Zrt Laboratory Fights Breast Cancer With Susan G. Komen For The Cure

Oct. 15, 2010 - PRLog -- Once again joining the fight against breast cancer, ZRT Laboratory sponsored and exhibited at the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure Health Expo in Portland, Oregon. The global leader of the breast cancer movement, Susan G. Komen for the Cure is the world’s largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists. The sponsorship is part of ZRT’s continued commitment to community involvement.

The Portland Health Expo took place at the Oregon Convention Center, September 16-17, 2010. Representatives met with breast cancer patients, survivors, supporters and the visiting public. ZRT offered complimentary gifts, such as hot flashes fans, book marks, notepads, as well as in-depth information on hormone health and balance, bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, and wellness screening.  A special saliva hormone test discount was offered at the event where ZRT will donate $10 to Susan G. Komen for the Cure with every purchase of a ZRT Saliva test kit.


David Zava, PhD, founder and President of ZRT Laboratory, co-authored a landmark book, What Your Doctor May Not Tell You about Breast Cancer:  How Hormone Balance Can Help Save Your Life, which was featured at the Health Expo.   Dr. Zava also served as a Chief of the Steroid Receptor section at John Muir Cancer and Aging Research Institute and directed studies on hormonal regulation of breast cancer.

There are many benefits of hormone testing with saliva. Testing can identify specific hormone deficiencies or imbalances, so often caused by breast cancer therapies. Healthcare practitioners can help monitor patient hormone levels while supplementing, allowing for individualized hormone dosing, and also tracking patient symptoms and progress using ZRT’s comparative history reports provided with follow-up testing.
