Each short episode breaks down one lab topic or supplement: what the tests can tell you, what they can't, and what a reasonable next step looks like. No fear tactics, no miracle claims. Just honest, nurse-reviewed education. Every topic is reviewed by Nicole Kasch, MSN, RN, CFMP. Explore Lab Journeys and professional-grade supplements at www.nursesknowlife.com/wellness-shop.

  • Your FSH Was Normal. So Why Does Everything Still Feel Like It's Changing?
    12 Oct 2026

    Your doctor said your hormone levels look normal — so why do your periods keep changing and you keep waking up at 3 a.m.? Maya explains what perimenopause labs (FSH, estradiol, TSH) actually measure, why one test can mislead in either direction, and why the trend matters more than the number. If your own lab results feel like a mystery, Nicole offers individual lab results reviews — details at nursesknowlife.com/wellness-shop

  • Everyone Takes Vitamin D. Almost No One Tests First
    10 Oct 2026

    Vitamin D is the supplement everyone takes and almost no one tests. This bonus episode breaks down the 25-hydroxyvitamin D test: what it actually measures, why experts disagree on the "low" cutoff, and why the same person can get a different number on different lab machines. Plus: why the dose starts with a test. Explore Lab Journeys and professional-grade supplements at nursesknowlife.com/wellness-shop.
