    Your Labs Are “Normal" - So Why Do You Feel BAD? | Lisa Rosch

    In this return episode, Kevin and Dr. Jamie sit down with Lisa Roche, NP, N of 1’s functional medicine nurse practitioner, for a candid, practical conversation about why so many people feel exhausted, foggy, and stuck even when their labs come back “normal.” Lisa shares her own journey into functional medicine—after postpartum fatigue, stubborn weight gain, and brain fog were dismissed in conventional care—and explains how a root-cause approach helped uncover what was really going on. Together, they break down what functional medicine actually is (and what it isn’t), why “normal ranges” don’t always mean “optimal,” and the most common issues they see in patients today—brain fog, fatigue, and blood sugar instability/insulin resistance. You’ll also hear a clear explanation of fasting and autophagy, plus an important discussion on how fasting can be different for women depending on their cycle. The episode closes with real talk on GLP-1 medications, mindset, habit change, and why personalized care requires both education and “skin in the game.” Learn more about N of 1 Wellness, ask a question, or explore services at nof1wellness.com and subscribe wherever you listen.
