Let’s Talk Supplements

I had my yearly physical that my husband’s insurance requires, last week. Our awesome family Dr. ordered a slew of labs for me. Which I actually appreciate. It helps give me an idea of where I am and how I am doing. He has so far supported my decision for the way I am dealing with my health. In fact, at this visit, he said, “I am so proud of you! You are doing a great job!” Woo hoo!

As I said, he ordered a slew of labs. And guys! I was so excited! While I was interested in several of them, there were 2 in particular that I was anxious to see. My CRP (which tells you if there is inflammation in your body), and my Vitamin D levels. Well, ALL but 2 of my labs were NORMAL! NORMAL! This was the first time in 2 years my CRP was normal. And My vitamin D was the highest it has been in 2 years as well…and that is in the middle of winter and can’t get outside!
