Brain & Mood
Your brain is one of the most nutrient-demanding organs in the body, and even small deficiencies or imbalances can have a profound effect on how you think, feel, and function. From concentration and memory to emotional resilience and motivation, cognitive and mental performance are deeply influenced by your internal biochemistry.
The Brain & Mood test is designed to assess key biomarkers that support neurotransmitter production, protect brain cell membranes, regulate inflammation, and maintain metabolic balance—all critical functions for a healthy and high-performing mind. These markers reflect how well your body is nourishing the brain and managing the stressors that can affect mood and cognition over time.
If you’ve been experiencing brain fog, low motivation, irritability, trouble sleeping, or changes in focus or mood, this panel can help identify underlying nutritional and metabolic factors. It’s also ideal for those who want to support long-term brain health, reduce their risk of cognitive decline, or optimise mental clarity and emotional well-being.
Recommended for anyone looking to boost brain function, improve emotional balance, sharpen focus, support stress resilience, or invest in long-term mental well-being.
Brain & Mood
These tests brings together four powerful markers that reflect the key systems involved in cognitive function, neurotransmitter production, and emotional well-being.
- Omega-3 Complete provides insight into a wide range of fatty acids, including EPA and DHA—crucial for brain cell structure, reducing neuroinflammation, and supporting memory, attention, and long-term brain health.
- Homocysteine is a sensitive marker of B-vitamin status (B6, B12, folate), which is vital for healthy methylation—a process central to neurotransmitter synthesis, mood regulation, and mental clarity. Elevated levels have been linked to cognitive decline and low mood.
- Vitamin D Plus goes beyond total vitamin D, evaluating your active hormone levels involved in brain function, serotonin production, and immune-brain communication. Deficiencies can contribute to brain fog, low energy, and seasonal mood changes.
- Amino Acids are the raw materials for neurotransmitters like dopamine, serotonin, and GABA, which influence motivation, sleep, stress response, and emotional balance. This test helps uncover imbalances that may be contributing to low mood or mental fatigue.
Whether you're experiencing stress, struggling with mental clarity, or simply want to support long-term brain health, this test gives you the insight to better understand what your brain needs to function at its best.
Recommended for anyone dealing with low mood, cognitive fatigue, anxiety, stress, or seeking to optimise brain performance and emotional well-being.
Information about tests
Omega-3 Complete Test
Omega-3 fatty acids—especially EPA and DHA—are critical for brain structure, function, and mood regulation. This comprehensive test assesses your overall fatty acid profile and key ratios that influence inflammation and cellular communication in the brain. An optimal balance of fatty acids supports sharper cognitive performance, emotional stability, and reduced risk of mood disorders.
Recommended for those looking to support mental clarity, emotional well-being, and long-term brain health.
Homocysteine Test
Homocysteine is a sensitive marker for B-vitamin status, especially B6, B12, and folate—nutrients essential for brain function, memory, and mood balance. Elevated levels may indicate impaired methylation, which affects neurotransmitter production and brain detoxification. Monitoring homocysteine helps you stay ahead of cognitive decline and mood imbalances.
Recommended for anyone concerned with memory, focus, or mood issues, or looking to optimise brain function through better B-vitamin balance.
Vitamin D Plus Test
Vitamin D plays a crucial role in mood regulation and cognitive function. Deficiency is linked to symptoms of low mood, brain fog, and increased risk of neurological disorders. This test goes beyond standard vitamin D levels to also assess a marker of vitamin D metabolism—giving you a fuller picture of how effectively your body is activating and using this vital nutrient.
Recommended for individuals experiencing low energy, mood fluctuations, or cognitive fatigue—especially in colder months or with limited sun exposure.
Amino Acids Test
Amino acids are the building blocks for neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and GABA, which regulate mood, motivation, and mental clarity. This test evaluates your amino acid profile, identifying imbalances that may contribute to anxiety, low mood, brain fog, or sleep disturbances. Optimising these levels can sharpen thinking, enhance resilience, and improve emotional balance.
Recommended for those experiencing stress, mental fatigue, or emotional imbalance, or looking to support optimal cognitive and mood function.
