MENGENAI EPISOD INI
In this bonus Q&A episode of my Functional Lab Testing Series, I'm answering some of the most common questions I received throughout the series. We talk about how I think through complex symptom patterns, how to tell the difference between issues that can look similar, and why context is one of the most important pieces of functional medicine. We also discuss stress, trauma, anxiety, birth control, postpartum recovery, bloating, supplements, and why functional testing is about understanding your body (not testing everything). Whether you've listened to one episode or the entire series, this one will help you feel more confident about your next step.
