Cortisol is a Hormone Produced by Stress Which has Some Unwanted
Effects
Feeling stressed and
under pressure? Chances are, as a natural response, your body is
producing cortisol in the adrenal gland and it is being released
in excess amounts. Unfortunately, too much of this hormone is
shown to increase blood sugar levels, increase blood pressure,
and hurt your immune system. Additionally, it is shown to cause
weight gain and be responsible for added inches to our tummies,
hips, and thighs. As
a result, cortisol blockers have taken the weight loss industry
by storm and are designed to block and lower the output of this
hormone. |
