💡 Did you know that not all stress is bad? While we often think of stress as something to avoid, it’s important to remember that some stress can actually be beneficial. Check out this #ZRTblog, as Dr. Baldwin explores how certain stress hormones, when experienced in the right amounts, can boost memory and enhance learning. For healthcare providers concerned about how stress may be affecting their patients' cognitive functions, ZRT Laboratory offers reliable testing options. Our saliva cortisol testing, the gold standard in cortisol assessment, is readily available. Alternatively, our dried urine diurnal hormone testing assesses not only cortisol and cortisone but also the catecholamines norepinephrine and epinephrine, essential for learning and memory formation. 🌟 Read the full blog at the link: https://bit.ly/3XH1l36 #zrtlab #yourlabofchoice #hormonebalance #hormones #healthandwellness #hormonetesting #stress

We’re honored to work with providers dedicated to improving health and wellness. A recent case highlights the impact of our hormone metabolite testing, where Dr. McAllister helped Dr. Shania Seeber understand the role of the gut and mold in her own healthcare journey. With the right insights and tools, healing is possible! #zrtlab #yourlabofchoice #hormonebalance #hormones #healthandwellness #hormonetesting
Author, speaker, motivator, creator and networker. Passionate about functional and naturopathic medicine.
I love to test my hormone metabolites and in October 23, I was quite literally, the worst version of myself, stressed, inflamed, mouldy and did I mention, stressed!! I did a test to see just how bad things were and they were, bad! Life threw me a few more lemons for the next 6 months, and although I was managing myself, the external stressors were pretty extreme, so it was only about a month before I did the re test in July 24, where I changed a few of the supplements I was on and was able to implement the lifestyle changes that show in these follow up results. I am very open about my experience and I am happy to share my vulnerability if it helps people learn something about themselves and their ability to heal. I am privileged that Dr Alison from ZRT Laboratory is so generous with her time and explains the role of the gut and mould so well. I hope my experience teaches you, that with the right tests and the right tools, you can heal! In this test we highlight the role of the gut, mould, and the importance of testing whether you are methylating the bad 4 OH oestrogen's. You can't assume good methylation just by assessing the 2 ME OH! This test is available to practitioners who order through Hurdle OneDx ordering platform. ENJOY and learn!
