What we help with
The conditions behind “I’ve tried everything.”
If you’ve tried everything and nothing worked — it’s because no one was looking at the picture, only the parts.
The most common reasons patients arrive at Twin Cities Metabolism — and how we evaluate the cascade behind each one before recommending a single intervention.

What we actually work on.
Each card is a real case profile — the diagnostic frame, the markers we run, the questions we’re answering. Click any to see the cascade.
A different way of looking at conditions
Most chronic conditions are cascades, not categories.
Conventional care names conditions by their loudest symptom: low thyroid, PCOS, perimenopause, IBS. Useful labels — but they hide a more important truth.
In our clinic, almost every patient we see has two or three of these conditions at once, driven by an overlapping set of upstream causes: gut dysfunction, undertreated thyroid, HPA axis stress, insulin resistance, hormonal disruption, hidden inflammation. The label changes; the underlying physiology often doesn’t.
That’s why our evaluation starts with the cascade — not the diagnosis. We measure first. The right protocol falls out of the data.
Still not sure which fits?
None of these sound quite like you?
Answer a few quick questions and we’ll point you to the right starting point in about 90 seconds — no reading required.

A lab-testing app hands you a hundred numbers. A national telehealth membership gives you video visits. We measure what they can’t — your actual resting metabolism and body composition — read every marker as one connected story, build the plan with you, and re-test to measure whether it’s working.
Local or remote, the program is the same.
