ANALYTES

Analytes are the substances measured in this test, which include:


  • Midnight Cortisol

  • Midnight Melatonin

rESULTS

sample Req.

Hormone levels are interpreted against reference ranges to determine whether concentrations fall within expected limits or demonstrate levels consistent with Circadian Disruption.


  • Cortisol should be at its lowest point around midnight. Cortisol > 4 nmol/L indicates loss of normal circadian suppression, commonly associated with insomnia, evening hyperarousal, and fragmented sleep. 


  • Melatonin should be elevated at midnight. Low midnight < 10 pg/ml melatonin suggests inadequate secretion or circadian phase delay, contributing to delayed sleep onset, light sleep, and poor restoration.

The results of your health assessment have identified specific signs and symptoms that are clinically consistent with an increased risk of


  • Circadian Disruption


Circadian Disruption is associated with a range of signs and symptoms, which have been clinically verified to include


  • Delayed sleep onset

  • Evening arousal

  • Waking unrefreshed

  • Light sleep / disturbed sleep

  • Pronounced afternoon slumps

  • Cognitive impairments

  • Mood disorders

  • Poor short-term memory

  • Easily overwhelmed / low stress tolerance

  • Prone to sickness 

  • Chronic pain

  • Autoimmunity

  • Prone to migraines


This investigation is optional and may be used to verify the need for therapeutic intervention for circadian disruption.


In the absence of testing, treatment is tailored to address suspected contributors based on the presence of specific signs and symptoms and their degree of correlation with those contributors. If testing is undertaken, the assessment will be re-evaluated in accordance with the test results. You will be updated with the test results alongside any treatment revisions necessary.

A salivary collection kit will be provided for the assessment of midnight cortisol and melatonin levels. The kit includes detailed instructions outlining the required collection protocol to ensure accurate timing and sample integrity.


A pre-addressed, secure return package is included to facilitate safe transport of the specimen to the laboratory, where quantitative analysis will be performed using validated analytical techniques.
