Nourish Labs

Our current low-cost lab availability includes:

Basic Metabolic Panel — available to all patients (excluding Rhode Island).

Includes:

• Lipid Panel (Total Cholesterol, LDL-C, HDL-C, Triglycerides)

• Blood sugar and insulin health (HbA1c, Fasting Glucose, Fasting Insulin, HOMA-IR)

• Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (electrolytes, kidney markers, liver markers including AST, ALT, ALP, Total Bilirubin, Albumin, Total Protein)

• Thyroid (TSH)

Heart Health

• Advanced cardiovascular markers such as Lipoprotein(a), hs-CRP, and ApoB

Thyroid

• Free T3, Free T4, Thyroid Peroxidase (TPO) Antibodies, and Thyroglobulin Antibodies

Nutrient Panel

• Iron, TIBC, Ferritin, % Iron Saturation, Vitamin D, B12, Folate, and Magnesium

Total Health

• The all-in-one option — Basic + Heart + Thyroid + Nutrient in a single requisition and a single lab visit. Priced well below consumer services like Function and Superpower, patients get results paired with ongoing clinical care.

In the coming months, we’ll be adding more lab availability and additional biomarkers (think nutrients, hormones, heart health) to deepen the value of this experience for patients and RDs.

When clinically appropriate, you can recommend these labs directly from the chart note —then patients purchase through the Nourish app. RDs recommend labs, orders are reviewed by our lab-ordering partner, your role stays focused on nutrition counseling, and results appear in the chart note with AI-powered summaries.

Why this matters to you and your patients

• Personalized, data-driven care. Labs turn short-term goals into measurable, science-backed targets you can track together.

• Stronger engagement and retention. When patients see evidence of their concrete wins, motivation spikes and session attendance stays high, driving better long-term outcomes.

• Instant access + zero patient cost. One app click books a free draw at Quest or BioReference - no paperwork, co-pays, or doctor chase - eliminating friction so more patients access the tests they need.

High‑Level Workflow

• Click “Request Lab Panel”

• Request is routed to our clinician partner network to review and sign the requisition.

• Patient receives email to schedule lab draw

• Patient books & completes lab draw

• Partner clinician monitors results and contacts patient to support critical values

• Results are posted to portal - patient and RD both receive email/alert when available

• Review results, deliver nutritional guidance, and advise PCP review

• Document revised care plan and schedule follow-up labs when clinically appropriate

When to Order

• New Nourish patient: For baseline testing, we strongly recommend a panel if an adult (18+) has no documented lipid panel and HbA1c drawn within the past 90 days.

  • This also applies for patients who have already been seen at Nourish but have not had baseline labs completed in the last 90 days.

• Follow-up testing: Reference the Clinical Resource Guides and use your judgment. We will include lab request nudges as relevant to patient conditions.

  • Generally, we recommend at least 12 weeks (~ 3 months) between a patient’s last blood draw and any follow-up panel.

  • Nourish will monitor lab requests to ensure they meet our standard of care.

Your Scope of Practice

Allowed - Explain how nutrition affects markers, set diet/lifestyle goals, document PCP referral.

Not allowed - Diagnose diseases, prescribe or adjust medications, chart medical interpretations ("uncontrolled diabetes").

Always encourage patient to consult with their PCP: “Please review these results with your primary‑care provider for formal medical interpretation.”

Critical vs. Abnormal Values

Official Disclaimer

Nourish provides nutrition education and counseling. We do not diagnose conditions or prescribe treatment. All laboratory orders are signed by a licensed clinician in our partner network. Critical values are communicated immediately by that clinician. Patients should review all results with their primary‑care provider for formal medical interpretation and follow‑up care.
