​I know my subject line sounds like a COVID test - but that is far from my preference.
Â
My desire is your immune system and projected future health.Â
I have shared in the past two emails about the importance of Vitamin D. Even with our days of 100' and the heat index high this is the perfect time to have your blood tested.
Â
Then having it done again in the winter is also imperative. The comparison of the two will help you know how well your body manufactures D from the sun. This comparison can be a life saver!
Â
Today, it's time to get your Vitamin D numbers and be wise as to how healthy you truly are.
Â
Plus it saves money to order many tests yourself. The cost for these private labs is less than what your physician office charges although there is no insurance applied.
Â
Here are the 4 Steps to Get Your Vitamin D Tested and other tests I recommend:
I have personally worked with Direct Labs for over 10 years. It is a simple process and your results are protected. Protecting your private information is not through HIPAA - it is through choosing where tests are ordered.
Â
2. Local Lab - Direct Labs will help you find a local lab for the blood work. This is super simple and all payment is already handled through Direct Labs.
Â
3. Personal Physician - No personal doctor is needed. Order by phone or through the website. If you order by phone use code: R-DHL. Results can be shared with your physician at your next visit.
Â
4. Wellness Notebook - Keep your results in your personal Wellness Notebook. The best way to protect your health is to track the results. Don't be surprised with a cancer scare when tracking is so simple. Keep a notebook for each family member.
Â
5.
Follow Up - Schedule an appointment with our team or your physician for help interpreting the results. Schedule with us
here. A 15 minute review is $15. When purchasing through Direct Labs you can opt to sign the HIPAA for Designed Healthy Living to review your results. This is optional otherwise we have no
access to your results.

Unsure what to order?Â
Here is a handout you can print and take to your doctor to get specific tests ordered. The more you KNOW the more you can CORRECT & PROTECT!
Â
Save money and use your insurance when it works for you but realize you are not limited to what your insurance approves. You are in control of your health - be wise - be proactive - be intentional!
Â
The stress of what is happening around us can cause more damage than you are aware of.
To be in the know - get an inside view!

Many blessings to you and your family. I hope you find this info helpful and as always - any questions please reply to this email.
