In this episode I speak with Derek from More Plates More Dates all about blood work. He provides a simple (yet comprehensive) guide to help you understand your blood work for both men and women of all ages. He emphasizes the importance of blood work in assessing health and discusses key health markers that individuals should monitor. Our conversation covers various aspects of blood work, including the significance of blood pressure, comprehensive blood counts, fasting insulin, and the role of ApoB in assessing cardiovascular risk. Derek also highlights the importance of iron levels, particularly for women, and the need for proactive health management. In this conversation, the discussion revolves around the critical aspects of hormonal health, particularly focusing on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for women and testosterone management for men. The importance of regular blood work to monitor health markers is emphasized, alongside practical lifestyle changes that can significantly improve overall health. The conversation highlights the necessity of understanding hormonal balance, the implications of lifestyle choices, and the role of professional guidance in managing health effectively. In this conversation, Derek and J discuss the importance of movement in daily life, the complexities and misconceptions surrounding GLP-1 medications, and the innovative approach of Marek Health in providing accessible health management.
