How Lab Testing Will Change Your Health: What Dr. Hyman Found in My Results

Ep. # 151 On today’s episode of Pursuit of Wellness, I’m joined by the incredible Dr. Mark Hyman for part two as we dive deep into lab testing and what your health results really mean. We explore functional medicine, how lab tests can reveal hidden health issues like metabolic dysfunction and environmental toxin exposure, and the importance of being proactive about your health. Dr. Hyman shares insights into major health concerns like cancer in younger generations, PCOS, fertility, and how traditional medical systems often overlook key biomarkers in women's health. Whether you're navigating chronic illness, trying to improve metabolic health, or just curious about optimizing your wellbeing, this episode is a must-listen.
