FAQ

DHEA

DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) is primarily produced in your adrenal glands alongside cortisol, but it’s also produced in the brain and the gonads (Ovaries, testes). DHEA is the precursor to testosterone and even estrogen. Stress and aging are the two main reasons DHEA declines. Low DHEA can lead to low sex drive, muscle and joint pain, reduced bone density, depression and weight gain.

Sometimes, women can suffer from high DHEA called masculinization such as deep voice, facial hair or male-patterned baldness. In men, it can also lead to feminine traits, such as increased breast tissue and testicular wasting. Other possible symptoms include fatigue, sweating, and acne.

How does SIBO testing work?

SIBO testing works by measuring either the amount of gas produced by the bacteria in your digestive system (with breath testing), or by looking for biomarkers in your blood that indicate the presence of SIBO (with blood testing).

When will I receive my test results?

Generally, you’ll receive your test results – which include a full, detailed report – within two weeks.

What tests will you run?

“Neuro-inflammation regulation

  • I use IV vitamins, nutrients and herbs

Restoring Neuro-Excitation (Glutamate) and Inhibition (GABA) Balance
HPA Axis Optimization

  • by addressing the hormones, thyroid and adrenal imbalance

Often I will run basic nutrient screening for Iron and Vitamin D levels and then , comprehensive dried urine hormones and neurotransmitter testing.”
