Blood Nutrition Chemistry

David Peterson, D.C.

 Have you ever wondered what supplements you should be taking? Are you suffering from information overload? Who, what, and where are those recommending nutritional supplements to you getting their information? There is a way to know precisely what your body needs to assist you in achieving optimal health. The Blood Nutrition Chemistry utilized by Wellness Alternatives can reveal significant information which can be used to plan an effective wellness program for your precise needs.

 All supplements are generally good but it is how, what, and when they are used which determines whether they are what you really need. In years past, I utilized the same tried and true methods (symptom based muscle testing used by many Alternative Health Care Practitioners) to determine which supplements to recommend. There were success and failures. With time, I began to realize I was doing symptoms suppression (the same thing MD’s are criticized for) rather than assisting the body to heal. As with many others in alternative medicine, very little laboratory testing was done because it was based upon the pathologic laboratory values. They compare you to all the sick people having their blood drawn in hospitals across the city, which does not assist in restoring a person’s health to optimal levels. In the search for a better way to help my patients, I found Functional Endocrinology and Blood Nutrition Chemistry.

 Blood Nutrition Chemistry is based upon Functional Laboratory values, which compare you to optimally healthy individuals. It came as a shock to us when a patient who is a medical researcher questioned where we got the Functional Lab values because “no one knows about them” like it was top secret. In retrospect it now seems odd; he did not use them for himself.

 The Comprehensive Wellness Panel utilized by Wellness Alternatives is the future of science-based nutritional supplements and provides you the following benefits:

§           Establishes a scientific base line for all nutritional therapies

§           Provides a true biochemical picture of your health

§           Reveals nutritional imbalances

§           Monitors effectiveness of the therapeutic approach

 This is accomplished by using supplement protocols painstakingly evaluated and formulated specifically to support the correction of the vicious cycles you may be experiencing.

 Look around the next time you have your blood drawn. Your health is being compared to those around you. Do you want to be as “HEALTHY” as them? If not, call Wellness Alternatives today to schedule your Blood Nutrition Analysis. 636-227-4949


Laboratory vs. Functional
Blood Ranges

There are two main type of ranges in the field of blood chemistry analysis:
Laboratory range and Functional Range
