This innovative system addresses the growing complexity of
functional medicine testing by providing a unified framework for
analysis, interpretation, and application of diverse laboratory
data, ultimately supporting more precise and personalized
therapeutic approaches.
LabSmarts: A Bioindividual Approach to Lab Interpretation
LabSmarts stands out from other lab interpretation software like
OptimalDX and LabDx through its unique focus on bioindividual
analysis rather than just functional reference ranges. While most
functional medicine platforms compare lab values to optimized
ranges, LabSmarts takes interpretation a step further by adjusting
these ranges based on individual factors such as age, sex,
pregnancy status, elevation, ethnicity, and other physiological
variables that significantly impact what's truly "optimal" for each
person.
Key Differentiating Features
Bioindividual Analysis
Unlike other platforms that use static functional reference ranges,
LabSmarts dynamically adjusts ranges based on research-backed
personal factors. For example, it accounts for how elevation
affects red blood cell parameters or how menstrual cycle phases
influence certain markers.
Evidence-Based Root Cause Analysis
The software identifies possible root causes of imbalances through
sophisticated pattern recognition that correlates multiple markers,
