Functional Blood Chemistry Analysis Specialist™

Overview

Functional Blood Chemistry Analysis is a cornerstone of developing wellness support plans and understanding personal health and wellness. How often have you reviewed lab reports for yourself or with a client that indicate results are “within normal range,” but the individual behind the labs feels anything but normal? This is where functional blood chemistry analysis and understanding optimal versus normal ranges become important components in wellness consulting.

This micro-credential provides a foundation for a holistic approach to understanding blood chemistry analysis and functional labs, emphasizing optimal values rather than clinical ranges.

This micro-credential also emphasizes a correlation between all parts of the body, not just one independent biomarker. Students will develop an ability to effectively analyze an individual’s nutrition and supplement needs by reviewing functional blood chemistry labs. This course also provides a comprehensive and scientific means of monitoring an individual’s overall state of health.*
