Blood Analysis
I analyze your blood for various biomarkers — from metabolic health markers and cholesterol levels to liver enzymes and much more— and tell you how you are faring in terms of health and fitness. I then recommend lifestyle changes of the markers I looks at, so we can work to bring your blood markers up or down to what is "optimal" for you based on the latest research. Whether your interest is fitness, overall wellness, nutrition, hormones, metabolic health or all of the above, I provide actionable directives, customized nutrition plans and supplement recommendations based on your results.

Hormone Assessment
The DUTCH Complete Test is the most comprehensive method of testing and measures your sex and adrenal hormones and their metabolites, as well as organic acids. This test looks at sex hormones and their metabolites, the overall diurnal pattern of free cortisol, and the total and distribution of cortisol metabolites in addition to organic acids which provide insight into nutritional deficiencies, oxidative stress, gut dysbiosis, melatonin, neuroinflammation and more.
This test is a valuable tool to optimize your hormone health and address hormone-related symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, hair loss, and mood swings. This thorough assessment of hormone metabolites can reveal estrogen dominance, suboptimal testosterone levels, HPA-axis dysfunction, and efficacy of hormone therapy. Easily collected in the comfort of your own home, samples are then sent to the lab to be processed. The DUTCH Complete is the most accurate test that provides a complete assessment of hormonal health.
Gut Microbiome
The gut microbiome affects weight regulation, immunity, hormone balance, sleep, digestion, metabolic health, micronutrient status, brain function and so much more of our daily living. Athletes are even more susceptible to gut dysbiosis due to training stressors, fueling choices, and environmental impacts on gut permeability. The GI-MAP quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) technology allows for accurate stool testing to detect pathogens, overgrowth, and microbial diversity. You can take this stool test in the comfort of your own home.

Nutrigenomics Testing
Nutrigenomics (sometimes called nutritional genomics) uses genomic technologies and genetic information to address issues important to nutrition and health, as well as performance, and other outcomes. The main goal of nutrigenomics is to optimize these health-related outcomes by examining how individual genetic differences modify our response to diet.
I offer three different genomics packages: sport & performance, health & wellness, and plant-based through Nutrigenomix. Your test results are presented in a customized report which includes DNA-based nutrition recommendations. Each genomic test contains 70 of the most applicable genetic markers that include information about nutrient metabolism, cardiometabolic health, weight management, food intolerance, eating habits, fitness & physical activity and more.
