Why
Should I Have My Hormone Levels Screened?
Proper levels of DHEA and cortisol allow your body to function at the
highest levels possible under stressful conditions. Though working somewhat
against one another, DHEA and cortisol together help your body adapt to
stressful situations. You and your health care provider may also use this
information to monitor changes in hormone levels.
Does
Saliva Provide An Accurate Measure of Hormone Levels?
Saliva health screening is a simple, noninvasive way to determine your
hormone levels. Research shows that the level of hormones in saliva parallels
levels of hormones in blood. BodyBalance salivary hormone health screens
provide a direct link to hormone levels without the inconvenience and
expense of blood collection by revealing the level of "unbound" hormones
in the system -- those directly available to cells in your body.
