BUT WHAT DO MY LABS
ACTUALLY MEAN?
As a functional dietitian, Kelli believes understanding our labs can help us make more empowered decisions. Kelli runs a variety of functional tests. She starts most of her clients with a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis, iodine and functional blood labs. From there they receive a full report of what the heck all the labs actually mean for them! Kelli helps her clients connect their labs not just to physical health choices like food, nutrients, herbs and fitness, but to their mental, emotional and spiritual health practice. Because girl, there’s more to high cortisol than just taking Ashwanghanda..
GI-Map, DUTCH, genetics and more can also be tested. But first, learn about the magic of minerals in the StrongHer Labs Circle.

Your doctor is ordering the basic, normal, “Chronic Disease Markers” as I call them. Chances are these are either entirely unhelpful for you, orrrr you’re ready to take a more holistic, root-cause approach. Functional labs can provide valuable insight into nutritional, hormonal, inflammatory and biochemical factors contributing to our state of wellness. These labs can also help us optimize our health even if we don’t have severe daily symptoms. I continue to use these labs regularly to manage my hormonal and skin health, while other clients of mine use them to manage weight, digestive health, mental psychiatric conditions and more.
We love to start with minerals to gain insights into stress resiliency and cellular health.
As we heal the body and mind, the HPA-Axis repairs, leading to stronger muscles, improved metabolic health and less hormonal symptoms.
