- I had my blood and other things analysed to see how healthy I am.
In this video I explain the full process, take you through my analysis and share my action plan to get my body back in balance.
A HUGE thank you to Phil for working with me. Visit his website here: bit.ly/Phil-Richards
Phil works with blood & stool testing, as well as online exercise and nutrition coaching.
I had the Ultimate Sports Performance Blood Test and Stool Analysis.
Phil recommended those tests based on my ’symptoms’ and what I hoped to achieve as a result of having the tests.

Some additional notes about this video:
1. I should have mentioned what tests I had in the video - I had the Ultimate Sports Performance Blood Test and Stool Analysis.
Phil recommended those tests based on my ’symptoms’ and what I hoped to achieve as a result of having the tests.
If you would like testing but are unsure which tests to do, send a message to Phil and he will make a recommendation based on your reasons and budget.
2. I really hope you found some value in this video. I know it was a long one with lots of detail, but I wanted to lay it all out and share my experience, in case it helps someone else.
A huge thanks to Phil for helping me get back on track.
3. What I have shared in this video is my experience and my results. Someone else is likely to have very different results and requirements.
Please do not self-diagnose based on what has been mentioned in this video.
4.. By me having these tests, please don't think I’m doing a Jeff Bezos and wanting to live forever. This is me wanting to live a healthy life and not end up in a pickle in my later years being on prescribed medications.
5. One thing that has surprised me about the eating plan is it isn’t much more than I was spending on food before.
Previously, I was buying many different types of fruits and vegetables, oats, non-dairy milk, nuts and seeds, that kind of stuff and it was expensive! Plus I was still always hungry!
Now all I’m buying is meat, fish and vegetables and it’s coming to the same amount, plus I'm full after each meal, with no snacks or cravings.
6. Who liked the funny weight-lifting faces? I can't carry on pulling those faces if I want to find a boyfriend 😆
I'm about 2/3 done the video, and plan to finish it because I find it fascinating! Our society tends to think in terms of "let's zoom in on this one particular thing" when it comes to overall health and wellness, and ignores the fact that our bodies are one big system, and everything affects everything else. I love when people really dive in, and get a much clearer idea of what's really happening in their body. 😊
this comment 🙌🏼
This is one of the best videos I’ve seen in ages! So much pseudo science out there and it comes down to basic things for optimal health - eat an unprocessed high protein diet and lift heavy stuff. I learnt so much from Phil’s explanations. I would like to get similar done however a severe needle phobia puts me off the blood test! 🫣 Super encouraging that you’ve got such good results in a short period of time too LT ❤
Hi Laura, this was the best video I've seen from you in ages.. really really interesting and I think Phil was superb. The results you've had in 6 weeks are absolutely off the chart so I've contacted Phil! I don't have much money but I wanna find out more about me!
I am so happy to here you have contacted Phil, John. Please keep me posted about how you get on!
You have nothing to feel embarrassed about, there will be loads of women, who are experiencing these symptoms, and will truly be grateful, for your honesty, and transparency, so that it might set them, on the right path to getting well, and back to normal😊😊
Thank you Barbara, when saying it all out loud, the list felt very long.
But your kind and supportive words are lovely, thank you!
I grew up in Brazil, there we do these exams every year, usually when the girl has her first period she starts going to the gynecologist and he will check her health, throughout life, care during pregnancy, menopause, we measure all hormones, nutrients, metals, ultrasound of the organs, at 45 I have a book of all the testa and changes that my body has been going through, sometimes it's a little strange to see your heart changing in size, I used to think that all health systems were like that, my husband who is French said I've never seen doctors like that.
one of the good parts is that this becomes a social conversation, we talk a lot about what happens in our body, we exchange tips on new tests that we discover, the doctors do not receive our results, they go to the patient to analyze and then show it to the doctors he choose
Wow, that is elite care.
Wow, this is amazing!
that sounds like how the health system should be instead of the one stop shop of getting a pill from doctors that don’t even ask or examine but they’re good at typing without looking at you, and certainly no follow up to see how the chosen pill is working.
@@CJ-ft9yo yep - you nailed it - 'sick-care' system in the U.S.
And we pay a fortune for it, too 😪
I never even had any blood test til I was in my late 40s or early 50s. I guess I could have if I went through some channels, but I was never sick, so it was never called for. I made a yearly or bi-yearly visit to GYN for pap smear only. Never had kids and never really had my own primary care manager.
My husband had a 30 year Navy career and had his own separate, fairly comprehensive health checks.
In my late 60s now and I do visit Dr regularly. But I take our current USA health guides with a grain of salt. Fortunately I've been fairly healthy except for kidney stones, I believe due to a vegetarian lifestyle through my 40s and 50s. Now a low carb way of life with animal protein base. Retired and time to exercise regularly. Feel much better than my younger years.
This stuff is pure gold!!! This is THE most interesting video I have EVER seen. Such quality info. I have a biochemistry degree and a Chiropractic degree and the way Phil brought the science together with the function of the body was like I’d had an epiphany. It really connected my 2 degrees and blended them together like a symphony! Words can’t describe how excited I am to get myself checked and feel like I’m actually going to get the results I want on my fertility journey. Thank u soooo much for being so honest and for searching out Phil and highlighting his incredible knowledge. Thank you 🙏🏼 ❤
Thank you for making this video. It will probably help lots of women.
So expensive
I really love this girl. So genuine and honest. A rare female with a heart of gold. So much to learn from her shining light. Doing the right thing and giving care to her elder mum. Focusing intentions on good health and wellbeing, that her dear mum is likely benefiting from as well. I support you and all you do. Cheers and lots of love to you and your sweet mum.
Fantastic!!! So much good information. I think I am going to try some of these things.. well done Lara !!
Good luck with your journey
Wow Laura, sending you love! ❤ I’m so glad you listened to your inner wisdom that something was off and were able to do these tests. This really inspires me to look into my own health even more. Thank you for sharing so openly.
I'm so happy I finally had the time to watch this one!! This is something I would love to do! Can't wait for all the updates and videos to come.
Loved the video and your experience. Very interesting. Can't wait for the next one
So happy for you. I'm glad you are feeling better.
Great to see you thrive again, thanks for the informative and open video.
Laura, thank you so much for sharing. I found your videos last night and wow how inspirational. I’m on a health journey and look forward to watching more of your videos
Brilliant video. Very eye opening. Keep it up Laura! Hope you get better soon.
Really good video. Thank you for being so honest and vulnerable online, and setting yourself apart from those who are not.
Really wish I could afford to have these tests!
I am over the moon to hear about your new found health. I loved this video. ❤
Hi LT, Me and the Mrs love your channel. It's so inspiring and I love how down to earth you are.
I'm doing the minimalist shoes and working up to ice baths atm. Glad you got such a benefit from them.
So pleased for you with the health improvements
this was so interesting, thank you for sharing ! it's wild to think that our diets can have such a huge impact on our mental health
Really excellent and informative video, Laura! Thank you for doing this. I am so motivated now to change with this awesome information!!!
Thank you for doing this video. I've shared this with my wife and I think she could get a lot of value out of doing the same testing. Love how down to earth your videos are. A welcome break from most other things on CZcams these days. Keep on going. Rooting for you to hit 100k subs!!
So looking forward to your mom's video! Thank you for sharing all you are learning.
What a great video. Thank you for sharing - fascinating. As a 51 yr old, newly menopausal woman, I have had a few blood panels done over the last few years but nothing this detailed. I have been making similar changes to my routine through self education not really knowing where else to go. But I see Phil is local to me too, so now I know! So happy to hear you feel better. We all deserve optimal health
Wow Laura, what an amazing video. So informative and in such a relaxing and approachable manner. So helpful and such a vast amount of thought-provoking information. Please keep up this series as I think so many of us need insights as to what information is out there and how impactful it could be! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Appreciating the knowledge!
Phil seems pretty great, really knows his stuff. Thanks for sharing this insightful journey!
Well done you for putting yourself through these tests and taking on the information to make changes. Congratulate yourself.
Laura, you're amazing with your openness to experiment and attempt new things to share it. It looks like perfect timing with this one 👌
Brilliant video Laura! So informative, ill be getting mine done just as soon as i get the money tougher, i didn't even know this kind of thing was available! Finally something that'll explain why im feeling how i feel. Thank you for doing this and bringing this information to us. Xx
Fantastic video. Very insightful. Think I'll start saving up to run my own test with Phil 😊
Laura, I found you when I was searching for fasting inspiration about 2 years ago. I watched your video and found you so inspiring. So even after fasting I came back periodically to see what you've been up to. I just wanted to take a minute to write and let you know that I really enjoy the content you put out. I find you to be very inspiring and just a very nice breathe of fresh air.. Thank you for sharing you. 😊
I'm midway through the video. Big thanks to Phil for the interpretation of your results.
This was so interesting, thanks Laura!! ❤
This was really fun to watch and thank you for being so transparent and open about this! I think a lot of people will find this helpful! :-) Also happy for you that you started strength training and eating more protein. So many people think women don't need that, but we really really do. Happy for you! And really liked that you brought your mom with you along the process
Fantastic video, thank you! Phil is the best!
Wow, such a great video and very interesting, I watched the whole thing! Thanks for sharing all of that. I love how Phil explains all the blood work and tests, he's amazing! I hope you continue to feel better ❤
Wow. Thank you for sharing this information with us. I’ve been struggling with feeling not quite right for years. And lately my joints just ache all the time. Have digestive problems on and off, tired a lot, and I know my muscle to fat ratio is off. You’ve encouraged me to do this testing to see what’s going on with me. ❤❤❤
I stumbled across this video by accident. What incredibly educational and inspirational content. I'd be so interesting in having my bloods done too.
Great video, eye opening really ,so honest and brave of you to speak so openly about your health.
Keep up the good work and wishing you all the best
Thank you so much for the nice comment Kieran 🙏🏼
Thank you for doing AND sharing this! I’ve been thinking of testing my blood for the last 6-8 months and now I’m ready. Keep going Laura!! 😊
I highly recommend it. I'm going to say it has been life-changing, life-improving procedure!
Oh my goodness Laura thank you this video was amazing. It’s totally the journey I’m on right now too. Health is wealth and for me nutrition is my medicine! I’ll definitely check out Phil and you’ve inspired me to go and do a weights session at the gym on a Friday night!!! 🙌🙌🙌 keep up the awesome work and content 🙏⏰
Wow... Amazing work. Amazing video, I am impressed. 😮😮😮😮
This was great. I'd really love to get these tests done. I relate to all of your pre test symptoms.
Love love love your vids, the helpful, relative info and especially the inclusion of your mum, be blessed and keep on blessing ❤ love from New Zealand 😊
Love your life philosophy, thank you this landed at just the right time for me. I will be making some changes xx
Really interesting topic! Thank you for this and all of your videos. I look forward to updates on your progress.
Thank you Noel
Thank you so much Laura for this wonderful video and all the incredible information. I am currently on day three of a fast, mainly inspired by you as i thoroughly enjoyed watching your 5 day and 7 day fasting videos. You are so relatable and have a natural way of conveying things.
So because those videos were so inspiring i thought i would listen to this one, and i can't tell you how fortunate i feel to have watched this through tonight. As someone who has been eating a diet high in calcium rich foods, with lots of dog walking in sunshine whenever i can for vit d, a recent blood test has shown low calcium, low vit d and an xray diagnosis of arthritis in my lower spine, i now realise that i must be low in magnesium amongst other things and most definitely need to incorporate weight bearing exercise, currently i just do pilates irregularly. Phil made me realise that calcium is probably not going into my bones properly and is ending up in the wrong areas. Thankfully i have a dexa scan later this mth as my G/p has flagged this issue up and was intending to prescribe me a calcium supplement. As Phil explains its not more calcium but more magnesium and vit d3 which is required to help this issue. I am pleased that you are now seeing improvements with your health due to the changes you have made, and i hope your mother does agree to you making a video with similar blood tests as i for one would be interested.
Welcome back and good luck bab x
this was extraordinarily useful!!! and so glad that you are felling great.
I am so pleased you found it useful Saqib 😀
I just found you, Laura. You're awesome, inspirational. I wish we had Phil's services in the U.S. He knows what he's doing for sure. Thanks for sharing.
Laura, THIS video. Holy sh*tballs. I’ve been wondering what these tests involve, how to get it done, who with?!? And now here’s Phil. AND he’s Welsh! Thank you for stepping up, showing up and being transparent. It’s so helpful for us viewers. So much Love to you 💖💖💖🍾ps. Many symptoms and lifestyle habits are similar. Very interested to hear what comes out for me. Xx
An absolutely wonderful video - so informative . Thanks
This was the most beneficial bloodwork I have ever seen. I work for Child Psych and I’m going to talk to my doctors about this and send it to one of them since she suffers from most of the some stuff ( Like my daughter and ). Thank you beautiful soul!!
Really refreshing to hear someone speak correctly about cholesterol and it's context.
Keep up the good work, LT.
Very interesting video, thank you for sharing. Hope you’re on the mend 😊
I am a year behind but THANK YOU for posting this! This is the kind of care I have been trying to desperately to find!
Such a great video. Thank you for sharing.
Its good to have your eyes opened, a realisation of issues, and more importantly a plan to move forward (and I bet you feel epic and motivated now).. great video!
Hey Shaun, I really do feel awesome! Like a weight has been lifted from me. I was so confused before as to how I was feeling.
By having these tests I felt validated, and of course, excellent to have a plan of action 💪
good to see you back, love the sweater, nice colors :)
I am an older woman and look forward to seeing your mom’s results. I am so interested in her wanting to be tested. I subscribed.😊
Thanks for subscribing Lucy. We are planning the test and the video for around June.
Just so you know, I'm a bloke listening to your stuff about PMT, its certainly better to know about stuff than not. That aside, I watched most of this last night then finished off watching just now, amazingly interesting. I really wish GPs / Doctors would do something similar to these tests and analysis with their patients, just imagine the long term benefits and less stress on the NHS if people really knew what was going on in their own bodies and could use diet and exercise to the best advantage. Brilliant stuff, really great.
Hey Wishbone, thank you so much for your comment.
You know, I never really paid attention to PMT, menopause and all that stuff, but it's on my radar now and it's made me realise so may women have so many different experiences and it gives me empathy (maybe sympathy? I get confused with the words) now as I realise that each women will feel different and different levels.
I also wish these things could be tested in the mainstream but ... well..... I'll say no more.
@@LauraTryUK I'd go with Empathy, unless you feel sorry for them. Empathy is more overall feel their pain :)
In the UK we have reference ranges for blood tests. This is defined by the population to which the range applies.
e.g iron for a female is 10-300ng/ml, Unfortunately if you are on the low end of the range not all GPs will not provide supplement. This will only make iron deficiency/anemia worse. I think blood tests are thorough but it just depends on the clinician looking at it. So things can get missed. Just recently my Vit D levels were within 'normal range' but on the low end. I've decided to take a supplement because the tank is running low. Patients should be made aware so they can make informed decisions.
In the US, analysis like this is only done by specialized practitioners and is very expensive. I think of the number of people who would love happy healthy lives with an adjustment in supplements and food and exercise.
Unfortunately if your results show abnormal, they won’t treat you until your in disease. That’s what happened to me and my daughter , she should have been diagnosed at 14 because her results showed abnormal and had the same disease hypothyroidism. She was diagnosed on a different and worse reference range than me, I had to get help from a nurse to write in a medical way, so they couldn’t explain away my concerns. Even when she was 14 she was 12.6 and symptomatic and I was 12. The doctor even said knowing my history and other family members have it I’m not going to medicate you, so she suffered for 5 more years. Also when I asked another doctor he said 16 and 17 is healthy, so it made no sense. So many people are living with invisible illnesses. I’m lucky to be able to make sense of mine.
I'm so happy for you! I also lol'ed when you lip synced over your mom. I look forward to seeing her make an appearance on the channel. Take care, Laura, and thanks for sharing.
hahaha, she wasn't too happy with that bit as she didn't have her make-up on 😆
I am really looking forward to her having her blood analysed!
Thanks for the comment 🙏🏼
I feel really hopeful for your future health. So many of those seem to be simple if not not simple and quick additions or mods that will make a huge difference, especially the electrolyte supplementation and possibly the protein. Best of luck in your journey. 😊
Thanks for your authenticity. This can help others.
Love you Laura! Positively inspiring.. I'm talking to Phil really soon x
Thanks for sharing your journey! Really helpful
This is a wonderful video and this man is guru. Thanks so much!
Thank you for this video, so interesting! I've decided to do the blood test with Phil after watching this. I am really looking to my consultation in 9 days time! And I am looking forward to your next video on your second blood test! I enjoy all of your videos as well
So motivating thank you 😊 You are one of my favourite people to watch and loving watching your journey ❤
Thank you Sarah, this comment is so lovely 💖
Thank you so much for sharing this with us! I learned so much.
Fascinating information. Phil really knows his stuff. Respect for being so open throughout this video
Wow, just wow what a turn around in you. I am really looking forward to a video on your mum if she does the weight training as well. Excellent video, thanks for doing this. ps your mum is cool.
Excellent episode!!! Here in the US it is very expensive to get these tests. They are essential if someone is not feeling well. They are life saving for women in menopause. There’s a huge disservice to women and their needs as we age. Keeping hormones and nutrients balanced can mean the difference between having a happy functioning life and being miserable.
I'm so glad I clicked on this video I've learned so much thank you Laura!
Laura, what a brilliant, honest and detailed video. So glad you are feeling and getting better. I'm looking forward to seeing the results of your new programme over the next year. I'm 59 in a few weeks and will be retiring soon from the police after 24 years and 10 in the army before that. I think I'm reasonably healthy but I think Phil is just what I need to see if my body is in the 'bits' I suspect it's in! You're so right we only get one go on this mortal coil and something like this is definitely an investment in ones own health. Thank you for highlighting. All the best, Clive. 😎
Wow, thank you for doing great job for all those years 🙏🏼
I would 100% recommend Phil to assess your current health, and get you back on track if you need it. Drop him a line and see what he can do for you: www.philrichardsnutritionlab.co.uk/contact-phil/
Thanks for the comment.
I need to book it across the pond and schedule a visit with this genius of a man!
Absolutely fascinating, thank you for sharing 👍
Thank you so much! I am so pleased you found it interesting.
Laura, you are a true jewel.
This guy, is more thorough than any physician I have ever seen.
I hope you keep us updated on your journey.
You inspire me so much! Thank you and keep trying!
Thank you so much Ray 💫
thank you - so illuminating in how symbiotic these blood markers are
Hi Laura, I just wanted to pop past and say a huge thank you for sharing this experience. Like what others have said in the chat, this video really clicked for me. Since seeing this I have met with Phil and so pleased with how I am feeling since following his advice. Thank you again, you are doing amazing stuff🙏
This is great to hear that you're doing so well. Thanks for your feedback Kate.
@@WendaRichards-sg7vb Thank you so much Wenda, and thanks for your continued support and help along the way! My breakfast fruit juices wouldn't be the same without you🤣😂🥤
You're making wonderful content, as soon as I saw the VO2 Max video I immediately shared it with my fiancé. I find the realism and honesty in your videos an absolute breath of fresh air.
@colinpastuch - there's a Vo2 max video?😲
Oh! Gotta find THAT one for sure. As many times as I've watched YT health/fitness vlogs re VO2 max, IDK what it really means, or how to go about finding mine🫨
Brilliant Laura . I could relate to most of what you were saying.... so glad its helped and will be sharing this x
I am so pleased you found it useful Jacquelyn!
@@LauraTryUK I send as many women as possible to Phils group. They are both so supportive. I a. Week 4 into my changes . Much better.. x thank you for sharing this. Brilliant video skills..
Thank you so much for putting this out there. I know sharing those results and your struggles is not easy but honestly you’re helping me so much. I am also considered skinny fat and I’m also on my way to experiencing lots of brain fog and such. I know I’m not the same as you exactly but seeing the supplements linked to certain symptoms can really be beneficial for people to try this out themselves. I’m going to do the high protein diet and strength training for sure to get myself back on track!
Fab video of your experiences. Phil was great, so knowledgeable about the blood results which are more comprehensive than the NHS ones. I think you nailed the key factors to good health as you age. And inspired me to begin weight training, which I used to love.
All the best to you and yes your mum should also take up weights.
This is a great channel, and this episode was fantastic! I'm in the US, and I wish you and Dr. Peter Attia (the book Outlive is his) would get together for a podcast. You two would be so complementary -- you are "context" for so much of what he talks about. I wish there was someone like Phil in the USA that I could go to for blood work! It's almost worth a trip to UK to get it done!
Very interesting. Excellent video. Thanks 👍🏻
One of your best contents.
I've learned a lot
Thks
Thank you for the wonderful comment!
One of the best things I have ever done!
This is so excellent, thank you for doing this Laura! I had some similar issues with energy, protein, and thyroid function. I had to go on thyroid medication for Hashimoto's autoimmune, but have corrected the protein issues, eat more and take the HCL pepsin...or lately just do several shots of apple cider vinegar before meals, one shot 30 min before a protein meal, it works the same way. Also, my magnesium was low, so I take that before bed time and it helps with sleep and bowel movements. I take D3 as well, as my depression was up and so I needed it. I use a light box in the winter for 40 minutes at the beginning of my day. Also, since I have pain issues in the cold months, in my joints, I take Benfothiamine, it helps with joint pain or fibromyalgia type symptoms. I have also continued to do the intermitted fasting, not eating until 12 noon, then eliminating all gluten, of course bread. The only real carb I eat is rice, once in a while. So, I have gone down from 64 Kg. to 56 Kg. and have more muscle now. I also don't drink alcohol, eat dairy, and I try not to have sugar, honey, or maple syrup. However sometimes I do end up giving in! I have found that allergic reactions have decreased a lot! Especially itchy skin reactions, and hot flashes have gone away! I am 56, so had hot flashes for about two years, well when I gave up all sweets, they stopped! I get K2 vitamin by eating natto (fermented soy beans) about twice per week. I really admire your plan, and showing us all your process, keep on keeping on!
Congratulations well done and thank you for sharing
Great information and so motivating! Thank you 🙌😃
thank you Julia 🙏🏼
Phenomenal video!! So much useful information and inspiring for anyone interested in being healthy... Now and later on. 😎
Wow, really interesting. I am a new subscriber. I think this channel is going to blow up. Just keep being real.
Super Laura you are always a wonderful ispiration........ brava
Just found you. You warm my heart and inspire me. 🙏🏼
Laura, thank you so much for this video, it's a lifeline for me because I've just been told I've got Osteoporosis a month after turning 55 which was a shock since I believe I eat healthily! I'd never had a broken bone in my life until something weird suddenly happened to my foot last summer and it eventually turned out I had a fractured foot bone( which still hasn't gone back to normal). So i'm going to contact Phil and ask for the same tests as you and hope he can help me, because I've also suffered from stomach problems for years and got no relief from the NHS, I've hardly been tested for anything from them! Hope you are feeling better now from following Phil's recommendations, good luck on your health journey
You continue to amaze. I hope you understand how proud you should be of yourself. Magnificent video content creator and an amazing and authentic communicator.
This comment 😭 💖
It made my eyes fill with water, in a good way.
This was the third version of this video and I wanted to get it right and show off Phil's work as best I could. Thank you so much.
@@LauraTryUK yup nice one Laura.
I learned so much thank you as well as the doctor!
Great info, thank you.
I'm SO happy I found your channel; you are fabulous! Thank you for all the info you're sharing... your Mum is a gem!
This is so cool! I’m just starting a similar journey. Thanks!
