Quarterly or semi-annual testing reveals trajectory. Single snapshots confuse noise with signal.
Coaching aligns behavior with numeric feedback loops.
Interpreting your results
Your coach connects lab results to your plan and follow-up reviews. Therapies follow clinical review.
General education. Lab ordering should involve licensed clinicians.
