Test your way to the truth behind your health!

Functional lab testing can be a game-changer for understanding your health. By looking beyond surface symptoms, these tests reveal what’s really happening inside your body. In this episode, Jenn talks with Dr. Sam Shay about five types of functional lab tests that offer valuable insights. They discuss how these tests can identify imbalances, guide personalized wellness plans, and empower you to take control of your health.

Dr. Sam Shay, DC, IFMCP, is a functional medicine expert who combines science-based strategies with personal experience to help people transform their health. After facing his own health struggles, including an Asperger's diagnosis, he understands how challenging that journey can be. With real-world insights, practical solutions, and a lighthearted sense of humor, Dr. Sam makes better health feel easier, more achievable, and even a little fun.

I’m Jennifer Payeur, the host of The Wellness Sherpa as well as the CEO and Founder of Nature Provides. I was diagnosed with cancer in 2015 which brought me the gift of deeply reconnecting with myself and nature, re-discovering the healing power of plants. In 2017, I left my 29 year career in financial services to become a teacher and mentor, traveling around the world to educate others on the inherent healing properties found in nature.

Once 2019 came around, I started Nature Provides, whose mission is to transform health and well-being through organic plant-based herbs and essential oils. By collaborating with nature, we can create a healthy thriving world and a sustainable earth.

Welcome to the Wellness Sherpa podcast, where we engage with passionate leaders, holistic thinkers and disruptors who courageously share their personal journey, mission and wisdom with you. Together, we create a safe space to empower YOU to live your best, most vital life.
