Anyone know? I can't find a doctor here that uses the kit. They only do bloodwork and I've read that's not accurate enough to tell if a person has Adrenal Fatigue. I've found a kit on ZRT Laboratories but I'm not sure if it is legit or not.

Any suggestions?

ZRT is legit...bodylogicmd.com doctors use them... Those mds are my new endocrinlogists

Another good one is Labrix.

I used ZRT Lab. It was very beneficial for me to have this testing done. I recommend having all hormone levels checked, not just cortisol.

From what I understand, saliva testing is more accurate than blood testing for checking hormone levels.

Thanks everyone.


Sammi- Will I be able to read the results or do I have to bring it in to my doctor? I guess if it's off then I will have to bring it in either way.

LymeOut, the results are clearly stated with the normal ranges listed. Yes, if your results are off you will need to be treated.

If you want to pay for it yourself, you can probably get one through http://www.directlabs.com/ without an MD's order.

I use them and like them.
