Neurotransmitter testing uncovers hidden chemical imbalances that may be affecting your mood, memory, sleep, and overall mental well-being.
When we have imbalances in neurotransmitter levels, neurons cannot communicate as effectively with each other and with target cells. This results in a vast array of medical conditions, both physical and psychological. Most of us know that imbalances in the neurotransmitter serotonin are strongly linked with depression and mood swings.
This discovery was the basis of researchers developing drugs such as Prozac and Paxil, which are called SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors). Dopamine depletion in the brain is the cause of the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. Imbalances in any type of neurotransmitter can cause significant problems.
That’s why the neurotransmitter testing – performed by Dr. Shiva Lalezar, a respected Los Angeles holistic doctor and family practitioner at LA’s Health and Vitality Center – is so valuable. Dr. Lalezar often finds that these imbalances may be the root cause of many serious diseases and conditions.
