Product Review
The HealthConfirm Stress Hormone Plus test kit will track your Cortisol levels four times in one day. Cortisol is your primary stress hormone which is responsible for feelings of stress and anxiety. Simply collect four (4) saliva samples in the morning, afternoon, evening, and night and mail back to our HealthConfirm facility for lab analysis. You will obtain lab-confirmed results from our laboratory delivered directly to you on your online HealthConfirm profile.
Measuring your Cortisol levels multiple times throughout the day including morning, afternoon, evening, and night is critical because you will be able to effectively pinpoint the exact time of day your cortisol levels are out of balance. Healthy cortisol levels spike up at the time of waking and slowly start to lower throughout the afternoon, evening, and night.
Cortisol is your natural built-in alarm system. It's your body's main stress hormone. It works with certain parts of your brain to control your mood, motivation, and fear.
It's best known for helping fuel your body's "fight-or-flight" instinct in a crisis, but cortisol plays an important role in a number of things your body does. For example, it:
- Manages how your body uses carbohydrates, fats, and proteins
- Keeps inflammation down
- Regulates your blood pressure
- Increases your blood sugar (glucose)
- Controls your sleep/wake cycle
- Boosts energy so you can handle stress and restores balance afterward
