The DUTCH test is a 24 hour urine sample test that tells us not only how your hormone levels fluctuate to identify your imbalances but pathways and metabolites (break down of hormones) to tell us WHY those imbalances are occurring so we can address the root causes of your symptoms like weight gain, weight loss resistance, hot flashes, night sweats, bloating, irritability, loss of muscle tone and poor energy.
The cost includes shipping (both ways) plus our metabolic and hormonal symptom assessment. We do these assessments to gain a better understanding of what your body has been through, health history and past and current diet.
This is so we can provide you with a written document explaining your results of each hormone and section of the test and a suggested plan of action to help you address the root cause of your problem and finally reach your goals!
We offer an optional complimentary zoom call to discuss your results further and answer all the questions you may have.

Perimenopause Fat Loss + The Vagus Nerve | MMP Ep. 120
lundi 26 août 2024 • Durée 50:27
You know how much we LOVE to talk about Stress here at Vitality. We often talk about cortisol and the actions that take place in your body to produce cortisol and what happens once it has been released, but how does our body identify things as stressors?
Coach Chelsey and I did a webinar in the Facebook Community so I had to dive into it on the podcast because it was too good not to share with everyone!
I always say “you think you are fine - but your body is not fine” - this will help you really understand what I mean by that.
I cover:
- What the Vagus nerve is
- How it influences your hormones + ability to lose
weight
- Heart rate variability
- How to improve your vagal tone to help you feel great and lose weight!
To get the guide that goes with this podcast head the Facebook community (where we also have 100s of webinars and guides for you tackle your hormones and your waistline!)

lundi 28 août 2023 • Durée 27:20
How much do you hate that you get partway through your health and fitness journey and then you quit or something comes up? Or when you get to your health and fitness goal just to gain all the weight back?
This is a common issue we see in a lot of women—they haven't developed the necessary accountability! It is the secret sauce to success.
So today, we cover the different types of accountability and how to develop them so this doesn't happen again!

How to Get Over Your Fear of the Gym (feat. Andrew Coates) | MMP Ep.20
Épisode 20
lundi 21 août 2023 • Durée 52:37
Today I had the pleasure of having my friend Andrew Coates on the podcast! He is a personal trainer and online coach who promotes strength for everyone.
Andrew writes for popular fitness publications including Men's Health, Muscle and Fitness, T-Nation, BarBend, Generation Iron, and Kabuki Strength. He is a speaker at events all over North America and is the cofounder of his own event The Evolve Strength - Business and Coaching Conference.
He has great authority in the health and fitness space and we touched on a variety of topics, including:
The truth about gym culture
How to prioritize your health and fitness when you are a busy mom or someone who is constantly taking care of others
How we don't have to "earn" our right to rest
How to start your fitness journey when you are nervous to start going to the gym
I'm really excited for you all to listen, so let's get into the episode!
Cortisol gets a really bad rap, but it is a VERY important hormone. It's just when we let it get out of control (*cough cough* which is most of us) that we start to experience a ton of issues—including weight gain around our middle.
Cortisol is like the puppeteer that controls literally all the other hormones in your body in some way, shape, or form.
So today I go over what happens when it is high, when it is low, why it matters in perimenopause (and onwards), and what the heck to do!
We also have a free guide to go along with this, so if you want a copy of that just head to our Facebook community to access it!

Hormone Changes During Diets in Menopause | MMP Ep.17
Épisode 17
lundi 31 juillet 2023 • Durée 20:09
We are all so excited when we start a fat loss phase... UNTIL we get to weeks 5-6-7 and start to feel a little less motivated, a little more tired, and typically a whole lot more hungry!
But this isn't just due to motivation waning—it is actually your body trying to protect you through the hormone changes our body goes through when we cut out calories.
I truly believe that it is important to understand what happens to our bodies when drop our calories. This will not only serve to help you recognize and understand some potential issues you may run into along the journey (and help mitigate them), but it could also help you recognize when it may be time to pull back from a fat loss phase (for example, we don't like women being in a deficit for more than 12 weeks at a time) or when your body is trying to tell you when it is not comfortable!
So listen in to find out what happens to your body and how to work WITH your body for fat loss instead of AGAINST it!
(01:03) — Today's topic: what happens to your hormones during a fat loss phase (particularly in menopause)
(04:16) — Insulin
