What blood tests are best for measuring vitamins and minerals and other nutrients? There are different tests that measure amounts of nutrients in the blood, other tests that measure how well the nutrients work and other tests that measure absorption of nutrients. Here is what you need to know about your blood work…

Are vitamin tests accurate? Yes and no. Vitamin tests of the serum and plasma measure how much of a given nutrient in the blood for the past 2-4 days only. There are functional tests that measure how well certain nutrients are used in the body and still others for vitamin absorption.

The Blood Detective™ Laboratory and Wellness Approach
The right laboratory testing can make the difference between suffering for years or getting well in the shortest time possible. The wrong tests, or tests that do not reveal the cause(s) of your health problem(s), waste time and contribute to your suffering. Here is what you need to know about BlooDDetective testing:
-
If you have been told that your blood work is “normal” keep in mind that this means that your results fall within the average range for a man or a woman your age – this does not compare you to healthier or younger ranges. Dr.Wald will compare your blood results to “healthy” and not merely “normal” ranges.
-
If your blood tests are essentially normal (no major abnormalities), and you still do not feel well, according to Dr. Wald this means that you need a “New Normal”. You deserve to be treated like the individual that you are. Dr.Wald compares you to a “healthier version of yourself” determined by careful conversation with you and comparative advanced tests.
-
So you have had every test under the sun and still you are not well? Dr. Wald says, “in my 29 years of experience, when a person says this to me this really means that they are either missing key tests or that their tests were not interpreted appropriately. I always try and review prior tests that have been performed with my patients when we first meet. I often find that their are obvious answers right there in the tests that my patients were not told about.
-
Finally, the right tests for YOU depends on at least these factors: age and genetics, lifestyle including diet, stress levels and sleep hygiene, past and current health history, results of prior tests (important to put it all together), the types and dosages of nutritional supplements that you may take, your medications and other factors.
