Stress and Hormones Profile: Summary
Paula Reed, founder of Paula Reed Wellness, is an expert in optimizing hormones, restoring gut health, and improving detoxification pathways. In this session, Paula reviews a 62-year-old female client’s hormone and stress profiles using FDN protocols.
The presentation covers the importance of looking at the whole person, including their lifestyle and genetics, rather than just lab results. Paula analyzes a salivary hormone test showing cortisol patterns, stress responses, and compares them with normal ranges. The discussion also dives into hormone replacement therapy considerations, strategies to support adrenal health, and immune function for the client.
Paula emphasizes the thorough and holistic approach of FDN practices and the importance of continuous learning for practitioners.
