Hormone Saliva test & Rejuvenation

5 Element Saliva Test:

I have used this Saliva Test and the accompanying homeopathic remedies with my clients since 2001, just after I used them to balance my hormones. Previously I was on BioIdentical hormones compounded in a pharmacy just for me and I gained 30 lbs in three months and my low progesterone of 25 had increased to over 1000 in that short time. All of my levels increased. Within three months of using this system my hormones were nearly back in balance and I was "sold" on the fact that our bodies know best.

Homeopathics teach your body to balance. If your estrogen is too low, it teaches your body to make more – just the correct amount. Conversely, if the estrogen is too high, it teaches your body to make less and eliminate the excess.

There is a major difference between Saliva Hormone Testing and Blood Hormone Testing. It is important to know that the Saliva Test measures usable or unbound hormones, while the Blood Hormone Test measures Bound and unbound hormones. Bound hormones are on their way OUT of your body and should not be measured. It is not possible to separate the bound from the unbound in the blood test, so it becomes obvious that the Saliva Hormone Test is the most accurate and safe way to test your hormones.

The Saliva Hormone Test is easy to do. You simply order it from my office or pick it up and you collect the saliva samples in the comfort of your home. Menstruating women collect saliva on day 19, 20, 21 or 22 of their cycle. Non menstruating women ideally collect their saliva on the new moon or on day one of the calendar month. The test is sent to the lab and you obtain your results from me in about two weeks. You will receive a comprehensive results package with suggestions for balancing with homeopathics, neuro emotional remedies, and any supplements.

The test is also based on the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Body Clock. The specimen testing time corresponds to an element meridian, organ, gland related to adrenal function and cortisol levels. All Elements Are Tested.

• 8 a.m. — Stomach (Earth)
• noon — Heart (Fire)
• 4 p.m. — Bladder (Water)
• 8 p.m. — Thyroid (Fire)
• 2 a.m. — Liver (Wood)

This advanced 5 Element Circadian Saliva Test Includes the following:

• 5 Cortisol testing times - Adrenal Stress Index
• Fasting Insulin
• SIgA
• Gliaden ab
• DHEA
• 17OH Progesterone
• P1 Progesterone
• Estrone
• Estradiol
• Estriol
• FSH
• LH

• Free Testosterone

An expanded kit will also test for Food Intolerances and Parasites by saliva and stool testing. Hormone saliva testing is accurate and proven. By assessing hormones at specific times related to the Chinese Body Clock the accuracy of the test is enhanced and the health of the organ, gland and meridian are revealed.

The 5 Element Chinese Body Clock:

There are two product lines. EndoPure is taken under the tongue and NuFem is in a liposome cream base.

• NuFem and EndoPure are over 90% successful in clinical testing of 1,000 patients, before and after use.
• Nufem and EndoPure do not replace hormones like synthetic and so-called bio-identical, or natural hormones. All HRT shuts down the body's ability to make its own hormones.
• No toxic side-effects.
• Does not contain active hormones.

Healing the Endocrine System:
Hormone imbalances, from PMS to post-menopausal complaints, plague women of all ages. Men also suffer hormonal imbalances, which can lead to either aggression on one hand or to depression and low libido on the other. The Homeopathic Hormone Rejuvenation System is designed to balance hormones using nontoxic homeopathic remedies in place of either natural or synthetic hormone replacement. Recent evidence in medical literature has brought to our attention the side effects of synthetic hormone replacement. However, the results of accurate saliva testing shows that natural hormone replacement can also cause significant symptoms, including abnormal and toxic hormone levels and liver congestion.
In the Homeopathic Hormone Rejuvenation program, it is important to detoxify the body, particularly the liver, followed by using Nufem, EndoPure and Neuro-Emotional Remedies (NER) to balance hormones, emotions and nervous system.
The particular hormones we are concerned with are the steroid hormones of estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, pregnenolone, DHEA, cortisol and aldosterone. All of these steroid hormones are initially derived from cholesterol.

The Causes of Hormone Imbalance:
Many factors can cause hormone imbalance:

• Stress
• Diet: Sugar, caffeine, alcohol, carbohydrates and poor or malnutrition
• Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) or (BHRT)
• Meds: Cortisone, anti-inflammatory drugs, glucose regulating drugs such as insulin, synthetic and natural hormone replacement (includes thyroid regulating drugs), antibiotics, high blood pressure medicines, etc.
• Dental issues: Every tooth has an endocrine relationship. Dental material that is not biocompatible can be the source of hormonal issues.
• Scar Tissue: Energy flow blockages along acupuncture meridians can develop.
• Environment: Exposure to pesticides, radiation, mercury, lead or any toxin.
• Autonomic Nervous System: Causes can be structural, electro-magnetic, chemical, emotional.

Adrenal Stress Indicators:
Stress is one of the major causes of hormone imbalance. The results of chronic stress can affect the body in four phases (if you are in Phase 2 you may also experience some of the symptoms of Phase 1, etc.)

PHASE 1: Adrenal Adaptation
Digestive problems, inability to calm down, prostatitis, increased serum cholesterol, severe weight gain or loss, menstrual problems, sleep disturbances, diarrhea, decrease in sex drive.

PHASE 2: Adrenal Maladaption
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, loss of libido, impotence, bloating and fluid retention, constipation, male or female hair loss, bone loss, increased urination, low back or sciatica pain.

PHASE 3: Adrenal Exhaustion
Fibromyalgia, chronic nonspecific pain, heart arrhythmia, severe constipation, panic attacks or anxiety, bile reflux and digestive problems, depression and mental frustration, memory loss and inability to think, sensitivity to smells, light or sound, difficulty breathing, inflammation, joint pain.

PHASE 4: Blood Sugar Events
A hypoglycemic event occurs when one cortisol level is elevated. If two or more cortisol levels are elevated, a blood sugar disorder is likely to be present and/or a genetic predisposition.

Hormone Ratios:
Traditional Hormone Ratios place women in categories which may falsely indicate pre or post menopausal conditions. Nufem and EndoPure give the body the correct information, allowing it to create its own hormones causing normal hormone ratios.

HRT is based on an incorrect assumption:
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and BHRT, is based on the incorrect assumption that your body becomes incapable of producing appropriate amounts of hormones simply because we reach a certain age. Your body does alter its hormone production as you pass through the stages of your life, but hormone problems are a function of how healthy you are, not how old you are. This myopic viewpoint has caused thousands of deaths from cancer. Natural hormone usage has grown since synthetic HRT has been deemed toxic and a potential cancer risk. Millions of women are now using synthetic, natural "plant-derive" and synthesized "bio-identical" hormones. The problem for the consumer is education about product safety. Natural progesterone, estrogen, and wild yam creams can cause an extreme toxicity in hormone levels as seen in over 1000 saliva tests (Traditional Chinese Medicine) before and after. Therefore, if a woman's normal progesterone range is 100 and she is using a progesterone cream, the level may jump to 6,500 and become a toxic burden to the liver and immune system. Any hormone replacement, whether it is natural or synthetic, actually causes the body to slow down the production of its own natural hormones, including melatonin, DHEA, progesterone and human growth hormone. HRT and BHRT does not treat the cause of any problem, it only addresses and perpetuates the symptoms.

Moreover, life-threatening symptoms can be easily camouflaged by using natural hormones. Viruses, bacteria, parasites or drugs can stress adrenal cortisol levels causing hormone imbalances. When cortisol levels become stressed, a patient can experience hot flashes, depression, mood swings, hair loss, and weight gain. If we use natural hormones, it is similar to placing a band-aid on the health concern instead of treating the cause. A patient with undiagnosed hepatitis C can easily have hormonal symptoms due to the fact that the liver conjugates hormones and the adrenals are stressed. If we use hormones to address the symptoms, the body may stop communicating the symptoms, which could point the practitioner in the wrong direction and an incorrect diagnosis – the underlying hepatitis C. Since women are no longer willing to accept the risks associated with synthetic hormones and are searching for safer alternatives, they are vulnerable to the marketing concepts of natural hormone replacement being portrayed as a safe answer to HRT & BHRT.

Statistics:
Clinical Testing Toxicity Report
Using 1000 before and after salivary tests, 97% of all women using natural hormone replacement have toxic levels on their saliva test results.

Progesterone Toxicity Symptoms:

• weight gain
• hair loss
• loss of libido
• depression
• endocrine dysfunction
• dementia

Effects of Estrogen Plus Progestin on Global Cognitive Function in Postmenopausal Women:
The Women's Health Initiative Memory Study: A Randomized Controlled Trial. Rapp et al. JAMA.2003; 289: 2663-2672.
Findings from the Women's Health Initiative Memory Study (WHIMS) published in the May 28, 2003 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association have revealed yet another downside to combination hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in postmenopausal women. Researchers from Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center found that the combination of estrogen plus progestin is associated with double the rate of dementia in women sixty-five years of age and older who took the hormones for an average of four years compared to those not on HRT. Four thousand five hundred thirty-two women took part in this sub-study of the Women's Health Initiative, which was halted last year when it was discovered that combination hormone replacement therapy was associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke and breast cancer. At the time that these findings were published, data on dementia risk had not yet been calculated.

Why Risk Using Any Hormones?
Saliva Test Statistics Report 2003 90% of women using natural and/or compounded progesterone or estrogens (for more than 3 months) from wild yam, soy have elevated toxic levels, abnormal hormone ratios and cortisol levels and/or toxicity. 95% of women using HRT synthetic progesterone and estrogen have abnormal hormone ratios, estrogen dominance, abnormal cortisol levels and toxicity. 100% of women on synthetic hormones risk cancer. Toxic levels of synthetic hormones may take longer to indicate in serum and saliva.

One thousand saliva tests before and after using NuFem and EndoPure show No toxicity. clinical testing reveals astounding results, including women with a complete hysterectomy.

Estradiol Toxicity Symptoms:

• ovarian problems (tumors, etc)
• breast lumps / uterus problems
• cancer
• heart disease
• blood clots
• depression
• weight gain
• excessive facial hair
• gallstone risk
• dementia

After using NuFem and EndoPure Using the same 1000 before and after salivary tests, 100% of women with complete hysterectomies have success with NuFem and EndoPure Homeopathic Hormone Rejuvenation Program. These test results show their adrenal glands are making the needed amounts of hormones for their body, they no longer need to use ANY hormones, and 95% of their symptoms have abated.

Homeopathy is a form of energy medicine. Each remedy is very dilute and contains little if any of the original substance it was made from. The dilution of the remedy is called the potency and is shown by the number at the side of the remedy. For example 6x means that the remedy was diluted 1 in 10 (x) and this was repeated six times. 30 C means that the remedy was diluted 1 in 100 (C) and this was repeated 30 times. Homeopathy is a therapy developed by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann in Germany over 200 years ago. Sarcodes are one type of homeopathic remedy. They are made from healthy tissue and organs. They bring the specific organ back to correct function. Dr. Dale's remedies contain sarcodes and classical remedies. Only the energy of the material remains because of the level of the dilution. Important Caffeine and mint can disrupt the functionality of homeopathy if taken close to the time the remedy is taken.

Homeopathic remedies can improve progesterone uptake and metabolism. They also do not interfere with the normal shift from progesterone dominance to estrogen dominance during the month. Another fascinating factor in healing hormonal conditions with homeopathy is that homeopathics do not have any side effects because they contain only minute amounts of medicinal substances. However, even though there are only trace amounts of therapeutic ingredients in homeopathics, clinical experience with these medicines shows that the infinitesimal dosages they offer works on unconscious people, infants, and animals. Homeopathy can be utilized effectively for hormone rejuvenation by stimulating production of natural hormones in the human body. The homeopathic substances that are used to balance endocrine and hormonal symptoms may be made from botanical and mineral substances in addition to healthy tissue or secretions of the body such as hormones. Whether applied topically or taken orally, homeopathic remedies can stimulate a healing response in the treated organ, thus stimulating the normal functions of that organ. Homeopathy is not addictive and it does not replace any innate function of the body. It is truly balancing therapeutic product for the body, mind, and spirit. Use is as directed on the product label and be sure to adjust the dosage (lower it) as the client starts to feel better.

Hormone Rejuvenation System Formulas

Homeopathic Transdermal Delivery System
The are three NuFem® formulas. Each contains aspects of the whole endocrine system in addition to Estrogen, Progesterone or Testosterone. This is the most effective way to balance and revitalize the hormonal system. They are in a topical transdermal liposome base and you simply apply the crème to the inside of your wrist upon arising and at bed for a specific number of days.

EndoPure® Pro, Estro & Testos: This is a similar homeopathic product that is used sublingually – which means you put it under your tongue instead.

There are no known side effects for homeopathic medicine. A proving (temporary) will exhibit the same symptoms as the symptoms caused by the original substance used to make the remedy. A patient can have a homeopathic proving if the remedy is used for too long of a period of time, without giving the body a break. So once your hormones are brought back into balance, then you can take them as needed.

Detoxification:
One of the most important parts of balancing hormones is to do a whole body cleanse. You can read more about cleansing in the Detox Section. What is important to know here is that the liver is the place where your hormones are conjugated. This simply means that the ones that are old and used "bound" are on the way out of your body, and the ones that are still viable and usable are recirculated. When the liver is burdened with toxins it cannot do its job properly. As a side note – T3, your major Thyroid hormone is made in the liver – not the thyroid. A clean liver is key to your overall health!
