ADVICE

Time Hormone Tests Correctly

  • Do time hormone tests carefully because hormones and cortisol vary with time of day, stress, sleep and cycle phase.
  • Use more detailed tests (e.g., DUTCH urine/saliva) and a practitioner to get a 24‑hour hormone picture.
ADVICE

Use Practitioners For Toxin And Mould Testing

  • If you suspect toxins, mould or parasites, see a functional medicine practitioner who can order and interpret specialised tests.
  • NatureDoc and similar clinics can arrange practitioner-led panels often sent to specialist labs abroad.
ADVICE

Support Energy With Targeted Nutrients

  • Boost energy with magnesium, methylated B complex, and CoQ10 while you investigate causes of fatigue.
  • Add broccoli sprouts or DIM to support estrogen metabolism and methylation.
