Labstories
Labstories exists to help you understand your labs and optimize your health. Because of the direct-to-consumer lab movement, there are now thousands of health conscious people who have their results, but don't what they mean or how to make them better!
If that's you, welcome to Labstories, where we help you understand your labs and optimize your health.
This podcast will tell stories about the CBC, CMP, A1c, testosterone, estrogen, cortisol, urinalysis, adrenal hormones, and much more!
In each episode we bring a lab to life with a story, clarify the most common abnormalities, teach you what matters, what doesn't, and show you how to move from the red to the black.
I'm your host Dr. Tom Schexnaildre. Let's go!
