FAQ

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).

What and Where is the Thyroid Gland?

Your thyroid gland is a butterfly-shaped organ in the front of your neck. The thyroid plays an important role in your body’s energy and metabolism. The thyroid gland takes up trace minerals, such as iodine, selenium and tyrosine, and uses these to make thyroid hormones triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4). These hormones circulate through the liver, brain and several other organs in the body as part of the endocrine system. If the thyroid is not functioning properly, you can develop health problems.

If you have the following health concerns – It could be your Thyroid:

  • Fatigue
  • Anxiety or Panic Attacks
  • Depression
  • Constipation
  • Unexplained weight gain
  • Generalized swelling
  • Puffy eyes & face
  • Muscle aches or pain
  • Muscle weakness
  • Joint pain, joint stiffness or swelling
  • Hair loss
  • Low sex drive
  • Asthma & allergies
  • Migraines
  • Recurrent miscarriage / Infertility
  • Lack of ovulation
  • PMS
  • Decreased memory
  • Irritability
  • Decreased Concentration or ”Brain Fog”
  • Dry Skin, Dry Hair
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome
  • High cholesterol
  • Low heart rate
  • Insomnia
  • Hives
  • Loss of outer 1/3 of eyebrows
How do you know if you have adrenal fatigue?

Testing for Adrenal Fatigue is done via urine or saliva. In either case, samples are collected at home, four different times over the course of one day. Often, other adrenal hormones such as progesterone and DHEA may be included. Both urine and salivary tests are equally sensitive when testing cortisol levels.

Testosterone

Testosterone is the main male sex hormone, but it’s important for women as well, in smaller amounts. Testosterone helps maintain muscle mass and bone strength, enhances sex drive and helps with overall sense of well-being and zest for life. Overall, lower testosterone levels are being found among men in the general population. In men, testosterone levels decline about 10% every decade, but sometimes the levels drop sooner or more severe than they should. Environmental factors play a large role and low testosterone in men is commonly overlooked. Some of the warning signs of low testosterone levels include infertility, decreased muscle mass, depression, weight gain, decreased sex drive, and fatigue. There are many natural approaches to balancing hormone levels and supporting men and women in being healthy.
