Understand how your body reacts to stress
Cortisol is a stress hormone that mobilizes energy and helps the body adapt to a stressful environment.
However, if cortisol levels in the body are consistently high, it affects physical and mental processes.
Determining cortisol in saliva is a simple and non-invasive method for examining the level of the stress hormone.
Why saliva? 
– The sample collection process is simple and non-invasive
– It is possible to collect several samples at different times of the day
– Salivary cortisol is less susceptible to stress-induced spikes
– Free cortisol is measured in saliva, not protein-bound cortisol
– Useful for studying sleep and stress (taking into account circadian rhythms)
