If you’ve ever walked out of your doctor’s office with the words “everything is normal” while you know something is not normal… this episode is your validation.

Women over 40 don’t need quick glances at standard labs.

They need deeper interpretation.

Because fat loss at 40, 45, 50+ is no longer just calories in, calories out.

It’s physiology.


Today, we’re breaking down:

1. The exact labs we use inside VitalityOET

2. The optimal ranges

3. What each marker actually measures

4. Symptoms when it’s off

5. Why it matters for women 40+

6. Its impact on fat loss

7. Real-world lab combinations & how we build your customized plan

This is where the lightbulb moment happens
