OPP 184 How to Read Your Bloodwork PLUS Insurance Alternatives with Dr. Elena Zinkov

I recently visited Doctor and Author Elena Zinkov at Proactive Health Clinic near Seattle to go over my blood work. Why should you care? Most MDs don't have the time and aren't incentivized to go through your blood work with you. And, since I'm a keto eating, nootropic taking, go-getter like you...I figured it would be helpful to go over Metabolic Panels, Lipid Panels, Sex Hormones and more.  If you haven't done blood work in a while, GO DO IT! It's important to know your baselines. Use the first half of this episode to follow along with your blood work.  The second half of the episode we cover cravings and how they're tied to our brain chemicals, health insurance alternatives (for all you entrepreneurs out there) and a lot more.  Enjoy!
