Biofeedback Tracking:
The Medical Symptoms Questionnaire
Fill this out on a regular basis to track how your health behaviors are impacting your symptoms. This will be an important tool to help you become more aware of how your new behaviors are impacting your health.
Yourlabwork Lab Testing — Monitor your labs for a more precise intervention
Basic Labs
I suggest you start here.
Order lab testing at a discounted rate from YourLabwork.com/wahlsprotocol
The reference ranges and interventions can be found beginning on page 346 in the book.
I recommend these tests every three months as you are optimizing your diet and lifestyle to get your values into the optimal range. These basic tests evaluate the health of your detoxification processes in your liver and kidneys and how well you can make blood cells. It will also provide a basic evaluation of your metabolism and hormone function.
- CBC
- ALT
- Creatinine
- Fasting lipids
- Glucose
- Hemoglobin a1c
- Fasting insulin
- Highly sensitive CRP
- Folate
- B12 (cobalamin)
- Homocysteine
- Free T4, Free T3, TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone)
- Vitamin D
General labs
These are additional labs that more thoroughly assess your general health and nutritional status. These are also very helpful for optimizing your diet and lifestyle choices. I check these on myself once a year to be sure they are in the optimal range.
- Comprehensive metabolic panel
- Urinalysis
These are more advanced nutritional status labs:
- RBC magnesium, zinc, copper, selenium
- Omega 3/6 index
- Coenzyme Q
Advanced Lipid Testing:
- This looks at particle size, particle number in addition to Lipoprotein(a), apolipoprotein B
Food Sensitivity Testing
The elimination diet is the gold standard to determine which foods you react to. However there are times that additional testing may guide you to understand which foods are causing an abnormal immune response.
These test for the IgG antibodies which are associated with food sensitivity issues and are different than IgE which test for food allergy.
Food allergy is associated with swelling of the throat and closing of the airway, which has the potential to be fatal. Food sensitivity is associated with a more gradual, general increase of inflammation molecules and autoimmune related symptoms.

Dr. Terry Wahls is best known for her work in using diet and lifestyle interventions to manage MS, a condition she’s been diagnosed with herself. As a clinical professor, an author, and a speaker, she educates the public and medical community about the healing power of the Paleo diet and therapeutic lifestyle changes that improve the health and vitality of autoimmune, neurologic, and chronically diseased patients. Through her work, Dr. Wahls aims to shift the standard care for autoimmune patients and create an epidemic of health.
