What is the DUTCH Plus™?
The DUTCH Plus includes everything in the DUTCH Complete test and adds an additional layer of analysis by measuring Cortisol Awakening Response (CAR). This involves measuring cortisol levels right after waking, which offers insights into how the body responds to stress, especially during the early morning hours.
The DUTCH Plus provides a more detailed picture of adrenal function and how the body reacts to stress throughout the day, making it especially useful for those with stress-related issues or suspected HPA axis dysfunction. The test also offers further insight by including organic acid testing, which evaluates potential nutritional deficiencies, oxidative stress, gut dysbiosis, melatonin levels, and neuroinflammation.
