5 Things That Can Impact Cortisol
Cortisol can be our friend and our enemy. Cortisol is a stress hormone secreted by the adrenals that has helpful effects short-term, but chronic elevated output can have damaging long-term effects.
In the short term, cortisol is our "fight or flight" response to stressful situations such as trauma, infection, surgery or emotional stress. In the long term, cortisol creates chronic stress that eventually leads to exhaustion and harmful health effects such as poor wound healing, stomach ulcers, diabetes, weakness, depression, yeast overgrowth, bone loss and abdominal weight gain.
In this podcast we list 5 things that can impact your cortisol levels and what you can do to keep your cortisol in balance.
