  • Summer Throwback Series // Why Your Blood Tests Always Look Normal, but You Feel Terrible: The 5 Lab Markers You Need to Start With
    Jul 1 2025
    Hello Friend, Have you ever been told, “Your blood tests are normal,” but deep down you know something isn’t right? It’s one of the most frustrating things to hear, especially when you’re dealing with fatigue, brain fog, or other unexplained symptoms. Here’s the truth: those “normal” lab results might still hold valuable clues about your health—if you know where to look. Your CBC panel, a test you’ve probably already had done, includes five key markers that can reveal so much about what’s really going on inside your body. In this week’s episode of Functional Medicine for Christian Women, I break down the CBC differential and explain how Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, Eosinophils, Basophils, and Monocytes can provide insight into your immune function, inflammation, and even chronic stress. I’ll show you why this simple test is often the best starting place for uncovering the root cause of your symptoms—and how you can use it to take the first step toward feeling better. In health, Lacy Lain, FMCHC, LEHP P.S. If you’ve ever felt dismissed by conventional doctors, I made this episode with you in mind. Let’s start finding the answers your body is trying to tell you.

  • Summer Throwback Series // Breaking the Cycle of Ongoing Fatigue: A Career Woman’s Guide to Reclaiming Energy
    Jun 17 2025
    Hey Friend, Have you ever woken up more tired than when you went to bed? I’ve been there too—dragging myself through the day, wondering if this kind of fatigue was just my “new normal.” But what I’ve learned (and what I share in this week’s podcast episode) is that chronic fatigue isn’t just about being tired... it’s your body crying out for help. 👉 In this episode, we dig into what’s really behind the exhaustion so many Christian women are facing: Hormonal Imbalances like thyroid or adrenal issues that drain your energy. Nutrient Deficiencies that leave your body running on empty. Emotional Stress that wears down your system—whether you realize it or not. I break it all down so you can begin to understand why you feel this way—and most importantly, how to start healing. Because here’s the truth: your body isn’t broken—it just needs the right support to heal. And when we look at the whole picture (physical, emotional, spiritual), healing becomes possible. And if you're ready to feel stronger in body and spirit, come join us inside The Stronger Collective—my Christ-centered community for women healing from the inside out. I’ve also linked my favorite neck pillow that helps with deep, restful sleep—because better sleep is one of the simplest ways to begin restoring your energy. 💤 Shop the pillow here In health, Lacy Lain Before you go… ✨ Join The Functional Hormone Reset Today!If your hormones feel out of control and you don’t know where to start, this is for you!
