Sleep Balance Kit

More than 60 million Americans suffer from some degree of sleep loss. It’s no surprise that many of us are still unaware of the connection between hormones and sleep.

Common hormone-related causes of sleep loss:

  • High cortisol results in insomnia, anxiety, sugar cravings, feeling tired but wired & increased belly fat
  • Low Melatonin results in excessive fatigue, depression, anxiety & insomnia

To restore the vital balance of hormones, you need to start with an accurate measurement of hormone levels.

The Sleep Balance Take Home Hormone Kit includes:

A dried urine test to measure Melatonin levels ( Melatonin (MT6s x 4))
A dried urine test to measure Cortisol levels (Free Cortisol (C x 4))

This kit is available in-store or for purchase online.

Test Details

The Sleep Balance Take Home Hormone Kit is a simple urine test requiring urine collection on test strips at 4 times throughout the day that are representative of the peaks and troughs of melatonin and cortisol production.

Urine collection upon awakening measures the nighttime melatonin level, while the second collection about 2 hours later measures cortisol awakening response. The third collection in the evening should measure melatonin and cortisol when they should both be low and the last test just before bed measures the melatonin level as its rising for sleep and the lowest point of cortisol production of the day.
