Testing Nutritional Status: The Ultimate Cheat Sheet is an 82-page ebook in PDF format that presents my comprehensive system for managing nutritional status.
It contains a comprehensive approach, a cost-saving approach, and a time-saving approach, depending on your needs.
The system is based on lab work, dietary analysis, and an index of about 200 signs and symptoms, all of which can be used together to determine needs for dietary changes and supplementation.
Here is what people are saying about it:

I understand that you support continuing supplements before functional testing, and I do the same with my patients. However, I’m curious about your thoughts on B6 supplementation before testing. Some of my patients are on a methylated multivitamin containing 75 mg of Vitamin B6 (as pyridoxine HCl and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate), and their fasting B6 levels often come back significantly elevated—sometimes double the upper limit. This causes concern for them. What are your thoughts on this?
Hi Chris,
From CheatSheet 3: 'Free copper index: subtract (ceruloplasmin * 3.15 in mcg/L) from serum copper in mcg/L. This is the free copper. Divide this by the serum copper to yield the % free copper. If free copper is above 15 or the % free copper is above 15%, see Elevated Free Copper below.'
My ceruloplasmin is 19.3 mg/dL and serum copper is 13.2 µmol/L;
Conversion: ceruloplasmin 193,000 µg/L; serum copper 838.8072 µg/L; I used unitslab.com for conversion of copper.
Calc: 19.3 µg/L x 3.15 = 607950 µg/L;
838.8072 µg/L - 607950 µg/L= -607,111.1928 µg/L -> free copper
-607,111.1928 µg/L : 838.8072 µg/L = ~ -723,78 %
This makes no sense - but I can't find the mistake
