Stress Resilience

The cortisol/DHEA-S ratio is presented in Healsens as a wellness trend marker for stress and recovery patterns over time.

🔷 How to read this marker

• The ratio can be viewed together with sleep quality, activity level, and perceived daily load.
• Values that move over time may reflect shifts in routine, recovery rhythm, and overall balance.
• A single measurement is most useful when interpreted as part of a longer trend.

🔷 Wellness-oriented interpretation

• Lower, mid, and higher ranges are used here as orientation zones for self-observation.
• Stable patterns may indicate a steady routine; larger swings may suggest periods worth tracking more closely.
• Practical context such as workload changes, travel, or sleep disruption can help explain movement in the ratio.

🔷 Lifestyle reflection ideas

• Consistent sleep schedule and recovery windows
• Regular moderate movement adjusted to your routine
• Balanced meals and hydration throughout the day
• Stress-management practices (for example, breathing, mindfulness, or gentle evening wind-down)

🔷 Tracking frequency

Use a repeat cadence that fits your personal wellness tracking plan and compare results over time rather than relying on one value.
