Hey there,

The newest episode of The Health Insights Podcast is live!

This episode I host Lakrista O'Dell, a holistic nutritionist and expert in nutrition response testing who transitioned from traditional nursing to integrative health. O'Dell shares her transformative journey, including how she overcame her own health challenges through alternative methods after conventional medicine failed her. She emphasizes stress management's critical role, environmental toxins' impact, and personalized nutrition's importance in achieving optimal health.

Throughout our conversation, O'dell stresses the limitations of one-size-fits-all approaches and the power of addressing root causes rather than just symptoms. She explains the key differences between food sensitivity and food zoomer testing, demonstrating how modern testing methods can provide more accurate insights for treatment. O'Dell also shares her perspective on using technology like continuous glucose monitoring to optimize health outcomes while maintaining a foundation in traditional healing wisdom. Her insights offer a practical and authentic approach to healthcare that focuses on sustainable lifestyle changes and long-term wellness.
