If you are aware stress and how it affects your body and life, then choosing a way to reduce Cortisol is naturally your next step. On our website you will find alternatives to having those uncontrollable outbursts or uncontrollable health problems. We provide information on the definition of stress and the stress hormone in addition to healthy ways to reduce Cortisol.
Stress is woven into the fabric of our lives. The stress response was hardwired so we could fight or flee in threatening situations. Today, traffic, falling stock prices, and any number of everyday situations trigger the stress response. Chronic stress, like a tear in the fabric of our homeostasis, can cause health risks.
Reduce Cortisol, Reduce Stress
Stress can affect virtually any part of the body and produce physical, mental and emotional symptoms including allergies, dizziness, headache, heart palpitations, environmental sensitivity, impaired coordination, impaired immunity and weight gain. Cortisol weight gain is often associated with emotional eating and the too-busy-to-exercise lifestyles of people under chronic stress. But researchers are finding that changes in the body triggered by stress, such as excessive Cortisol levels, can cause insulin resistance and weight gain.
Under stress, the body excretes corticotrophin-releasing hormone and adrenalin. This reaction stimulates the release of cortisol from the adrenal cortex. In turn, Cortisol, a glucocorticoid, stimulates glucose release into the bloodstream, which, during periods of chronic stress, creates an excessive release of insulin. Insulin, which is part of the endocrine system, is a fat-storage hormone that overrides the stress signal from adrenalin to burn fat. The excess release of insulin gives the body the message to store fat in the abdomen (in case you were wondering, that is why this is the hardest place to lose weight).
