TWT: Why Running Just Your Blood Work is Never Enough

Last week I detailed what you should request for your annual blood work (and why), and I still stand by the importance of running those labs, but…

Running just blood work will never catch everything…

For example, it’s near impossible to figure out gut dysfunction (GI issues), allergies, heavy metals, cortisol, and other hidden imbalances through your blood work alone…

This is why Functional Medicine lab testing has become so popular over the last decade…

It is the ONLY way to figure out what the underlying root causes are to the wellness, weight loss, or anti-aging issues you may be facing…

Tune into today’s #CabralConcept 774 to learn why running just your blood work is never enough and what other labs you may want to look into based on your conditions – Enjoy the show!
