Episode 283 Published 11 months, 3 weeks ago
Description

Are you in your 40s or 50s and wondering what tests could actually help you prevent future health problems—not just detect them too late?

In this episode, I'm diving deep into the 6 essential lab tests and screenings every woman in midlife should consider. These aren't just numbers on a lab report—they're powerful tools for protecting your bones, brain, heart, hormones, and overall vitality.

We cover: • The bone scan you need before you break a hip - and it's not DEXA • A powerful heart marker your doctor might skip • The difference between fasting glucose and fasting insulin • Why TSH alone isn't enough for thyroid testing • The truth about hormone testing in midlife • Safer options and hacks for breast screening
