Become A Blood Detective And Identify Clues
For Root Cause Of Chronic Disease!
The Art of Functional Blood Chemistry Interpretation
(30 CPEs)
This module may be taken as separately or as part 2 of the Functional Nutrition Assessment training and is also included in our full IFMNT certificate of training program as well.
Course Overview:
Have your clients been told their blood work shows nothing, yet they still feel unwell? Are they frustrated with being told it’s all in their head or that they just need to destress? Just because your labs are in the “normal range” doesn’t necessarily mean they’re optimal. This is a gray area many end up in. Too many are being told there’s nothing wrong – in Functional Medicine, we call them the “functionally Ill”.
How would you like to learn a proven system of deep bloodwork evaluation that leaves no stone unturned to find the hidden clues blood can tell you beyond that which is used to diagnose a disease state?
You can tell more from bloodwork than you think, especially as you look at it from a systems biology approach or the root-cause approach that is the key characteristic of the Functional Medicine model. Doctors aren’t conventionally taught to use blood this way, but you can be, and your clients will thank you!!
Bloodwork can provide evidence of underlying imbalances that are often influenced by nutrition; just what you need to better target your recommendations. By knowing how to view labs through the functional Nutrition lens, you’ll help your clients achieve better health outcomes and vibrancy!

Course Objectives:
Upon completion of this unit, participants will be able to….
1: Compare and contrast the differences between functional lab ranges and standard lab ranges
2: List the general categories included in the Complete Metabolic Panel (CMP), as well as all tests included in this panel
3: Analyze the CMP to interpret key relationships between tests
4: Identify all tests and test patterns included in the Complete Blood Count (CBC)
5: Classify and interpret White Blood Cell (WBC) lab results
6. Discover shortcomings of the standard lipid panel
7: Evaluate lab results to differentiate between anemia types
8: Interpret thyroid labs from the functional perspective
9. Identify key markers suggesting oxidative stress, inflammation, and protein balance
10. Recognize the significance of acute phase reactant and immunoglobulin biomarkers
In combination with the assessment of physical signs and symptoms, blood chemistries are of unique value in helping clinicians connect the dots and get answers!
This Training Provides:
In this module, the functional medicine model will be applied in a unique way to the interpretation of conventional blood labs. Everything involved in lab work will be covered:

Note: While not mandatory, we recommend Module 1 – Functional Nutrition Assessment part 1 be taken before or in conjunction with this module for the learning of the fullest application of the FN Assessment unless you have already had thorough Functional Nutrition Assessment training or experience and are familiar with imbalances in the six core centers of health that often underly chronic disease, as this is taught in our IFMNT program. There will be an opportunity for registrants to purchase an “add-on” of the coverage of the core centers training should they feel the need for a better foundation for the Blood Interpretation module.
