DRYour doctor told you your labs are “normal.”
But did they check these 8 numbers?
Because “normal” and “optimal” are two very different things and most routine blood panels won’t show you what’s actually brewing beneath the surface.
Here’s what I look for that most labs don’t flag:
TG:HDL ratio tells me if your cells are resisting insulin years before your HbA1c ever moves.
Neutrophil:Lymphocyte ratio is a silent alarm for chronic inflammation quietly damaging your tissues every single day
.
HOMA-IR can reveal pre-diabetic metabolism a decade before you’d ever get a diagnosis.
ApoB is the cardiovascular marker that actually predicts heart attacks your LDL often misses it entirely.
Free T3:Reverse T3 explains why you feel hypothyroid when your TSH looks “fine” on paper.
LP(a) is a genetic risk marker that statins cannot fix, 1 in 5 people carry it, and almost nobody is ever tested for it.
Homocysteine silently erodes your vessel walls and predicts stroke better than cholesterol yet it’s never on a routine panel.
Fasting insulin is the cheapest test your doctor almost never orders and it can catch diabetes brewing 10 years early.
