The one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work when it comes to diet and nutrition. What works for some may not be right for all. Diet movements like intermittent fasting, the ketogenic diet, and veganism are becoming increasingly popular and widely adopted. Laura Ligos is a registered dietitian and nutritionist who created a platform called “The Sassy Dietitian” which gives people a safe place to learn and ask questions about nutrition. She works to debunk health myths and help people understand the importance of dietary choices for optimal wellness.

The world of medicine can be challenging. Clinicians and patients are always looking for more options, more effective treatments… and in the end, more answers. What if there was a way to practice medicine that digs deeper and offers a new perspective? Functional medicine focuses on addressing root causes of disease. At Genova Diagnostics we’ve watched this field evolve and grow for over 35 years….

We’ve not only adapted, we’ve led. Join us as we talk about functional medicine, laboratory testing, and optimizing health. Welcome to the Lab Report.
