Neurotransmitters are chemical messengers that transmit signals between nerve cells in the nervous system. A balanced level of these neurotransmitters is essential for overall health. When imbalanced, they can cause neurological or psychological issues, such as anxiety, depression, chronic fatigue, or insomnia.

ZRT offers a unique approach to neurotransmitter testing, analyzing 14 key neurotransmitters and metabolites to provide a comprehensive view of your neurochemistry. Unlike other labs, ZRT combines parent neurotransmitter levels with their downstream metabolites, ensuring accurate results and more effective treatment plans. This comprehensive testing, available exclusively through ZRT, helps identify systemic patterns that may be contributing to your health issues.

Neurotransmitter imbalances are often linked to common conditions like anxiety, depression, ADHD, and PMS. ZRT’s testing also examines the influence of hormones, heavy metals, and nutritional elements, offering a more complete and precise understanding of your health.

For the most accurate and convenient testing, ZRT's dried urine method allows for discreet, at-home collection—no need for all-day urine collection. The dried strips are easy to mail back, providing a hassle-free way to assess your neurotransmitter levels.

In the complex orchestra of bodily functions, neurotransmitters play a crucial role as messengers that facilitate communication within our nervous system. These chemical compounds transmit signals between nerve cells, affecting various aspects of our health, mood, and behaviour. The delicate balance of neurotransmitters is essential for optimal physical and mental well-being. When this balance is disrupted, it can lead to a range of health issues, from anxiety and depression to sleep disturbances and hormonal imbalances. The Role of Neurotransmitters Imagine neurotransmitters as messengers constantly shuttling information between nerves, enabling your body to react and respond to everything you encounter—sounds, sensations,...
