Why Biomarkers Matter: The Body's Early Clues to Health and Disease

What if your body has been sending you signals long before symptoms appear—and you just didn't know how to read them? In this episode of The Science of Self-Healing, we explore the power of biomarkers—the measurable clues that reveal what's happening beneath the surface of your health. From blood tests and hormones to inflammation markers, genetics, wearables, and environmental exposures, biomarkers translate the body's complex internal language into information we can understand and act on.

You'll learn what biomarkers are, where they come from, why they matter when symptoms are vague or delayed, and how they're used in preventive and personalized care. We also discuss their limitations, the importance of context, and how emerging technologies are shaping the future of health monitoring.

If you want to listen to your body earlier, intervene smarter, and shift from reactive medicine to a more proactive approach, this episode will change the way you think about lab tests.

Tune in and learn how to read the body's early clues—before disease takes hold.
