Normal Isn’t Optimal: The Blood Work You Actually Need : ep10

In this episode of The Metabolic Edit, I’m breaking down the blood work your doctor should be running — and why “normal” doesn’t always mean healthy.

We cover:

• The difference between optimal vs. standard lab ranges
• What CRP, homocysteine, ferritin, and insulin are actually telling you
• Why TSH alone isn’t enough for thyroid health
• The full thyroid and iron panels I recommend to every client
• How to spot early signs of metabolic dysfunction (and fix them)

Whether you’ve been told “everything looks fine” or just want to understand your labs better — this episode gives you the clarity your 7-minute doctor visit didn’t.
