Anti-Aging and Longevity Treatments Remember when you were in college and stayed up all night drinking beer, eating pizza, and partying; yet you still were able to attend class in the morning? How many of you could do that now?
Many patients experience chronic fatigue, anxiety, insomnia, or brain fog—but conventional medicine often overlooks neurochemical imbalances. At Patients Medical in NYC, we use functional neurotransmitter testing to dig beneath symptoms and treat the whole person. We analyze neurotransmitter metabolites to uncover the biochemical roots of mood, sleep, and cognitive health.
Neurotransmitter testing evaluates key neurochemicals (like serotonin, dopamine, GABA, norepinephrine) through urine or blood metabolite analysis. Urine tests—such as a 24‑hour comprehensive panel—assess how your body produces, processes, and eliminates neurotransmitters rupahealth.com vibrant-wellness.com. This provides insight into your neurochemical health, guiding us toward personalized interventions.
While these tests aren’t diagnostic of specific diseases, they do help clarify imbalances underlying conditions such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, and fatigue theblendinstitute.com theblendinstitute.com.
