In this episode of Modern Vital Podcast, Dr. Ben Reebs interviews Dr. Claire Zimmerman, a naturopathic doctor and herbalist specializing in environmental medicine. Dr. Zimmerman provides insights into the foundational labs essential for diagnosing environmental illnesses. She emphasizes the importance of including basic heavy metal panels alongside routine labs, such as CBC and CMP, due to prevalent toxic exposure in modern society. Dr. Zimmerman highlights the significance of testing both blood and urine for heavy metals like lead, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium, elucidating the necessity for nuanced interpretation and proper understanding of each test's implications.
Throughout the conversation, Dr. Zimmerman emphasizes the need to comprehend the underlying mechanisms behind lab results, advocating for a holistic approach to diagnosis. She discusses the interplay between environmental toxins, immune function, and liver health, emphasizing the importance of addressing root causes rather than merely treating symptoms. Dr. Zimmerman shares her perspective on interpreting lab reference ranges in light of increasing environmental toxicity, urging listeners to prioritize optimal health rather than settling for marginal results.
