Objectives At the completion of this workshop you will be able to discuss:
- Why "normal" lab results are not necessarily "optimal".
- 8 key lab markers and why they are important, especially from a physical therapist's perspective ;)
- How selected lab markers are interrelated in pain, healing, immune resilience, brain function including memory and moods, balance, and more.
- 2 important ratios related to cholesterol and insulin resistance.
- Recommendations to get the most out of blood tests.
- Where to learn more and how to obtain additional tests if desired.
NEWLY ADDED CASE STUDY! During this additional hour we will review the results of actual fasting blood test reports, reference ranges, and potentially related symptoms. Topics, plus extended Q&A, will include:
- Comparison of an individual's multiple test results to identify trends, favorable and unfavorable changes, and connections to other lab test results.
- Introduction to current fractionated lipid profiles, how they differ from traditional cholesterol panels, and when a "high LDL" may not be a concern.
- 3 modifiable lifestyle factors that may contribute to significant changes in blood test results.
