If you’ve been feeling anxious, low, irritable, or emotionally flat it might be time to dig deeper. Emotional health isn’t just about mindset. It’s a reflection of your biology, chemistry, and environment. Here's what functional testing can help uncover:
🔹 Cortisol Levels: Dysregulated cortisol (your stress hormone) can lead to mood swings, anxiety, fatigue, and even panic attacks, especially when it spikes or crashes at the wrong times of day.
🔹 Neurotransmitter Imbalances: Low serotonin, GABA, or dopamine can affect mood, focus, sleep, and motivation. Testing can help guide targeted nutritional or lifestyle support to support these brain chemicals.
🔹 Micronutrient Deficiencies: Deficiencies in magnesium, B vitamins, zinc, and omega-3s can all impact your mood, cognitive clarity, and how you respond to stress.
🔹 Gut Health Markers: Your gut produces around 90% of your serotonin. Dysbiosis, leaky gut, or inflammation in the gut can lead to mood symptoms like irritability, depression, and emotional instability.
