Free Nutritional AdvisorThe ProHealth Cortisol Test is designed to measure cortisol levels, which are a key indicator of how your body manages stress. Cortisol levels naturally fluctuate throughout the day. This test captures your daily cortisol rhythm and provides insights on your unique stress profile.
What is cortisol?
Cortisol is produced by the adrenal glands and helps mobilize energy stores in the body. It’s known as the “awakening” hormone and is associated with the body’s stress response. When cortisol levels are out of balance, there can be downstream effects that may influence healthy aging.
What is your cortisol curve?
Cortisol levels are typically highest in the morning and lowest when you’re sleeping. ProHealth’s Cortisol Test samples data from 4 different points throughout the day. Learning about your cortisol curve may help guide you in your health journey as you support your body’s response to stress.
The link between stress and longevity
The body’s stress response is an important piece of the longevity puzzle. Imbalances in cortisol levels are often associated with a prolonged stress response. This can impact sleep quality, other hormone levels, and may even increase risk for impaired health as we age.
What is measured?
We measure your cortisol levels at four points throughout the day. This is so we can get an accurate picture of your cortisol curve over a 24-hour period.
How often should you test?
A single test kit provides an accurate snapshot of your health status today. But by repeating the test, you can track the effects of diet and lifestyle changes on your body over time. We recommend retesting every six to twelve months to keep an eye on your progress.
