Happy Bones, Happy Life

172. Using Genetics for Improved Bone Health | Dr. Victoria McDonald, PharmD


Listen Later

Dr. Victoria McDonald is a concierge pharmacist with Guided Holistic Health. She focuses on education and empowering people with their own health.

In her practice, she determines if medications are really necessary and if there is a way to get off of them. When appropriate, she recommends switching to high-quality natural options in addition to creating a personalized healthcare plan.

Furthermore, she uses various lab tests that aren’t commonly performed in a doctor’s office. She evaluates genetics, nutrition, hormones, toxicity, and much more. In this episode, we are talking about genetic testing.

And Dr. Victoria tells us how we can use it to give us clues to determine the root causes of bone loss. She also discusses how we can each use the results of genetic testing to create our own optimal health plan.
