Have you ever been told your blood tests were “normal” but you still didn’t feel 100%? 👀
One of the most common things I hear in clinic is:
“my blood test was normal…”
But many people are still dealing with fatigue, brain fog, bloating, anxiety, hormonal symptoms, poor recovery, digestive issues, and not feeling like themselves.
A result falling inside a reference range doesn’t always mean your body is functioning optimally.
One of the biggest things I focus on as a Naturopath is identifying patterns in bloodwork and interpreting results against optimal functional ranges, not just whether they are flagged as “abnormal”.
Regular blood testing can be incredibly valuable for:
• busy professionals
• parents
• athletes / regular exercisers
• people with chronic stress
• anyone struggling with ongoing symptoms
• anyone wanting to optimise their long-term health
As a general rule, I recommend having comprehensive bloodwork reviewed annually, or more regularly if symptoms, medications, hormonal concerns, digestive issues, or chronic health conditions are present.
If you’ve been told your blood tests are “normal” but you still don’t feel right, this is something I support patients with regularly in clinic.
Comprehensive pathology testing and bloodwork interpretation available via consultation 💚
