How often should one undergo micronutrient testing?

The frequency of micronutrient testing depends on individual health needs and conditions. Your healthcare provider can recommend the best schedule for you, but typically it might be done annually or when there are significant changes in health or diet.

What steps should I take after receiving my mironutrient test results?

After receiving your test results, it's important to consult with your healthcare provider or a nutritionist to interpret the results and create a personalized plan, which may include dietary changes, lifestyle modifications, and supplements.

Are there any risks associated with micronutrient testing?

Micronutrient testing is a low-risk procedure involving a standard blood draw. The primary risks are minor and include discomfort or bruising at the puncture site, similar to any routine blood test.

How Is micronutrient testing different from regular blood tests?

Unlike standard blood tests that measure things like blood cell counts and cholesterol levels, micronutrient tests specifically assess the levels of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants in your body to determine if there are any deficiencies or imbalances.

The Micronutrient Testing Process

Once you decide to move forward with a micronutrient test at The Performance Lab, our certified clinicians will review your medical history and current lifestyle practices. We will then draw a small sample of blood to determine what nutrients are present in your system. After the results are complete, we will go over them in detail with you, explaining what each result means and how it impacts your overall health.

Based on the results, we will provide you with a comprehensive treatment plan that includes lifestyle changes, as well as specific dietary modifications tailored to meet your body’s individual needs. We may also recommend additional testing or treatments designed to correct any deficiencies and help you reach optimal health. Some examples of deficiencies we may see and our recommendations include:

Vitamin D Deficiency. Supplementation, increased sun exposure, and incorporating more salmon, swordfish, tuna fish, dairy/plant milk, and OJ can help increase levels of this essential vitamin.

Iron Deficiency. Supplementation, IV iron therapy, and incorporating more beans, seafood, red meat, and dark, leafy vegetables can help adjust levels of iron within the body.

Magnesium Deficiency. Adding more magnesium-rich foods such as pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, almonds, etc can help increase magnesium levels. Supplementation or IV therapy can also act as helpful solutions.

"I was referred to the Performance Lab by two people for muscle tension, headaches, and arthritic pain. I have a membership for monthly massages and didn't think there would be much of a difference between the two but I was so wrong! Becky, Melissa, and Jordan have all treated me and I can’t say enough about how great they are! The treatment has done wonders for my headaches and I can’t imagine going anywhere else now!"

"Best place for physical therapy for back issues. My daughter missed a whole year of gymnastics due to back issues and we were recommended to the Performance Lab. She went twice a week for the whole year and was able to compete states, regionals and easterns without doing any meets for the entire year. Thank you Jordan for all that you did to help in getting her where she needed to be to compete."
