Adrenal Function and Oxidative Stress
In today’s world people are under constant stress and how they can adapt to stress shows up visually in the HeartQuest Professional (HQP) parameters. We can also get a sense of the degree of long-term stress from a simple urine test performed in the office that evaluates the adrenal status. If in a hyper state the patient may show signs of restlessness, difficulty falling asleep even if exhausted, increased anxiety, inability to relax and chillout and may feel wired.
If the test shows that the adrenal glands are in a hypo state, they may manifest the following: fatigue, extreme tiredness, low blood pressure - especially on standing, muscle weakness, joint pain, a lower threshold in dealing with stress, salt cravings due to electrolyte imbalance and or hypoglycemia. All of this can be tracked over time in the HQP. The NeuroVIZR can be a great help to improve Adrenal function with appropriate adaptogenic herbs.
Oxidative Stress Test
Oxidative Stress TestThis is a simple urine test performed in the office that gives you a color change indicating the degree of oxidative stress. This information can be tracked on the HeartQuest Professional (HQP). This test measures Malondialdehyde (MDA) which is the most present by-product of lipid peroxidation and is an indicator of free radical activation. What we are talking about is damage to the cell membranes. In this case you may want to increase Glutathione, Superoxide Dismutase, Nrf2 or GHK-Cu depending on what is going on with your patient.
