In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I'm diving into the nitty-gritty of blood work and why it matters for your health, performance, and longevity, especially if you're an athlete, bodybuilder, or serious about your training.Fresh off the ISSN (International Society of Sports Nutrition) conference, I'm joined by Michael Warner, a sharp coach at Marek Health and the owner of Set the Standard. Together, we unpack some of the most important markers in blood work, how training and nutrition can influence your results, and how to actually interpret those lab numbers in the real world.We also discuss the importance of hydration, the context behind the numbers, and why proactive health monitoring should be an integral part of every performance plan. And yes, we touch on the impact of PEDs (performance-enhancing drugs) and what they can do to your blood markers.Whether you're optimizing for gains or longevity, this is a must-listen for anyone who wants to truly understand what's going on under the hood.Sponsors:Tecton Life Ketone drink! https://tectonlife.com/ DRMIKE to save 20%LMNT electrolyte drink mix: miketnelsonlmnt.comAvailable now:Grab a copy of the Triphasic Training II book I co-wrote with Cal Deitz here.Episode Chapters:00:16 Recap of the ISSN Meeting00:40 Guest Introduction: Michael Warner00:59 Importance of Blood Work for Health and Performance01:28 Personal Experience with Blood Work02:15 Basic Blood Tests and Their Accessibility03:19 Interpreting Blood Work Results03:37 Vitamin D and Lifestyle Factors04:08 Focus on Exogenous Compounds04:31 Sponsor Shoutouts06:48 Interview with Michael Warner Begins08:04 Blood Work in Physique Athletes08:57 Variability in Blood Work Results13:21 Blood Pressure and Easy Checks15:01 Proactive Health Monitoring15:48 Whack-a-Mole Lab Work19:11 Preparing for Lab Work26:33 Frequency of Blood Work29:45 Enhanced Athletes and Blood Work33:08 Risks and Rewards of Enhancement35:57 TRT and Personal Experiences38:18 Fertility and Performance Enhancing Drugs39:03 Introduction to Fertility Clinics and At-Home Sperm Tests40:27 Misconceptions About Testosterone and Fertility41:26 Essential Blood Work for Health and Performance44:26 Advanced Markers and Kidney Function46:25 Importance of Iron Panels and Sex Hormones50:16 Thyroid Panels and Additional Health Markers54:56 Merrick Health and Telemedicine Services01:04:22 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Flex Diet Podcast Episodes You May Enjoy:Episode 201: Coaching clients to look and feel their best: An interview with Lacey Dunn, RDEpisode 144: Peptides – Bleeding Edge Performance, Muscle, and Recovery with Dr. Andy Galpin & Dr. Ryan GreeneConnect with Michael:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mawsome_Website: https://marekhealth.com/Get In Touch with Dr Mike:Instagram: DrmiketnelsonYouTube: @flexdietcertEmail: Miketnelson.com/contact-us

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between.  Today we discuss Clint Eastwood, the director and the movie star. Our B-Sides are Breezy, White Hunter Black Heart, Blood Work, Flags of Our Fathers, and The Mule. Our guest is the impeccable Mitchell Beaupre, Managing Editor at Letterboxd.  We talk about Clint's Casper cameo and how that was probably the first thing all three of us saw him in a movie, John Wayne's disdain for Eastwood's on-screen persona, his uncanny direction of actors as well as his smart casting (ahem, The 15:17 to Paris notwithstanding) of actors. Often, if Clint is in one of his own movies, he will surround himself with talent as good (if not better) than himself. There's significant appreciation for his underseen Honkytonk Man, there's honest discussion of his ambitious performance in White Hunter Black Heart (playing a version of filmmaker John Huston), and we three reappraise his Flags of Our Fathers nearly twenty years after its underwhelming release. It's way better than you remember! Additional topics include Spielberg's protégés (from Phil Joanou to Kevin Reynolds to Brad Silberling), Breezy's beautiful rendering of the post-60s counterculture depression, and Blood Work's silly (and wonderful) twist ending.

For some, the path to motherhood comes with unexpected thyroid challenges—and understanding those hidden imbalances can make all the difference. In this Save My Thyroid Health Audit, Jenny shares her journey with Hashimoto's and secondary infertility, two challenges that often go hand in hand but are rarely talked about together. Despite being told her thyroid levels were “normal,” deeper testing revealed elevated antibodies and imbalances that standard panels missed. We walked through the key tests that matter (from T3 and T4) to functional medicine insights on gut health, stress, and hormone metabolism. We explore how addressing root causes, not just lab numbers—can open new possibilities for healing and conception. Tune in to learn how getting the right tests and asking the right questions can move you closer to healing.Episode Timeline: 0:00 - Episode Overview1:45 - Podcast Intro2:17 - Welcoming Jenny to the Podcast3:10 - Jenny Navigates Secondary Infertility3:24 - Initial OB Visit and TSH Concerns4:04 - Referral to a Reproductive Endocrinologist5:20 - Diagnosis: Hashimoto's and Mild Hypothyroidism6:08 - How Jenny Found Dr. Eric Osanski7:09 - Challenges with Blood Work and Thyroid Testing8:02 - The Importance of T3 and T4 in Thyroid Testing9:17 - Understanding Antibodies and Their Role in Fertility11:24 - Addressing T4 to T3 Conversion Issues12:13 - The Role of the Liver and Gut in T4 to T3 Conversion12:45 - Jenny's Frustration with Rising TPO Antibodies13:34 - The Challenge of Normalizing Antibodies13:58 - The Importance of Diet, Lifestyle, and Identifying Triggers14:22 - Have You Done Any Functional Medicine Testing?15:12 - Jenny's Experience and Interest in Functional Medicine Testing16:14 - Balancing Blood Sugar and Addressing Gut and Liver Health16:46 - Understanding Liver Function and Thyroid Medication17:36 - Minimizing Exposure to Environmental Toxins18:27 - Addressing Iron and Nutrient Deficiencies in Thyroid Health19:02 - Exploring the Role of B12 in Thyroid Health20:28 - Jenny's Focus on Sleep and Stress Management21:52 - Testing for Adrenal Health and Hormonal Imbalances23:19 - The Importance of Functional Medicine Testing for Gut and Adrenal Health24:10 - Next Steps: Diet, Stress Management, and Functional Medicine Testing25:23 - Final Words of Support for Jenny's Journey26:34 - Final Thanks for Jenny's Insights26:52 - Podcast Outro27:13 - Episode Takeaways and ConclusionMentioned in this Episode: Dr. Eric' BooksNatural Treatment Solutions for Hyperthyroidism and Graves' Disease Amazon.com: The Hyperthyroid Healing Diet: Reverse Hyperthyroidism and Graves' Disease and Save Your Thyroid Through Diet and Lifestyle Changes Hashimoto's Triggers: Eliminate Your Thyroid Symptoms By Finding And Removing Your Specific Autoimmune TriggersFree resources for your thyroid healthGet your FREE Thyroid and Immune Health Restoration Action Points Checklist at Do You Want Help Saving Your Thyroid?

In this episode, Tara breaks down why blood work is one of the most powerful tools for navigating your health — especially in perimenopause and midlife. She explains how conventional medicine often relies on lab ranges based on unhealthy population averages, which can leave many women feeling dismissed even when they don't feel well. Instead, Tara advocates for interpreting labs through a functional, optimal range lens, offering a clearer, more personalized picture of what's really happening in your body. She dives into the most important blood markers to monitor annually to protect against risks like dementia, heart disease, osteoporosis, and type 2 diabetes — including fasting insulin, glucose, HBA1C, glycomark, cholesterol ratios, and liver health indicators. Tara also highlights the nuances of thyroid and iron metabolism in midlife, why oversimplified interpretations can lead to missed diagnoses, and how comprehensive reviews can uncover root causes behind symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, and brain fog. This episode is packed with empowering, actionable information to help you advocate for better care, understand your body's signals, and make informed, proactive choices for your health.   What You'll Learn in This Episode: Comprehensive Blood Work Reviews - Discover the difference between a standard blood test review and a deep dive into the nuances of your results. Interpreting Lab Reference Ranges - Learn why the traditional lab ranges might not always reflect the healthiest standards. Key Metabolic Markers - Understand which markers are essential to monitor for optimal metabolic health and why they're critical as we age. Iron and Vitamin D Insights - Find out why relying solely on ferritin for iron levels and high doses of vitamin D might not be the best approach. Thyroid Health Nuances - Explore the complexities behind thyroid markers and why a comprehensive test is more telling.   Your health didn't decline overnight—it took decades of stress, diet choices, and life events to get to this point. True healing requires commitment, patience, and consistency. The women who succeed are the ones who stay the course, even when progress feels slow. If you're ready to commit to deep, lasting change, BOOK A CONSULT WITH TARA HERE.   You may also enjoy these episodes: Episode 123: Caution should be taken when supplementing vitamin D, iron & selenium.

Ever wonder how simply eating steak (yes, just steak) could boost your energy, reduce inflammation, and strip off stubborn weight you've carried for years? That's exactly what Dan Sullivan and I are discussing in this special mini-episode on the Carnivore Diet.We're talking “all meat, all the time,” how we navigate restaurants and travel, the surprising drop in food cravings, and the best ways to monitor your health so you know exactly what's happening in your body. Plus, I'll share why I originally decided to go carnivore after battling colorectal cancer—and how it helped clear my IBS issues for good.If you're curious about a diet that strips away the nonsense and might radically improve your blood markers, this is a must-listen. Remember, we're not doctors—just two guys seeing remarkable results.KEY INSIGHTS & TAKEAWAYSCravings DisappearDan noticed that while his meal choices weren't necessarily the problem, the real weight culprit was all the snacks between meals. Carnivore crushed those cravings almost instantly.Rapid Weight Loss & Inflammation ReductionDan went from 203 to 183 in about six months, and I dropped from 185–190 down to 167 in ten months. Bonus: visible abs, less puffy face, more muscle definition.Energy & Clarity SkyrocketSurprise: no “meal crashes,” no nap cravings. My mental acuity soared. Dan's focus remains sharp and consistent, all day.An “Elimination Diet” for Gut HealthI used carnivore to address ongoing IBS issues post-cancer. By cutting out everything but meat, I zeroed in on triggers, which turned out to be a game-changer for my digestion.A Simple Routine: Steak & WaterMy daily go-to is a New York strip in the morning, possibly another at lunchtime, and sometimes a final cut later in the day—salt, pepper, maybe a little butter. Dan just logs his weight daily and keeps it simple.Travel Hacks & Blood MonitoringIt's surprisingly easy on the road (hello, Brazilian steakhouses!). We both get regular lab work and check with our docs. Surprisingly, many markers (including cholesterol) improve.Question the Old Food PyramidConventional food guidelines? Often the result of corporate interests. Always do your own research, test with labs, and trust how you feel above all else.TIME STAMPS[00:00:00] The Carnivore Backstory: Dan's 6-month journey, losing 20+ pounds, and the role Dean Jackson & JJ Virgin played in getting him started.[00:02:57] Cutting Out Cravings: Realizing the biggest weight culprit was snacking between meals, and how pure protein intake solved it.[00:05:10] Mike's 10-Month Experiment:  My IBS, post-cancer rationale for going carnivore and how my steady “steak & water” routine obliterated my gut issues.[00:06:40] Practical Travel Tips: How to manage flights, hotels, and social dinners without falling off the carnivore wagon (butter, grills, and friendly hosts).[00:09:37] Bloodwork & Energy Levels: Dan's regular labs look great, I've seen improved cholesterol and mental stamina. Turns out no naps required.[00:10:38] That Food Pyramid Myth: Why government-backed dietary guidelines can be questionable—and why we rely on data from continuous glucose monitors and quarterly blood panels.If you've ever struggled with stubborn weight, nagging gut issues, or endless sugar cravings, the Carnivore Diet might be worth a closer look.

What if your body was sending warning signals years before disease struck—and you could actually see them? That's exactly what comprehensive blood testing offers, yet most people avoid or minimize the importance of regular lab work until symptoms appear. In this eye-opening conversation, fitness coach Derrick Wellock and his wife Cassie, a physician assistant who recently opened Vertical Primary Care within Double Edge Fitness, share their expertise on using blood work as your body's early warning system.Cassie explains how standard lab ranges reflect the average population rather than optimal health, and why "normal" results might still warrant attention, especially for those seeking longevity and peak performance. The couple dives deep into cholesterol testing, revealing why an advanced NMR panel that measures particle size offers far more valuable information than standard lipid profiles. Derrick transparently shares his personal journey with high cholesterol and how coconut oil—touted as healthy in fitness circles—sent his numbers "bonkers" virtually overnight.The discussion challenges common misconceptions about carbohydrates and insulin sensitivity, with both hosts explaining how strategically incorporating quality carbs actually improved Derrick's blood glucose levels. They also tackle hormone optimization for both men and women, providing a nuanced view of testosterone replacement therapy beyond the oversimplified approaches offered by many hormone clinics.Whether you're a fitness enthusiast who assumes external health equals internal health, someone avoiding medical care, or simply curious about preventative medicine, this episode offers practical guidance for using blood work as a powerful tool in your health journey. As Derrick aptly puts it: "Blood work is like your car's dashboard—it tells you when to act before the engine fails."Ready to take control of your health journey? Schedule those labs, establish your baseline, and discover what's really happening beneath the surface. The insights could add years of quality life to your future.Follow us on Instagram here! https://www.instagram.com/doubleedgefitness/

Have you ever walked out of the doctor's office, blood test results in hand, only to hear those dreaded words: “Everything looks normal!” Meanwhile, you're exhausted, your hormones are all over the place, your energy is in the basement, and you just know something is off. So now what? Just accept that feeling like a tired, cranky version of yourself is the new normal? Nope, not today. Let me introduce you to a new approach to your health: the DUTCH test. Unlike a standard blood test (which takes a quick snapshot of your hormone levels at one moment in time), the DUTCH test is a urine test that shows you the full story of what's happening in your body over a 24-hour period. It looks at: ✅ Estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and adrenal markers ✅ Free vs. bound hormones (hello, actual usable hormones!) ✅ Cortisol patterns (because stress and energy matter) ✅ Nutrient metabolites like B12, B6, and glutathione ✅ Even neurotransmitters like dopamine and melatonin! Basically, it's like the full diagnostic workup for your body instead of a quick glance under the hood. Imagine going for a bike ride. A blood test is like checking to see if the bike technically has two wheels. A DUTCH test? It's making sure the tires are fully inflated, the chain is running smoothly, and the brakes actually work—so you don't just move, you thrive. And here's the kicker: if you were to order all these tests separately, you'd be looking at over $1,200 (ouch!). But a DUTCH test bundles them together for a fraction of the cost. More info, fewer headaches, and actual insights that can help you feel like you again. So if you're tired of feeling off and getting zero answers, it might be time to take a deeper dive.

In today's episode of Barbell Shrugged Dan Garner dives into how you can start to analyze your yearly bloodwork for performance. Standard blood tests can be ordered around the globe, in every country, and are the gold standard for understanding basic health. The normal reference ranges, however, are not giving you the answers you are looking for when it come to optimizing your health and performance. In this episode you will learn: What's the mindset/philosophy of looking at bloodwork for performance if it's classically a health screen? Generally speaking, energy is what every performer needs regardless of their pursuit. How can one look at bloodwork to improve their energy levels? Electrolytes come on every panel, can these be used to look at hydration and performance? You've talked a bunch about the immune system in past podcasts so I'm wondering what a basic blood panel can tell us about the current state of our immunity? What general recommendations do you have in terms of preparation so when someone gets their blood draw they can ensure it's accurate?
