276. Our honest experience with Inside Tracker Blood Tests and what we've learned and changed from it

Crystal Paine Show

Welcome to this week’s episode where, as teased last week, Jesse and I discuss our latest experience with InsideTracker! If you’re at all curious about how a detailed bloodwork panel could impact your health, you’re in the right place! InsideTracker offers a comprehensive look into your body’s inner workings through a massive panel of blood tests, providing customized recommendations to improve your well-being.

Listen as Jesse and I share our second round of results with InsideTracker, what’s changed since our first test, and what we’ve learned along the way. We discuss the surprising insights and actionable advice we received, from dietary adjustments to lifestyle changes, and how these recommendations have shaped our daily routines!

We also, of course, touch upon some fascinating books that we have been reading, including but not limited to Through the Eyes of a Lion by Levi Lesko and The Warrior Poet Way by John Lovell, and why he found it compelling. Listen in to hear about our personal health journeys, the impact of InsideTracker’s recommendations, and our reflections on these enriching reads! If you’re interested in exploring InsideTracker or similar health evaluations, or if you’ve tried other services, I’d love to hear your experiences, so please feel free to reach out!
