Overview of the Neurotransmitter Test (Small)

The Neurotransmitter Test (Small) measures serotonin, dopamine, GABA, glutamate, adrenaline, noradrenaline and the ratio between noradrenaline and adrenaline, each involved in different aspects of nervous system function.

Serotonin is associated with mood, sleep and overall emotional regulation.
Dopamine plays a role in motivation, focus and reward signalling.
GABA is an inhibitory neurotransmitter involved in relaxation and calming the nervous system.
Glutamate is an excitatory neurotransmitter linked to cognitive activity and stimulation.
Adrenaline and noradrenaline are involved in the body’s stress response. While adrenaline is linked to acute stress and immediate reactions, noradrenaline is more related to sustained alertness and focus. The balance between them, including the noradrenaline/adrenaline ratio, can provide insight into how the body responds to and maintains stress over time.

Do I need to follow a special diet before the test?

For maximum accuracy, you should avoid bananas, walnuts, pineapples, tomatoes and caffeinated beverages for 24 hours prior to collection, as these contain precursors that can artificially increase levels during your neurotransmitter test at home.

How accurate is a urine test for brain chemistry?

Urine testing measures the peripheral metabolites of neurotransmitters. While it does not measure 'brain levels' directly, these levels are highly correlated with systemic symptoms like burnout, gut issues, and adrenal fatigue, making it a powerful serotonin and dopamine test kit for functional health.

Will my antidepressants or supplements affect the results?

Yes, certain medications, such as SSRIs, and supplements, such as 5-HTP or L-theanine, will influence results. It is generally recommended to maintain your normal routine unless otherwise advised by a healthcare provider, so the test reflects your current baseline during your neurotransmitter test.

What does the adrenaline/noradrenaline ratio tell me?

The adrenaline noradrenaline ratio test specifically measures the conversion and balance of your primary stress hormones. A high or low ratio can indicate how your adrenal glands are responding to chronic stress and whether you are in a state of 'burnout.'

What is the difference between GABA and glutamate?

GABA is an inhibitory neurotransmitter involved in calming nervous system activity, while glutamate is an excitatory neurotransmitter involved in stimulation and cognitive activity.

What role does serotonin play?

Serotonin is involved in mood, sleep and emotional regulation, making it one of the key neurotransmitters assessed in the test.

Why is dopamine measured?

Dopamine plays a role in motivation, focus and reward signalling. Measuring it provides additional information about neurotransmitter activity related to these functions.

Why are adrenaline and noradrenaline measured together?

Both are involved in the body’s stress response but have somewhat different roles. Measuring them together, along with their ratio, provides additional context about stress-related neurotransmitter patterns.
