Dr. Alejandra Carrasco
Functional Lab Testing for Autoimmune Disease
Dr. Alejandra (Alex) Carrasco shares her approach to functional lab testing for her chronic disease and autoimmune patients. The intention of this presentation is to educate practitioners and empower patients to become more literate regarding the testing they may want to discuss with the doctor/health practitioner.
Areas of testing discussed include:
- Comprehensive Functional Bloodwork
- Hormones & Neurotransmitters
- Heavy Metals, Toxicity, Glyphosate, etc…
- Genetics/Epigenetics
- Stool / GI Testing
Dr. Alex also shares her general approach when assessing potential internal and external root causes & triggers of autoimmunity, as well as some great tips as to “where to start” when it comes to formulating a healing plan!
