Why Your 'Normal' Bloodwork Might Not Tell the Whole Story

Have you ever been told by your doctor that your bloodwork looks "normal," yet you still don’t feel your best?

It’s frustrating, isn’t it?

Every week, I work with clients who come to me experiencing low energy, mood swings, digestive issues, and hormone imbalances. They're often left feeling disheartened after being dismissed at their annual doctor visits.

Here’s Why This Happens:

Basic Testing: At standard primary care visits, doctors usually conduct basic blood work that aims to identify glaring health issues. However, they often miss important tests for nutrient deficiencies, immune system dysfunction, or gut microbiome imbalances that could be the root of your symptoms.
Overlooked Symptoms: Symptoms like fatigue or anxiety may stem from deficiencies or thyroid imbalances that aren’t examined during routine visits.
Limited Time: With an average of only 8 minutes per patient, doctors often don’t have the time to explore deeper issues.

But if you've experienced this frustration, don't worry! There’s more we can do to unlock your health goals.

Real-Life Impact of Nutrient Deficiencies

Just recently, I spoke with a client who had been battling fatigue, brain fog, and mood issues for years. Through our work together, we discovered she was severely deficient in Vitamin B6 and Zinc. With a tailored nutrition and supplement plan, she experienced remarkable improvements. After just 4-6 weeks, she felt like a new person, with her symptoms virtually disappearing.

Common Symptoms Linked to Deficiencies:

Chronic fatigue
Focus and attention issues
Brain fog
Anxiety and depression
Mood swings
Excess hunger and weight gain
Frequent illnesses or infections
Joint or muscle pain
Headaches or migraines

If you haven’t had your vitamins and minerals tested yet, now is the time! Identifying these deficiencies could be the key to a healthier, happier, and more energized you!
