Who is the Stress Check designed for?

It is designed for executives, founders, and high performers who are experiencing symptoms of stress-related hormonal disruption — fatigue, poor sleep, mood changes, reduced drive, anxiety, or diminished cognitive performance — and want a precise clinical picture of what is driving those symptoms rather than a generic wellness approach.

How is this different from a blood test my GP could order?

Standard GP blood tests typically measure cortisol at a single morning time point. The Stress Check measures cortisol at four precise time points across one day (morning, noon, evening and night) to capture your full diurnal curve, plus additional hormonal markers like DHEAS, testosterone, oestradiol and progesterone that are not routinely tested but are critical for understanding stress biology.

Do I need to go to a clinic?

No. Your test kit is dispatched to your address. The sample collection is done at home using a simple saliva kit. There is no blood draw and no clinic visit required.

How long does it take?

From ordering to receiving your results and completing your consultation, the typical timeline is 12-15 days.

What happens after the test?

After your sample is processed, every result is analysed by a functional diagnostic practitioner. You receive a clinical-grade reading of where you stand across every marker, followed by a 1:1 Zoom consultation where the practitioner walks you through your results personally. You then receive a personalised, clinically grounded action roadmap built around your results and your life.

Can this test be used by both men and women?

Yes. The hormonal markers tested — cortisol, DHEAS, testosterone, oestradiol and progesterone — are clinically relevant for both male and female biology, with reference ranges applied according to age and sex.

Is this the right program for me or should I go straight to CEO Health™?

The Stress Check is ideal if you are experiencing symptoms of stress-related hormonal disruption and want a focused assessment of your stress biology. CEO Health™ is a more comprehensive program for executives seeking a complete functional health optimization approach. If you are unsure, book a consultation and the team will help you determine the best fit.

What the turnaround time?

The typical turnaround time from sample collection to receiving your results, consultation and action roadmap is 12 days.

CEO HEALTH™ – BIOLOGICAL STRESS ASSESSMENT FOR HIGH PERFORMERS

Stress Check™

An advanced performance audit of your stress biology in real time

The Stress Check™ is the first assessment of chronic stress on your body. The test measures the hormones that govern your energy, mood, sleep, resilience and performance, at the root level where the damage actually happens.

Why Stress Check™?

Conventional medicine looks for what has already gone wrong. But they:
‍
● Don’t measure how your cortisol shifts across the day.
● Don’t track whether your adrenal reserve is being silently spent.
● Don’t show the hormonal pattern suppressing your deep sleep, making you disproportionately reactive under pressure.

The Stress Check™ shows you what state your stress biology is in now — and what needs to be corrected to optimise your performance.

50%

Of high performers report lifestyle fatigue linked to hormonal imbalance

Fatigue, poor sleep, weight gain, mood changes, low libido and brain fog.

20–30%

Reduction in cognitive output

When cortisol is dysregulated — focus, memory, judgment and mental performance suffer.

10+

Biological systems are governed by hormones

From energy and mood to recovery and longevity, hormones influence virtually every aspect of performance.

Key hormones are measured

The biomarkers most closely linked to energy, sleep, resilience, recovery, and performance.

Who is the Stress Check™ for?

Executives, C-suite professionals and high performers who carry significant stress loads, have limited time, and never had the advanced metrics to understand what pressure is doing to their biological pacing — and how to act on it.

This is for you if:

You wake tired regardless of how many hours you slept

Your energy crashes in the early afternoon and never fully returns

You are short-tempered in ways that surprise even you

Your motivation and drive have quietly diminished over the past 12–24 months

You lie awake at night unable to switch your mind off

You are getting through the day — but you know you are not performing at your ceiling

You rely on caffeine to initiate and sustain cognitive function

Your recovery from travel, illness or intense periods takes longer than it used to

None of these are verdicts.
They are hormonal signals. Measurable & optimisable.

HOW IT WORKS

Simple process. 
Advanced biomarker analysis.

Step 1

Order

We handle the order for you. Your test kit is dispatched to your preferred address. No clinic visit required.

Step 2

Collect at home

A simple saliva sample — taken at four precise time points across one day. Morning, noon, evening and night. Each time point captures a different phase of your cortisol curve.

Step 3

Laboratory analysis

Your sample is processed at one of the world’s leading laboratories using clinical-grade technology.

Step 4

1:1 Zoom consultation

Our practitioner walks you through your results personally. You leave the call knowing exactly what your biology is doing, why you feel the way you do, and precisely what to do next.

Step 5

Your action roadmap

A personalised, data-driven roadmap delivered after your consultation. Not a PDF of reference ranges. A clear, prioritised plan built around your results and your life.

WHY STRESS CHECK™ IS DIFFERENT

Beyond standard tracking. Your stress biology assessed in 1 day.

Standard blood tests measure only general cortisol levels. They do not track how your stress levels shift across the day, whether your adrenal reserve is being depleted, or which hormonal pattern is suppressing your sleep and affecting your performance.

Targeted biomarkers

Every marker is chosen for one purpose — understanding the biology of your stress response

Cortisol time points

Morning, noon, evening and night — the full diurnal curve, not a single snapshot.

Day of mapping

Simple saliva sample taken at home. No clinic visit. No blood draw. Prepaid return
label included.

Think of the Stress Check™ as a balance sheet for your biology.

It shows you exactly where you stand — your assets, your liabilities, what is working, what is quietly draining the business, and where the most urgent action needs to go.

The Stress Check™ does the same for your body.

It shows you where your biological reserves actually stand right now. Where your hormones are performing. Where chronic pressure is creating a deficit you cannot see yet but will absolutely feel later. What is costing you energy, sleep, drive and clarity — and where the highest-return corrections lie.

Most high performers run their companies with rigorous financial oversight and zero visibility on the most important asset they own – their health.

With Stress Check™ - you know you get your stress biology balance sheet. And it starts with knowing your key biological metrics.

Data changes everything

What changes when you know your stress biology?

Energy

Knowing why your energy crashes allows you to start correcting the cortisol pattern causing it. Your energy becomes predictable — because it is no longer at the mercy of a hormonal curve you did not know existed.

Sleep

You find out why sleep is not energising anymore. Elevated evening cortisol — invisible on a standard blood test, visible on this one — is one of the most common and most missed causes of non-restorative sleep in high performers.

Mood & drive

Irritability, flatness and reduced motivation are not personality traits. They are measurable hormonal states. When you know which markers are out of range, you stop managing the mood and start correcting the cause.

Resilience

Your adrenal reserve is the biological credit line that sustains performance under pressure. When you know where yours stands, you stop spending it blindly and become strategic about recovery.

Longevity

Chronically elevated cortisol drives insulin resistance, immune suppression, muscle and bone loss, accelerated biological aging. Finding it early is not optional for someone who intends to perform for decades.

Performance

Every cognitive advantage you have — your intelligence, your judgment, your speed of thought — runs on your hormonal foundation. Optimise that foundation and the performance ceiling lifts.
