Metabolic & Hormone Testing
Thyroid Testing
Thyroid testing can be performed via blood or urine testing, depending on the circumstances. We offer highly advanced thyroid testing options, including (TSH) thyroid stimulating hormone; both T4 and T3, (RT3) Reverse T3, thyroid antibodies including TPO antibodies, TG antibodies and TSH receptor antibodies; and vital thyroid nutrients selenium; iodine and tyrosine.
Iodine Testing
Iodine is not only required for healthy thyroid function and metabolism, Iodine is also required for brain function, healthy breast tissue, and is vital for your baby’s health during pregnancy. Iodine deficiency is often remarked as widespread in Australia, rated second only to Vitamin D deficiency.
Adrenal Hormone Testing
Adrenal hormone testing may be utilised to detect ‘adrenal fatigue’; adrenal stress and other issues concerning low energy, chronic stress, sleep difficulties and daily well-being.
Insulin Resistance
Insulin resistance is a common concern affecting our modern society, largely due to diets high in hidden processed carbohydrates and sugar. Insulin resistance may be associated with weight gain, difficulty losing weight, blood sugar issues and type two diabetes.
Cortisol Profile
The cortisol profile tests your daily cortisol cycle, which may be high or low, or both high and low at different times of the day! A cortisol imbalance may be associated with symptoms of low energy, stress or anxiety, insomnia, waking feeling unrefreshed, weight gain, inability to lose weight, and lack of daily well-being.
