FDN stands for Functional Diagnostic Nutrition®. It is a comprehensive, lab assessment based approach used to identify malfunctions and dysfunctions in the metabolism that are preventing a person from living their best life.
That’s a lot of words… what does this mean for you?
When I learn someone is being plagued by a health complaint, I want to try to get an idea of WHY. The way I work is different from a doctor, who is trained to diagnose and treat a specific symptom of a disease. The FDN approach requires running a series of functional lab assessments, most of them in your own home, to identify and address as many opportunities for healing as possible. As these healing opportunities are identified, you will be taught how to build back your health by boosting your body’s innate healing abilities. I know this method works because it worked for me and my family. Please read our story to find out more.

Some of the Labs I Use…
OAT (Organic Acids Test)
This functional lab assessment offers a comprehensive metabolic snapshot of a patient’s overall health with 76 markers. It provides an accurate evaluation of intestinal yeast and bacteria, plus markers for vitamin and mineral levels, oxidative stress, neurotransmitter levels, and oxalates.
DUTCH (Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones)
This functional lab assessment is a comprehensive assessment of sex and adrenal hormones and their metabolites. The DUTCH complete also looks at melatonin and oxidative stress. It assesses many things more accurately than blood / serum testing.
MENTAL M.A.P. ™
Get to the root cause of your anxiety, ADHD and other mental health struggles with the Mental M.A.P. ™, the most comprehensive and reliable test designed to detect neuro inflammation.
Vibrant Wellness Labs
Vibrant Wellness Labs provide a unique look at food, environmental toxicities and infections. If you’ve ever wondered if you are sensitive to gluten and dairy, have mold illness, heavy metal toxicity, tick borne illness, or other health concerns there is a Vibrant Wellness lab that will likely help get to the bottom of things. Bundle discounts on multiple labs may be available, and there is also access through the Wellness Plus by Dr. Jess membership.
GI MAP
This functional lab assessment is a comprehensive stool test that uses quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) technology to detect parasites, bacteria, fungi, and more, by targeting the specific DNA of the organisms tested in the stool. Yes, this checks your poop. And yes, this is VERY important.
HTMA
Hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA), is an analytical test which measures the mineral content of the hair. It helps identify deficiencies and potential excesses long before they show up in blood / serum tests.
MRT Food Sensitivities
The MRT is the most comprehensive lab assessment for food sensitivities. Avoiding foods you are sensitive to while healing from environmental toxicities can speed healing for many people since it reduces inflammation caused by foods that you are sensitive to.
