Show Notes

In today's episode, I'm joined by Dr. Cory Tichauer, founder of Bear Creek Naturopathic Clinic and co-founder of Jivora Health.

We center our conversation around a new at-home specialty lab testing kit through Jivora Health that utilizes Armin Labs in Germany.  This innovative option allows individuals to order specialty labs without a doctor's order, collect samples from the comfort of home and send them directly in for analysis.  For many navigating this illness, access to specialty lab testing can be one of the biggest barriers and this model is designed to increase accessibility while maintaining quality. 

Dr. Cory explains how these test kits work, the different panel options currently available, pricing, and how individuals can begin discerning which testing approach may be most appropriate for their personal health journey.  

In addition to our discussion on testing, we explore the role of high-dose vitamin C in functional and integrative medicine.  Dr. Cory shares clinical insight into how it is being used to support those going through chronic conditions. We talk about how this approach differs from standard over-the-counter supplementation. 

This episode is all about education and empowerment.

Special Offer: Dr. Cory is offering a 10% discount on any Jivora Health at-home testing kits or supplements.  To redeem, use code Tanya10 at checkout on the Jivora Health Website.
