We can see how stressed someone is by measuring the hormone cortisol. In a healthy person, cortisol should peak in the morning and slowly decline during the day.

Any deviation from this pattern suggests an irregular stress response. This is generally caused by high levels of stress in various forms: physical stress, emotional stress or even chemical stress.  

For this test, you collect five saliva samples throughout the day. We can then measure the level of cortisol at each point to determine how your stress levels may be influencing your condition or symptoms.

Based on these results, tailored nutrition and lifestyle advice can then help to bring your stress response back into balance.

We all have a natural amount of cortisol (the ‘stress hormone’). But external stress (emotional, physical or even chemical) can drastically alter this balance, leaving the entire body out of kilter.

[prac_summary] => Chronic stress is one of the key drivers to chronic disease, understanding our stress physiology and circadian rhythm can really help to bring back balance to our body. [is_bundle] => [postage_fee] => 0.00 [vendor_fee] => 54.00 [dashboard_description] =>

Dear

Congratulations on getting this far. I have reviewed your symptom survey and test results to create your health plan.

Please read through my commentary below to understand more about your results.

Your results

Please find your report attached which goes into greater detail, and the original results from the laboratory.

• Your adrenal function looks healthy and balanced.

• Your adrenal function generally looks healthy and balanced. However, your morning/evening cortisol samples have come back marginally over/under the reference range and the total amount produced is at the higher/lower end of normal.

• DHEA level is over/under the reference range.

• There are some imbalances in your DHEA to cortisol ratio.

Low levels of cortisol are often the result of an imbalance elsewhere in the body.  One theory is a potentially low level or chronic infection in the body.  X and Y have also been associated with low-level infection. This may be a contributing factor and may connect some of the dots between your symptoms.

High levels of cortisol may be caused by a variety of factors, for example, chronic stress, low thyroid function or side effects from medication. This may be a contributing factor and may connect some of the dots between your symptoms.

High DHEA levels have been associated with chronic daily stress, depressive symptoms, high prolactin hormone, and PCOS among others. Increased concentrations of DHEA are not diagnostic of a specific condition; they usually indicate the need for further testing to pinpoint the cause of the hormone imbalance.

In addition to these findings, the digestive issues you're experiencing may be contributing to the feeling of adrenal imbalances. 

Even though these results do not show imbalances, the digestive issues you're experiencing may be contributing to the feeling of adrenal imbalances. 

What's next? 

Your test results are the first step in getting answers to your symptoms. Next, I want to empower you to find better health.  

Please take the time to review the health plan I have created for you.

Go to My Healthplan for the food, supplement and lifestyle advice I have tailored to you and your needs.

In health,
