Reducing average cortisol to a safe level, say under 15 µg/dl, is very important. Unfortunately, there is no convenient way to measure average cortisol, so fasting levels are used. Cortisol is a very fast-acting hormone, and any minor stress prior to a blood draw, such as an argument over billing, could run it up. So unless you are in a normal relaxed state, the measurement should be taken with a grain of salt, or ideally, taken again. Ten minutes a day of some sort of meditation or other spiritual discipline appears to work wonders, and the wonders worked are primarily stress and cortisol reduction and their consequences."
