Dr Carrie Jones chief medical director at ‘Dutch Test is an expert in women’s hormones and health and  talks with Angela about how you can  understand more about your  hormones, how they are working and the potential impact of factors such as stress

Hair loss and challenges with skin can be indicators that there is an imbalance or issue with hormones and this episode has great content for anyone who wants to understand more about the role hormones play in achieving optimum health

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS
DUTCH is an acronym for Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones. It allows a deeper look at hormones and their pathways
The saliva test is a more focused look at awakening cortisol. Cortisol’s number one job is to get more and make more glucose
Oestrogen has to be processed and in the process, is converted into metabolites
There are three parts to the process of detoxification of oestrogen and each phase plays an important role
When you take Ic3 supplements  or eat foods from the brassica family the stomach acid breaks it apart and creates DIM (diindolylmethane) and this takes the oestrogen pushes it preferentially down the 2 pathway
Alcohol has to be processed and if you are a woman with high oestrogen drinking can result in the liver preferentially processes the alcohol affecting the processing of oestrogen
You can have normal levels of oestrogen on testing but be filled with oestrogen mimicking chemicals that are close enough in composition to unlock the oestrogen receptors
Now we have thousands of chemicals in everyday use
The 5alpha pathway converts the intergenic hormones into the very potent androgen DHT
You make melatonin during the night and it is a powerful antioxidant and influences the
onset of sleep
Intermittent fasting can help you to stop eating throughout the day as any food intake affect your blood sugar
Don’t be sedentary the body likes  rhythms and the biggest rhythm we have is the light and dark cycle
The light and dark rhythm affects all other body rhythms and habits

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘The cortisol awakening response should push you into an alert state’

‘It’s such an amazing test especially when combined with other data’

‘DIM is where the magic happens’
