Understanding the At-Home Metabolism Test

Metabolism is the biochemical process by which your body converts what you eat and drink into energy. Monitoring your cortisol, testosterone/progesterone, and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels is crucial for maintaining a healthy metabolism. Abnormal cortisol levels may lead to conditions such as weight gain and fatigue.

Using an at-home metabolism test kit from Basic Benefits regularly can give you valuable insights into the underlying metabolic and dietary factors affecting your lifestyle, and show how these factors impact your health.

Included: 1 metabolism testing kit and a pre-addressed return envelope (postage paid).
