Pathology testing is essential for Autism/ADHD and mental health symptoms

Have you ever had blood tests done and your doctor/GP said "everything is normal" with your results?!
It's not possible to have "normal" results if you have symptoms or conditions!

​Or have you not had any blood testing recommended or done for Autism/ADHD diagnoses? If you haven’t, then you are majorly missing out on finding key factors which are causing your symptoms and health issues.
As a Clinical Nutritionist and Naturopath specialising in mental health conditions and ASD/ADHD disorders, I know what the possible root causes and factors which can contribute to the development of these conditions.

I recently posted an article on FB about a patient case where I found nutrient deficiencies and other factors in blood pathology testing, which were contributing to the patient’s mental health symptoms (severe depression, Generalised Anxiety Disorder, and Bipolar Disorder). A critic wrote sarcastically that it was a new idea that I thought that there was such a thing as getting blood tests for mental health conditions! If you are used to the medical world of doctors, psychologists and psychiatrists for mental health or neurological conditions, it may well be a surprise to see any doctor requesting blood tests for these issues, as their usual go-to would be to just prescribe medications for the particular diagnosis. A good thing I’m not a doctor then! Medications try to just hide the mental health symptoms, but they don’t often do a very good job of that, because they always introduce awful side effects.

My focus as a Nutritionist and Naturopath is to find all the root causes of someone’s symptoms and conditions, to put together a personalised treatment plan to address all the root causes and other factors too. This applies to any symptoms, conditions or diagnoses, or combination of these in each person. Including mental health diagnoses and Autism/ADHD conditions and symptoms.

Blood pathology tests are a great investigative tool to help find nutrient deficiencies which can affect neurotransmitter production, and contribute to mood and behaviour issues, as well as other common ASD/ADHD issues of low energy, digestive symptoms, low immune function, skin rashes or eczema, sensitivities, and more. I’ve never yet seen anyone with Autism/ADHD without one or more nutrient deficiencies, and other factors which are all contributing to the development and progression of these conditions.

Blood tests can also find other metabolic factors which can contribute to Autism/ADHD symptoms including anaemia, low thyroid function, inflammation, oxidative damage.

Finding these nutrient deficiencies, metabolic factors, and heavy metals, can explain your symptoms and conditions, but can all be treated to reduce symptoms, reverse and clear symptoms, and improve quality of life and long-term health!
