At The Nadura Clinic, we offer a comprehensive approach to hormone health, focusing on personalised nutrition, lifestyle interventions, functional testing via a simple non-invasive home kit and targeted support to help restore balance. By addressing the root causes of hormonal imbalances, we can help you regain control over your health and well-being.
Hormonal imbalance can cause an array of issues that can really effect our quality of life. Thankfully there are many methods and protocols that can be implemented to help target the root cause and improve symptoms. Whether the primary issue lies in your genes, gut health, nutrition, liver pathways, endocrine signals, at The Nadura Clinic we use the renowned home test kit DUTCH Complete.
DUTCH offers the most extensive profile of sex hormones and adrenal hormones along with their metabolites. Additionally, the daily (diurnal) pattern of free cortisol (stress hormone) is included, along with melatonin (sleep hormone), 8-OHdG (a marker for oxidative stress) and six organic acids.
Three of the six organic acids build up in the urine when there is a vitamin or nutrient deficiency. Specifically, xanthurenate, methylmalonate and pyroglutamate elevations serve as markers for vitamin B6, B12 and glutathione deficiencies, respectively. In addition, three neurotransmitter metabolites are included to give insight into the production of serotonin, dopamine and adrenaline. These three neurotransmitter metabolites will offer insights into symptoms such as mood disorders and fatigue.
