canary club

[Guest guest]

Am I understanding correctly that canary club has two labs that run tests? ZRT

and Diagnos-

Techs?

ANd that ZRT offers one testing option but Diagnos-techs has several?

The other difference I see is ZRT talks about

" ZRT uses proprietary saliva extraction methods to remove contaminants that

could

otherwise alter test results. "

Have people found either service to be better?

I don't need any of the thyroid panels, so am thinking Diagnos basic basic test

will be ok for

me, but don't want to throw money away if one is better than the other.

Thanks!

I have only used Diagnos Techs so have nothing to compare wiht.

I initially used ZRT through Canary Club because I

wanted the full panel of tests. Since then, I have

used ZRT directly since I was only testing a few

hormones. I have found them to be fantastic. Their

customer service department is friendly, helpful, and

the lab efficient. They have doctors on staff that

review your test results and provide a written report

to you discussing and interpreting the results of your

test. The test results can be reviewed online within

a week or so of testing and then the lab provides a

paper copy through the mail too.

thanks val and holly--

I'm still trying to decide. i've got plenty of blood tests for my hormones and

thyroid, so am

thinking all i need is the adrenal saliva panel. Did you find different and good

info from the

saliva hormone panel? I thought our hormones fluctuated so much during the day,

as well as

over a months time that unless a hormone saliva panel was going to be repeated

frequently

a one time shot was difficult to draw information from. Is that correct?

For the adrenal panel--am I correct, what I want is the panel that collects

saliva from several

times during the day. NOT just in the AM?

thanks again--

When testing the adrenals, it is best to order the

test requiring four samples over the course of the

day.

Pertaining to the other hormones, likes estrogen,

progesterone, etc, it is best to test over the course

of a month. However, the only labs that do testing

over the course of the month, require a doctor to

order the test. This is positively idiotic to me, but

thats how it is. The only way you could get around

it, would be to order several tests over the course of

the month, but this might become cost prohibitive! I

just make sure that I test at the same time of month

when testing these hormones, but I know that is not

the optimal way to handle the situation.
