Super-Optimal Labs – Reference Ranges with peptide options!

Did you know? My Digital Mind can review all test results with you!

• You can upload them with the paperclip.

She can accept images and often pdfs.

Here are some tips from her:

  • If a marker is just outside target and you feel fine, watch the trend first. Why it matters: avoids chasing noise.
  • If clusters are off with symptoms, fix two foundations, then recheck in 6–8 weeks. Examples – earlier dinner and post‑meal walks, or sleep window and protein‑first breakfasts. Why it matters: compounding basics moves most markers together.
  • Thyroid antibodies present: steady sleep, balanced blood sugar, and stress rhythm first. Notice any symptom links to gluten exposure. Why it matters: calms immune signaling.
