THE BETTER BELLY PODCAST - Natural Constipation Remedies, Acid Reflux, Hormones, Gut Health, Functional Medicine 283// Stop Wasting Money on the DUTCH Test (Here’s Why)
Have you ever heard the DUTCH test is the gold standard for hormone testing?
Are you looking for hormone testing, and are considering getting a DUTCH test?
Maybe your practitioner recommended it. Maybe you’ve seen functional medicine influencers promoting it. Or maybe you’ve been thinking… “If I could just see my hormone levels, then I’d finally know what’s wrong.”
Here’s the problem: The DUTCH test absolutely is the best hormone test out there that I know of - but can it actually tell you what to do to HEAL your symptoms?
In today’s episode, I’m breaking down:
- What the DUTCH test is
- Why it’s actually the weakest of all the functional medicine tests when it comes to real healing
- When doing the DUTCH test is actually helpful
- And, if you're not going to do a DUTCH test, what I recommend you do instead
If you’ve been frustrated by hormone symptoms that won’t go away, or you’ve tried “fixing” your hormones without success — this episode is going to give you a whole new perspective.
