained symptoms despite being told their labs are “normal.”
During the review, providers explain results in clear, accessible language, helping patients understand what their labs mean and how they relate to their current health concerns. Education is a key component of the process.

Based on findings, personalized recommendations may include dietary changes, targeted supplements, lifestyle modifications, or additional testing. Each plan is designed to support the body’s natural ability to restore balance.
Functional blood work reviews at Bay Natural Medicine serve as a proactive tool for prevention, early intervention, and long-term wellness planning, empowering patients to take an informed and active role in their health.
