109 - Functional Health Essential Panel (19 tests)
Functional Health Essential
Fasting Required
PROVIDER INITIATED TEST - The Functional Health Essential Panel is a comprehensive blood test that provides a broad evaluation of foundational wellness markers, hormone balance, metabolic health, inflammation, thyroid function, and key nutritional status. This panel includes essential labs commonly used in functional medicine and longevity-focused care to identify underlying imbalances that contribute to fatigue, weight changes, hormone symptoms, inflammation, and overall health decline.
It is commonly ordered as an advanced baseline wellness panel, for individuals experiencing low energy, stubborn weight gain, hormonal concerns, thyroid symptoms, chronic inflammation, or as routine monitoring during wellness and optimization programs.
The panel includes 19 tests:
Core Health & Blood Screening
Complete Blood Count with Differential (CBC w/Diff):
Evaluates red and white blood cells to assess anemia, immune status, infection, and inflammation
Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP):
Assesses liver function, kidney function, electrolytes, and blood glucose for overall metabolic health
Creatine Kinase (CK), Total:
Marker of muscle breakdown, recovery status, and systemic stress
Inflammation & Autoimmune Screening
High Sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP):
Measures low-grade inflammation linked to cardiovascular and chronic disease risk
ANA Screen (Antinuclear Antibodies):
Screens for autoimmune connective tissue conditions that may contribute to chronic symptoms
Metabolic & Cardiovascular Risk
Hemoglobin A1C:
Measures average blood sugar control over the past 2–3 months and assesses diabetes or insulin resistance risk
Lipid Panel:
Evaluates cholesterol balance and cardiovascular health markers
Adrenal & Hormone Optimization Markers
Cortisol:
Key adrenal hormone involved in stress response, energy regulation, and metabolic function
DHEA-Sulfate:
Important adrenal androgen linked to vitality, aging, and hormone production
Estradiol (E2):
Primary estrogen hormone involved in reproductive health, mood, and hormone balance
Progesterone:
Supports hormonal balance, cycle regulation, and endocrine health
Testosterone, Free & Total with SHBG:
Measures total and active testosterone levels along with hormone binding status
Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1):
Marker of growth hormone activity, metabolism, recovery, and peptide support
Thyroid Panel (Free T3, Free T4, TSH):
Comprehensive thyroid evaluation, critical for metabolism, energy, and weight regulation
Folate:
Essential B vitamin required for red blood cell production, DNA synthesis, and cellular health
Iron, Total:
Evaluates iron status, a common contributor to fatigue and low energy
Vitamin B12:
Important for nerve health, energy production, and cognitive function
Vitamin D, 25-OH, Total:
Key nutrient for immune balance, bone strength, inflammation control, and hormone support
CEA (Carcinoembryonic Antigen):
General tumor marker sometimes included in advanced wellness screening and clinical monitoring
