Default Test your cortisol levels

Hi,

I do a lot of work with patients with this problem. A good place to start is with an adrenal stress profile. This basically involves a series of saliva tests to determine your cortisol and DHEA ratios.

People with sleep problems often have high night time cortisol levels (stress hormones). This can be treated naturally. A natrually oriented doctor should be able to help you. I'd start there.
