Summary
In this episode, Colleen dives into the importance of getting regular blood work to monitor key biomarkers, prevent disease, and assess your overall health—whether you’re vegan or not. She discusses what the optimal numbers are for such biomarkers as LDL, HDL, total cholesterol, iron, B12, and more to get a clear picture of your wellness.
Learn why tracking these levels helps catch potential issues early, so you can make informed decisions about your diet and lifestyle to optimize your long-term health.
