574. The TRUTH About Your Labs: What Your Doctor Isn't Telling You with Dr. Ken Berry

Podcasts
Nov 06, 2025

 

Are your “normal” labs keeping you sick? Most doctors say your labs are fine… but what if “normal” isn’t actually healthy? In this conversation with Dr. Ken Berry, we dig into the truth behind standard lab ranges, why your symptoms matter more than your numbers, and how to become lab literate so you can finally advocate for your own health. We unpack the lies that keep patients stuck, the pharmaceutical influence behind lab ranges, and the one “nuclear option” you can use when your doctor refuses to order the tests you need.

Dr. Berry and I also break down what optimal really looks like and why it’s time to stop settling for “average.” If you’ve ever felt dismissed, unheard, or told your labs are “fine” when you know something is off, this episode will change the way you look at your results forever.
