Neurotransmitters XL by GetTested
An advanced urine test for an in-depth analysis of your neurotransmitters and biochemical pathways
Neurotransmitters XL by GetTested is a comprehensive neurotransmitter test that provides a detailed overview of both mental and physical processes. The test analyzes not only core neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, noradrenaline, and adrenaline, but also includes GABA, glutamate, and a wide range of related biomarkers that play a vital role in mood regulation, energy production, stress response, and immune function.
What does the test measure?
Core Neurotransmitters:
Dopamine, noradrenaline, adrenaline, and serotonin – essential for mood, motivation, stress management, and sleep.
Additional Neurotransmitters:
GABA and glutamate – regulate calmness and excitability in the nervous system.
Kynurenine Pathway:
Analysis of tryptophan metabolism and related metabolites such as kynurenic acid, quinolinic acid, and NAD – relevant in stress, depression, and neurological conditions.
Enzyme Activities:
IDO and KMO activity – influence tryptophan breakdown and immune regulation.
Catecholamine Metabolism:
Phenylalanine and tyrosine – precursors to dopamine and noradrenaline.
Important Cofactors:
B6, B12 (methylmalonic acid), niacin, NAD, and niacinamide – key vitamins for nervous system and energy metabolism.
Methyl-Group Donors and Methylation Capacity:
SAM/SAH ratio, betaine, and choline – impact DNA methylation, detoxification, and cellular function.
Mitochondrial Function:
Lactate, pyruvate, suberic acid, and carnitine – essential for cellular energy production.
Stress & Inflammation Markers:
Citrulline, neopterin, TMAO, and betaine – linked to oxidative stress, immune activation, and gut metabolism.
Who is this test for?
This test is ideal for individuals who:
- Feel fatigued, low, or unmotivated
- Struggle with stress or poor sleep
- Want a deeper understanding of their biochemistry
- Seek to optimize mental and physical well-being
- Are interested in neurotransmitters, mitochondria, or methylation processes
How it works:
