Suggested Routine Blood Work

1. Get your blood tested regularly. Get printed copies to keep for your own personal reference.
2. Schedule follow-up tests as necessary to see the effects of better eating and supplementing.
3. Read these books for reference:
a. Normal Blood Test Scores Aren’t Good Enough by Ellie Cullen, RN
b. Blood Chemistry and CBC Analysis by Dr. Dicken Weatherby
c. Signs and Symptoms Analyses from a Functional Perspective by Dr. Dicken Weatherby
d. Treasures of Health Nutrition Manual by Annette Reeder BSN
4. Become an Inner Circle member. Follow our 3 program steps to join Annette in her personal coaching
group. More information on [Link].

The blood work can be ordered by your doctor or you can order them yourself through
[Link]. This is an inexpensive resource for individuals to manage their own health and a way
to keep your results private.

Always fast before having blood completed – at least 10 hours. Drinking water is recommended since many
tests are affected by dehydration. As an example high cholesterol can be attributed to dehydration.

If the numbers seem Greek, ask for assistance. Find someone who can help you understand if the values
are optimal or just ok. Sometimes being ‘normal’ is not good enough. This is where the Inner Circle can be
very helpful!

Some Blood Test Notes:


CA test are for measuring Cancer scores. Getting a baseline will alert you in the future if a cancer begins
to form and you can act on it quickly before it is even diagnosable.
CRP – measures inflammation – a good indicator of cancer as well. Get inflammation under control and
the heart disease/cancer risk lowers greatly.
Vitamin D has become known as the precursor to a lot of other health problems. Read about this in the
Treasures of Health Nutrition Manual.
For women who are menstruating, but not yet in menopause, if testing hormones please have blood
drawn on day 18-21 of your cycle (Day 1 is 1st day of menses).
