Supplements Should Be Based on Data —
Not Guesswork
Personalized nutrition and supplement plans built from your bloodwork results, not generic recommendations.
What Is Functional Bloodwork?
Functional bloodwork is advanced lab testing that evaluates your blood markers using optimal ranges rather than conventional disease-based ranges. The goal isn't just to confirm you're "not sick" — it's to understand how well your body is actually functioning and where imbalances are developing before they become serious problems.
At Triune, every bloodwork order is reviewed by Dr. Carroll or Dr. Gaughan — not a lab tech, not an algorithm. You get a real doctor's eyes on your results.
What Our $299 Panel Includes
Our advanced panel tests 67 biomarkers across multiple body systems:
-
Metabolic Health — Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP), fasting glucose, hemoglobin A1c, fasting insulin
-
Thyroid Function — TSH, T3, T4 (not just TSH alone)
-
Hormones — Cortisol, DHEA, testosterone (total and free for men), estrogen, progesterone
-
Inflammation — C-Reactive Protein (CRP), homocysteine, Vitamin D
-
Blood Health — Complete Blood Count (CBC), iron panel, ferritin, electrolytes, protein, calcium, magnesium
-
Organ Function — Liver enzymes, kidney markers (included in CMP)
-
Additional markers or add-on panels (food sensitivity testing, stool gut testing) are available based on your symptoms and goals.
Functional Ranges vs Conventional Ranges
Here's the critical difference. A conventional lab might flag your TSH only if it's above 4.5. Functionally, anything above 3.1 warrants attention. Your fasting insulin might read "normal" at 15 — but optimal is below 6. Your ferritin could be 20 and technically "within range" — while you're exhausted because your iron stores are functionally depleted.
These aren't small distinctions. They're the difference between catching a problem early and waiting until it's a diagnosis.
What You Get — Full Doctor Review
After your labs are drawn, Dr. Carroll or Dr. Gaughan reviews every marker against optimal ranges. You receive a detailed audio review walking you through your results — what's optimal, what's off, and why it matters, a written summary with specific findings and recommendations, and a personalized supplement and nutrition plan based on your results.
This isn't a generic printout. It's a custom analysis of your health delivered by a doctor who knows your case.
Re-Testing Every 3–4 Months
We recommend re-testing every 3–4 months to track progress, verify that supplements and dietary changes are working, and adjust your plan as your body responds. Functional medicine is data-driven — and retesting keeps your care precise.
Frequently Asked Questions
What markers are included in functional bloodwork?
Our panel includes CBC, CMP, TSH, T3, T4, hemoglobin A1c, fasting insulin, cortisol, magnesium, uric acid, vitamin D, lipid panel, CRP, homocysteine, iron panel, ferritin, and hormone markers. Add-ons are available on a case by case basis.
Why are functional ranges different from standard lab ranges?
Standard ranges are based on population averages in America (not that healthy) and designed to flag disease. Functional ranges are based on optimally healthy people and designed to catch dysfunction before it progresses.
How do I order functional bloodwork?
Contact our office or book online. We'll provide a lab requisition — you get your blood drawn at a local LabCorp, and our doctors review the results and deliver your personalized plan.
How quickly do I get results?
Lab results are typically available within 2–5 business days. Your doctor review and recommendations follow shortly after.
