Insomnia
Chronic insomnia often reflects cortisol dysregulation, neurotransmitter imbalances, or nutrient gaps. We address the biochemistry driving poor sleep.
Symptoms
Difficulty falling asleep, frequent waking, early morning awakening, and daytime impairment.
Causes and risk
HPA axis dysfunction, magnesium deficiency, blood sugar instability, anxiety, and blue light overexposure.
How it is evaluated
Cortisol patterns via salivary or urine testing, micronutrient levels, thyroid function, and sleep apnea screening.
Treatment
Cortisol-modulating adaptogens, magnesium glycinate, sleep hygiene management, and blood sugar stabilization before bed.
