Stress Kills. Kill Stress.

This test measures Cortisol and DHEAS—two critical markers of your body's stress response that significantly impact physical and mental health when left unchecked.  When these hormones are out of balance, you might experience symptoms such as:

  • Fatigue or burnout
  • Weight fluctuations
  • Anxiety, irritability, depression.
  • Sleep disturbances
  • Weakened immunity
  • Digestive issues
  • Skin problems

Monitoring your stress markers gives you the upper hand to take action, build better habits, and safeguard your long-term well-being. Don’t let stress win—kick it to the curb before it overstays its welcome.

What Is Measured

Cortisol: Cortisol is a steroid hormone that is released into the bloodstream in response to stress. It helps regulate energy, metabolism, and immune function.

Having optimized amounts of cortisol levels is critical in overall health, as too much or too little of this hormone can have negative consequences.

DHEAS: DHEAS is a hormone produced in the adrenal glands. This is produced in both males and females but based on the current research available. DHEAS is used to make different sex hormones, including both estrogen and testosterone. Unlike estrogen, DHEAS will not fluctuate based on where a female is in their menstrual cycle. DHEAS levels will naturally decline with age but simple changes to exercise and nutrition routines can aid in optimizing DHEAS levels
