healthy stress index result

Hi everyone,a happy, healthier new year to you. I am curious to know if anyone has had, or knows of anyone, who has had a 'healthy' adrenal stress index test result? Everyone I know that has had one has only ever had a result of 'adrenal fatigue stage' or 'exhaustion'. Or perhaps you had 2 tests showing very different results? Am just curious about the reliabilty and validity of the tests before I have another done. Thank you.

It could be that if you're healthy and feeling ok, you don't bother to get the test. (why would you?)

I would imagine you'd only pay out for an adrenal test when you'd exhausted all the other possiblities.

Thanks jonny. Thats great to hear your last test result improved. Did that match how you were feeling subjectively?

it was a while ago but i think it did. for me to stay well, the trick seems to be nursing the adrenals along. i presume these test have been given to healthy people to establish the reference ranges. i showed them to an endo once and he said they were unproven.

Not what you're looking for?
