The most cutting edge and comprehensive course on HPA Axis, Hormone function and the DUTCH test.
There is a growing realization among practitioners today that clients with chronic health issues often suffer from stress-related disorders.
The HPA axis (hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal) controls the production of hormones which affect all major systems in our bodies, including cardiovascular activity and immune function; for this reason particularly assessing imbalances within it can be essential when working on restoring your physical well being by correcting any hormonal deficiencies found through functional lab testing or supplementation if necessary.
There are numerous possibilities as to why cortisol levels may become elevated such as low DHEA hormone production due primarily from age factors while others have had more affects caused by a stress filled lifestyle.
Knowing why the body is adapting to stress in a particular way and which dietary and lifestyle interventions and nutritional supplements can be used to improve each scenario, is knowledge that provides you, as the practitioner, with insight that increases your ability to assist your clients in reaching their health goals.

The course contains 14 hours of video teaching. So if you watch it from start to finish, that’s how long it would take to complete, plus 5-10 minutes per module for quizzes.
