Your iPhone could soon measure your stress levels, thanks to this hormone-testing stick

The article from TechRadar discusses a potential new feature for iPhones that could measure stress levels through a hormone-testing stick. This innovation involves a device that can detect levels of cortisol, a hormone associated with stress, in the user's sweat. Developed by researchers at the University of Cincinnati, this technology could integrate with the Apple Health app to provide real-time stress monitoring. The stick would be placed on the skin, possibly on the wrist or another convenient location, and would communicate data to the iPhone, allowing users to track their stress patterns over time. This could lead to better stress management by offering insights into when and why stress levels spike, potentially integrating with other health metrics like sleep and activity to give a comprehensive health overview. However, the article notes that this technology is still in development and would require further refinement and approval before becoming a commercial product.
