Summary
What if the key to better energy, deeper sleep, and a calmer nervous system was already inside your body, waiting to be understood?
In this episode, I sit down with functional medicine expert Dr. Stephen Cabral to explore how simple lab testing can reveal powerful insights about your health. We talk about the five key labs that help you understand what’s really happening in your body, why heavy metals are showing up more often, and how mineral deficiencies can quietly drain your energy.
We also dive into motherhood, nervous system burnout, and the reality that many parents forget to nourish themselves after having kids. Dr. Cabral shares practical tools to help you repair a fried nervous system, improve your sleep, and calm stress quickly when life feels overwhelming.
This conversation is packed with simple, practical wisdom to help you better understand your body and support your health from the inside out.
