Description

Cortisol is a steroid hormone that regulates the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Cortisol is also involved in immune function and stress response. Cortisol levels are typically highest in the morning and lowest at night. Cortisol can be used to diagnose adrenal gland disorders, such as Addison's disease or Cushing's syndrome. The diagnosis of these diseases is based on the measurement of cortisol levels in blood, saliva, or urine. Cortisol can also be measured to assess the severity of an illness or the body's response to a particular treatment.
