Neurotransmitters

What are neurotransmitters, and why would you test for them? They're the chemical messengers that carry signals between nerve cells. If mood, sleep or motivation are your main concern, our Serotonin Test looks specifically at that one marker from an at-home urine sample.

How Neurotransmitter Testing Works

Because neurotransmitters affect so many different functions at once, mood, sleep, focus, motivation and stress response, an imbalance can show up as several seemingly unrelated symptoms rather than one obvious sign.

What Neurotransmitter Tests Can Measure

•         Serotonin (mood, sleep, digestion)

•         Dopamine, adrenaline (epinephrine) and GABA

•         A basic panel covering key neurotransmitters

•         More advanced panels for a fuller biochemical picture

Why Test Neurotransmitter Levels

Because symptoms like low mood, poor sleep or difficulty focusing can stem from many different causes, testing gives you a more specific starting point than guessing which system might be involved.

For a broader first overview across several neurotransmitters at once, the Neurotransmitters Test Basic covers the key markers most commonly linked to mood and stress, best discussed alongside a healthcare professional rather than read as a standalone diagnosis. That's the role neurotransmitters testing plays: narrowing down what might actually be going on beneath the surface.
