In this episode, Dr. Laurie Marbas discusses the labs that should be checked for individuals following a plant-based diet. She explains the importance of a complete blood count (CBC), which looks at white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets. Dr. Marbas mentions that those on a strict whole-food plant-based diet may have low inflammation levels, resulting in slightly lower white blood cell counts. She also emphasizes the significance of red blood cells in determining anemia and highlights the importance of their size in identifying potential iron deficiencies or underlying health conditions. Tune in to learn more about the recommended labs for plant-based eaters.
