Nutrition needs vary from preconception to conception, and from pregnancy to postpartum. During preconception, nutrition is focused on hormone balance and getting both parents as healthy as possible. During the prenatal phase, nutrition focuses on nourishing mom and baby. Finally, the postpartum term requires focusing in on healing, re-balancing, and lactation, if breastfeeding. These stages are the ideal time to evaluate your diet to ensure you are meeting the nutritional requirements to help you feel your best.

You will take home a convenient kit that includes a finger prick and blood sample card that you mail directly to the lab.

Once we have received your results, you will then meet with our nutritionist to go over your results and create a plan moving forward.

We now offer a GI-MAP (Gastrointestinal Microbial Assay Plus) test by Diagnostic Solutions Laboratory. This test was designed to detect microbes that may be disturbing normal microbial balance or contributing to illness as well as indicators of digestion, absorption, inflammation, and immune function. Although anyone can benefit from this test, the GI-MAP is especially helpful for finding the root causes of certain autoimmune diseases, chronic gastrointestinal complaints, weight loss issues, mood disorders, and chronic skin issues. The GI-MAP is a stool test and comes in a convenient kit that you can do in the comfort of your home.
