What LMNL Health is
LMNL Health is a 1:1 health coaching practice. I work with busy adults who don't feel like themselves — looking at labs, habits, and lifestyle to help them understand what's actually going on and build a plan from there.
I'm Keagan Barnes. I'm a Metabolic Health Coach and the sole practitioner of LMNL Health (operated through Keagan Barnes LLC). I'm a National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC).
What LMNL Health is not
LMNL Health is not a medical practice. I'm not a licensed physician, nurse practitioner, physician assistant, dietitian, or therapist. Nothing I do — not the conversations, not the lab reviews, not the protocols, not the written guides on this site — constitutes medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
Specifically:
- I do not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or medical condition.
- I do not prescribe medication.
- I do not replace your primary care physician, specialist, or any other licensed provider.
- I do not interpret lab results as a medical provider would. What I do is help you understand patterns in the data and make lifestyle adjustments. The clinical interpretation of your labs is your physician's job.
About the labs
Labs ordered through the LMNL Rupa LabShop are processed through Rupa Health and their partner physician network. Those labs are self-ordered by you through Rupa's platform — Rupa's ordering physician signs off, not me. I review results with you to look at patterns and inform your coaching plan. I do not order labs, I do not sign off on labs, and I do not provide clinical interpretation.
If any marker on your labs raises clinical concern, I will tell you to bring it to your physician. That is the correct handoff.
Medical Partner Coordination — when something is beyond coaching
Sometimes what we find in your labs or our conversations points to something that needs medical attention — pharmaceutical support, specialized testing, gut health investigation, or a complex condition. When that happens, I coordinate with a medical partner. Their care is billed separately by them, and their clinical relationship with you is separate from your coaching relationship with me.
What you should do
- Always consult your physician before starting, stopping, or changing any medication, supplement, diet, or exercise regimen based on anything you learn from me or from this site.
- Do not delay or avoid seeking medical care because of something I said or something you read here.
- In a medical emergency, call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room. Do not wait to contact me.
No guarantees
Health is individual. Every person's body, history, and context is different. I will give you my best thinking, based on what the data shows and what we discuss — but I can't promise specific outcomes. Two people with similar labs can respond differently to the same plan. Anyone who guarantees outcomes in this space is selling you something.
