Adrenocortex Stress Profile

Original price was: $399.00.

Cortisol is an important steroid hormone that regulates numerous body systems, including the response to infection and inflammation, blood sugar levels, and bone metabolism.

Four salivary samples measured throughout the day give insight into the natural circadian diurnal cortisol rhythm, and help clinicians address specific daily stressors. DHEA is measured once in the 7:00 AM – 9:00 AM sample and a ratio of DHEA to cortisol is calculated to provide insight into anabolic/catabolic balance.

This comprehensive cortisol testing can provide direction for clinical intervention with targeted therapeutic treatments such as nutrient support and/or adaptogens, stress management, behavioral modification and lifestyle interventions.
