Unlock new insights into your health with kits and …
Tami Oberbroeckling, PA-C, founder of Tampa Bay Total Wellness, recently joined Gayle Guyardo on the globally syndicated health and wellness show Bloom to discuss how she takes a deeper dive into her patients' health using advanced testing from Physicians Lab. Unlike standard blood tests, these specialized health kits offer a more comprehensive look at the body’s metabolic processes through a 24-hour urine study.
What Makes This Test Unique?
Many hormones and their metabolites cannot be accurately measured in the blood, making traditional testing methods insufficient for detecting potential health concerns. Instead, this deep-dive urine study reveals:
Negative hormones and metabolites that could signal early warning signs of serious metabolic diseases.
Specific markers that standard tests often miss, providing a more detailed understanding of overall health.
Essential insights for individuals with a family or personal history of cancer, allowing them to closely monitor their body's response to hormones and medications.
Real-Life Impact: How It Helped Gayle Guyardo
Gayle shared her personal experience with the testing, highlighting the significant impact it had on her health:
Cancer Risk & HRT Safety – With a family history of cancer, she was concerned about hormone replacement therapy (HRT). The test provided reassurance that the hormones she was using were both effective and safe.
Thyroid Health Optimization – The in-depth analysis led to a better solution for her thyroid medication, improving her overall well-being.
Targeted Health Adjustments – The test identified specific imbalances in her lab values, leading to precise lifestyle recommendations to enhance her health.
Proactive Health Monitoring – The ability to track subtle changes in her body provided a powerful tool for ongoing health management.
Who Can Benefit?
This advanced testing method is ideal for anyone looking for a more detailed assessment of their health, especially those with a history of cancer or other metabolic concerns. By offering a closer look at hormone interactions and metabolic markers, it provides invaluable guidance for personalized health decisions.
