Your Annual Lab Work: Making Sense of Your Numbers
Lab results can feel like a jumble of numbers — but those numbers tell a story about your health. In this solo episode, I’m walking you through the most common tests included in annual lab work, what each one measures, and why they matter for prevention and early detection.
We’ll talk about:
The difference between “normal” and “optimal” results
Which labs give the biggest clues about heart, kidney, liver, and thyroid health
How to track your results over time for a clearer picture of your health trends
Smart questions to ask your provider so you get more than “everything looks fine”
By the end, you’ll feel more confident in understanding your labs — and more empowered to use them as a tool for better health.
