Episode notes
Choose Comprehensive Private Test Providers
- Try comprehensive private providers like Medichecks, Thriva, Randox, or Hum2n for broader blood panels and functional assessments.
- Consider functional clinics (e.g., H•U2N / Hum2n) that combine tests with practitioners to interpret results.
Genetic Tests Offer Permanent Clues
- Nutrigenomic tests give lifelong actionable data because genes don't change and can explain nutrient needs.
- Liz found her genetics prevented glutathione synthesis and felt better after taking liposomal glutathione.
Time Hormone Tests Correctly
- Do time hormone tests carefully because hormones and cortisol vary with time of day, stress, sleep and cycle phase.
- Use more detailed tests (e.g., DUTCH urine/saliva) and a practitioner to get a 24‑hour hormone picture.
