And this is what is showed. The high levels of calcium and mag are not actually high, the doc said that they showing that these things are not being absorbed well.

And the bottom ratio shows an inverse affect of my thyroid (CA/K).

Hi Trelemorele, thisnone was ordered by my functional med doc and tye price was close to $300 including the doctor’s fee. The name of company is called Analytical Research Labs. I have been somewhat looking into them online so you might be able to order it online ir perhaps your doctor might order it?

Hi Jenna, it is interesting that the high results are not actually high. Did your doctor tell you a bit more about it? I remember I had it done 2 years ago and Mg was very high, I repeated it 6 months after and Mg was on a lower side.

Yes, he said that the two highs followed by the two lows are a sign that the nutrients are not being absorbed correctly/ body is not running efficiently. I am sorry I do not recall alot of what he said ( he said alot) 😑. Do you have the booklet? It should explain it to you in detail? There is also a website: Arltma.com - articles this might have the information you need as well. I will look in this booklet and try to send it to you

I have done it through a nutritionist so didn’t get a booklet. My husband wants to do it soon and this time we will try to interpret the results ourselves. X

Your welcome! I hope you guys get one with a booklet the next time. Its been pretty helpful!

My doc said we will need to repeat in 3 months to see whats going on. So it might be good to get checked again?

Hi, when my naturopathic doctor said that when the results are through the roof they are showing deficiency. Since I could only share one picture on here, I may have forgotten to mention that there are pages in the back that go through each result and explain them in more depth.
