Dr. Mark Kennington DC, MSFN
Dr. Mark Kennington, DC, MSFN, holds a Master of Science in Functional Nutrition and has extensive experience in functional blood chemistry and personalized nutrition. He has reviewed thousands of laboratory results and developed individualized nutrition plans for patients from all walks of life, including professional athletes and Miss America contestants. His approach goes beyond simply determining whether a lab result falls within a standard reference range. He looks for patterns across metabolic, hormonal, cardiovascular, digestive, and nutritional markers to help identify areas that may deserve greater attention. Each plan is built around the individual and may include nutrition, lifestyle strategies, targeted supplementation, and follow-up laboratory testing when appropriate. The goal is simple: understand what your labs are telling us and turn that information into a practical plan you can actually follow. No fluff. No fads. Just what works.
