53 | Longevity, Preventative Medicine, Gut Health, & Lab Tests with Dr. Mary Pardee

Today I’m chatting with Dr. Mary Pardee, a Naturopathic Medical Doctor and a Certified Functional Medicine Doctor specializing in preventative medicine and longevity.  Dr. Mary is the founder of “Modrn Med,” a medical practice that provides medical and health services to patients via in-person consults as well as telemedicine. Her primary focus is on closing the healthspan-lifespan gap, extending lifespan (how long you live); while enhancing healthspan (how well you live).    I had such a great conversation with Dr. Mary that will help you get clarity on so many important health topics including what lab tests you should order and all things involving your gut health, longevity, and preventative care.   Here are a few of the topics we discuss:   *Recommended Lab Tests for Women *Why “microbiome testing”/ “comprehensive stool testing” is useless. *What causes bloating?  *What is the gut brain connection and why is it important? * *How our thoughts and behaviors can worsen or improve functional gastrointestinal symptoms (IBS)   CONNECT WITH DR.
