Why Test Hormone Levels?

The Endocrine System uses vitamins, minerals, and fatty acids to make powerful chemical messengers called hormones.  Hormones communicate with themselves and other internal body systems, making them essential for maintaining physical and mental health.  An imbalance of any one hormone can throw your physical and mental health out of balance, causing aggravating and even serious health problems.
