Genova’s nutritional testing offers precision results and personalized recommendations to create a nutritional treatment plan for optimal health and wellness. But for patients and clinicians, this can seem overwhelming when there is a significant amount of nutritional need. In addition to dietary counseling, clinicians often reach for supplements. VitaminLab is a premier supplement company in Canada that can customize results from the NutrEval and Metabolomix+ into as few pills as possible to help with patient compliance. Dr. Lydia Thurton is a naturopathic physician who works with clinicians through VitaminLab to help them through the process.

In today’s episode, we talk to Dr. Lydia Thurton and discuss the process of customizing nutritional formulas, cautionary tales you should be aware of when choosing a supplement company, and the quality controls used by VitaminLab.

The world of medicine can be challenging. Clinicians and patients are always looking for more options, more effective treatments… and in the end, more answers. What if there was a way to practice medicine that digs deeper and offers a new perspective? Functional medicine focuses on addressing root causes of disease. At Genova Diagnostics we’ve watched this field evolve and grow for over 35 years….

We’ve not only adapted, we’ve led. Join us as we talk about functional medicine, laboratory testing, and optimizing health. Welcome to the Lab Report.
