This non-fasting blood test must be drawn at either 8 am or 8 pm, depending on your symptoms and daily routine, in order to accurately evaluate the relative level of your cortisol production.

Cortisol has a range of roles in the body. It regulates metabolism by breaking down protein, glucose, and lipids; it helps maintain blood pressure, and it helps regulate the immune system. Stressors, such as: heat, cold, infection, trauma, emotional distress, physical over-exertion, obesity, and debilitating conditions can influence your cortisol levels. The hormone is secreted in a daily pattern rising in the early morning, peaking around 8 am, and declining in the evening. This cyclical pattern (diurnal variation or circadian rhythm) will usually adjust to sustained changes in your waking and sleeping schedule.

Instructions and a list of CLIA-approved blood-draw sites near you will be provided. You'll have direct online access to your results usually within 2-3 business days. Storage of your results are HIPAA compliant.

You save $34 off typical laboratory charges! Our greatly discounted price includes taxes, shipping & handling, plus a follow-up consultation with your WellMax Coach after your results have been interpreted and reported by a Board-certified physician. You are always free to share your test results with your doctor.
