pro-resolving mediators, which function as ”resolution agonists” and
actively coordinate the resolution of infammation.
A New DNA Oxidative Stress Test Gives an Even More Complete Picture
8-Hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), has been added to the world leader in comprehensive hormone testing, the DUTCH Complete™ hormone panel. Healthcare providers and hormone testers will have an expanded picture of their overall health and hormones from one simple dried urine test. The 8-OHdG is a marker for DNA damage in the body. Along with chronic stress, degenerative diseases and cancer can greatly affect your hormones such as estrogen and cortisol. This new marker gives you even greater insight at a cellular level! As the disease state worsens, the 8-OHdG level goes up. Thankfully, there are proactive — and likely preventative — things you can do to improve the healing process while checking your progress along the way.
