Your test results include explanations and insights specifically relevant to your unique results. This information is sourced from a diverse group of the world's top doctors, including Function's Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Mark Hyman, MD. All information is derived from published, peer-reviewed scientific studies from the NIH, JAMA, NEJM, and other reputable sources. Every round of test results is also reviewed by clinicians, and their summaries are included when you receive your results.
Yes. We always provide you with a PDF from the performing laboratory. You can share this with doctors or loved ones anytime.

Function applies machine learning algorithms to your lab results over time, uncovering patterns humans might miss. By analyzing millions of data combinations, we can reveal early warning signs, causal relationships, and hidden trends.
The medical community typically performs comprehensive tests when they suspect something is wrong, which means that there is limited data available at random intervals. This has made it difficult to meaningfully apply artificial intelligence to diagnostics and make health predictions. Most insights right now come from averages across large populations. However, with Function, you can build a long-term dataset of your unique health that can unlock a new level of intelligence specifically about you. The longer you test, the greater the insights will become.
