The adrenal, thyroid, and sex hormones work in concert with each other to maintain a state of balance in the body. When one or more hormones are outside optimal ranges, this affects the harmony of the whole system. The Wellness Metrics Profile identifies specific imbalances of one or more hormones that govern key aspects of our health, contributing to immunity, mood changes, energy, libido, altered metabolism, increased body fat deposition, and food/sugar cravings, and includes tests identifying increased risks for cardiometabolic disease and diabetes. The optional add-ons give a fuller picture when there are thyroid issues or symptoms of insulin resistance/metabolic syndrome.
The comprehensive test report is designed to help clinicians recommend effective treatments to rebalance sex hormone and adrenal hormone levels, address vitamin D and thyroid deficiencies, reduce overall risk for metabolic syndrome, and potentially avoid the onset of type 2 diabetes and other chronic diseases.
