DUTCH Adrenal Test

The ultimate stress test! Have you ever wondered where your stress levels fall throughout your day? The DUTCH Adrenal Test by Precision Analytical Inc, which stands for Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones, examines daily patterns of your stress hormone through testing your urine at multiple times throughout the day.  In more scientific terms, when the body undergoes physical or psychological stress, the hypothalamus signals to the pituitary gland to release adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). This, in turn, stimulates the adrenal glands to produce cortisol (our stress hormone), Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), and Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS). The DUTCH Adrenal Test looks at those specific hormones!
