You're going to LOVE this one! In today's episode of the Wildr Wellness Podcast, Laura interviews her good friend and fellow practitioner, Sarah Vickers. We dive into all things gut health and we explain the benefits of a really useful stool test that myself and Sarah use, which gives incredible insights into one’s digestive function and the balance of bacteria and fungi in the microbiome.You might recognise Sarah's name from the last time she was on the Wildr Wellness podcast sharing how we can harness the power of blood testing.If you’re struggling with digestive issues, you’ll love this, but even if you’re not - as Sarah says - the gut is connected with every body system so it’s packed with useful info for everyone :)Jump on Sarah’s waiting list for her practitioner programme here.If you’re interested in hearing if the stool test is right for you - book a free 20min phone call with Laura or jump on Sarah's website to see how you can work with her.

I am so excited to release today’s episode of the Wildr Wellness Podcast and with none other than the gorgeous and knowledgable, Sarah Vickers, a holistic health practitioner.What does your BLOOD WORK tell you about your health?Sarah spills the JUICE in this episode and I was thrilled to pick her brains on the topic of blood testing.Blood testing is an incredible tool that we as holistic nutritionists and practitioners use to identify body systems and organs that need a support.The main difference between how we (holistic practitioners), and how the medical model look at bloods is the ranges. The medical system is looking for disease (and that’s what they’re there for so that’s ok!) and we want to catch things early in order to PREVENT disease.We chat about; ➡️ Sarah’s background and how she came to be so passionate about blood testing➡️The different types of testing we do - blood, stool and hormone testing in urine➡️ HbA1C, insulin and glucose➡️Inflammatory markers - CRP, immune molecules, cholesterol, iron➡️Thyroid➡️Liver enzymesListen to this episode in order to understand your own bloods, or why you’d get them! I highly recommend getting your bloods done before listening to this episode and running through them yourself - or feel free to chat to myself or Sarah about having a session to go through your bloods.Sarah's website here -> https://www.svholistic.com and find her on Instagram -> https://www.instagram.com/svholistic/Laura has summarised all of the blood markers and ranges we talk about - check it out on her website SOON

Or a better libido!?Laura Hett is a holistic nutritionist who works one-one-one with clients and the thing that she's found to be the most important factor for our long term health and longevity is managing stress. This means emotional stress (deadlines, family, anxiety, financial stress etc.) but also physiological stress (unstable blood sugars, loaded liver and nutrient deficiencies).Laura takes you through a few of the most common stressors that you can control and HOW to reduce the impact of the stress on the body.
