5 New Blood Biomarkers Added!

  • Ceruloplasmin
  • Copper, RBC
  • Copper, serum
  • Free Copper (calculation of % of free copper)
  • Cu/Zn Ratio
  • Bar graphs for all markers appear in the Nutrients Analysis section.
  • The first four markers also appear in the Iron Analysis section.
  • If the body doesn’t have enough copper attached to ceruloplasmin, it can’t convert the ferrous(+2) form of iron to the ferric(+3) form.
  • Iron must be in the ferric(+3) form to attach to transferrin.
    • TIP Always order ceruloplasmin and serum copper when ordering the iron panel with ferritin markers.
    • Ceruloplasmin and serum copper are needed to calculate % of free copper.
    • This free (unbound) copper can cause oxidative stress.
    • Copper, RBC is also a good test to order because it’s a better representation of intracellular copper than serum copper.

ALL MARKERS now have ranges for each trimester of pregnancy!

Don’t forget that we’re holding a FREE webinar…

“What You Never Learned About Blood Work in Preconception, Pregnancy, and & Postpartum.”

New Possible Root Causes tab in the Iron Analysis section

The Possible Root Causes tab will show possible root causes for any marker in the iron analysis section when it’s either greater than or less than optimal.

This feature will soon be added to every analysis section!

 

Client’s name at the bottom of every PDF analysis page!

This feature is for users who print out the analysis reports and give them to their patients at the office.

This avoids pages getting mixed up when printing reports for multiple patients at the same time.

Importance of Assessing the Sodium-to-Potassium Ratio (Na/K)

Assessing the sodium-to-potassium (Na/K) ratio offers valuable insights into electrolyte balance and overall health, reflecting the body’s response to stress, inflammation, and adrenal function. By monitoring this key ratio, practitioners can detect early signs of imbalance, guiding more personalized and effective health interventions.
