In just 18 weeks, become a Certified Functional Blood Chemistry Specialist—no medical license required—so you can pinpoint root causes, know exactly what to recommend, and build a thriving practice full of life-changing client transformations.
You've run more client labs through ChatGPT than you'd ever admit — and still weren't sure you got it right.
In 18 weeks of live training, you'll learn to read any panel with your own eyes — spot the pattern, trace it to the root cause, and build the exact protocol your client needs. No more second-guessing. No more hoping you got it right.
📅 Cohort begins Tuesday, June 30 · Live calls every Tuesday at 12:00 PM PT
Are You Struggling With…
As a dedicated practitioner and coach, you want to deliver consistent breakthroughs for every client. However, it's not uncommon to be…
Staring at lab panels, overwhelmed by numbers but unsure which markers truly matter
Second-guessing every supplement choice and dose, fearing you'll under or over-do it
Spending endless hours hunting down protocols, time you'd rather spend with clients or family
Watching clients plateau or bounce back, despite your best efforts and heartfelt advice
Feeling like an imposter when a complex case slips through the cracks
It's Not Your Fault
Here's what almost no one tells you:
The fix was never more studying.
You can read every article. Stack every certification. Memorize every "optimal range."
And still freeze when a real panel is in front of you.
What stands between you and confidence isn't more knowledge.
It's a framework — one that turns a wall of numbers into a single, readable story.
The one thing you were never handed.
Until now.
What If You Could...
- ✓Read any blood panel in minutes with rock-solid confidence
- ✓Pinpoint the single lab pattern that unlocks client breakthroughs
- ✓Recommend the exact supplement dose that moves their markers—and their health
- ✓Spend less time scrambling for answers and more time celebrating wins
- ✓Command premium fees as the go-to lab expert your clients rave about
Honestly? I owe you an apology.
Not for anything you did — for what our industry told you was true.
- ✕You were told blood work is the doctor's job — hand it back and stay in your lane.
- ✕You were told that without letters after your name, labs are off-limits to you.
- ✕You were told to trust the "normal" ranges — the same ranges that call an exhausted, struggling client perfectly healthy.
That's not how it should be. You should be able to open any panel, see the story it's telling, and hand your client a protocol that moves the needle — without stepping one inch outside your scope.
I know it's possible because I started exactly where you are: panels I couldn't read, no license, no roadmap — just thousands of them in front of me and the stubbornness to figure out what they were actually saying. When you're ready to skip the years it took me, the next cohort is open for enrollment →

"It may have quite literally extended my husband's life."
While reviewing her husband's bloodwork using what she learned in this course, Savannah identified a potentially dangerous pattern. That insight led to a physician visit, additional testing, and treatment that might not have happened otherwise.
This is why functional blood chemistry matters.
Read Savannah's full testimonial ↓
What did you find most valuable about the course?
On a deeply personal level, this course gave me the tools to recognize a potentially dangerous pattern while reviewing my husband's bloodwork. That insight prompted a visit to his physician, where additional testing was ordered and appropriate treatment was recommended. His condition likely would not have been identified without the knowledge I gained from this course. That will always be the most valuable part of this experience for me — it may have quite literally extended my husband's life, which is the most meaningful outcome imaginable.
How has it changed the way you think about health and lab work?
This course has become my go-to framework for functional testing. It is both affordable and incredibly informative. Most importantly, it teaches you how to identify problematic patterns before they cross the point of no return — and that perspective is truly profound.
Would you recommend it to others?
Without hesitation. This is the best course I have found in the functional medicine space. I am deeply grateful I found my way to it, and I know it will have far-reaching positive effects not only for my family, but for my future clients as well.
