Hormone/Immune Function

Using the # 205 Adrenal Stress Profile, Plus V you submit four saliva samples; morning, noon, evening and bedtime.  The cortisol and DHEA measurements at these times tell us how well your adrenal glands are functioning.  Plus, we look at the main steroidal (sex) hormones, estradiol, estriol, progesterone and testosterone.  And we also look at melatonin, the sleep hormone, because one of the most common main complaints is sleep problems. Other complaints that may result from poor adrenal function include:

  • anxiety
  • panic
  • depression
  • loss of immunity
  • disturbed sleep
  • thinning skin
  • poor concentration/memory lapses
  • heart disease/atherosclerosis
  • hot flashes
  • night sweats
  • osteoporosis
  • irregular menstruation
  • vaginal dryness
  • painful intercourse
  • slow healing
  • reduced libido
  • malaise/lethargy
  • unexplained weight gain
  • fatigue
  • loss of appetite/increased appetite
  • hair loss and dry skin

As we discussed, most conventional/western practitioners focus on the symptoms and try to reduce these with drugs.  Likewise, the typical nutritionist usually offers the same type of advice, substituting more natural products like herbs, vitamins, minerals and phyto-nutrients instead of drugs. However, this approach still fails to address the underlying cause or condition.  Therein lies the main difference between allopathic medicine (and allopathic nutrition) and what is called functional medicine. What Reed Davis calls Functional Diagnostic Nutrition

Test important aspects of your hormone/immune system and learn:

  • How internal and external stressors fatigue hormones

  • How the adrenal glands control hormones

  • How the adrenals, not just ovaries, produce significant levels of sex hormones

  • How supporting the adrenals often manages the symptoms of menopause, including decreasing hot flashes, normalizing sleep, reducing PMS, headaches and fatigue

  • How convenient, affordable, reliable saliva testing of hormone levels help you determine safe alternatives to dangerous synthetic and foreign hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
