In today’s fast-paced world, stress is often viewed as a mental burden, but its effects are deeply physical. At the center of this physiological response is cortisol, the body’s primary stress hormone. While cortisol is essential for waking us up and managing our "fight or flight" instincts, chronically high levels can lead to weight gain, sleep disruption, and decreased immunity. The good news? You have significant control over your internal chemistry. By aligning your nutrition and daily habits, you can effectively "dial down" your cortisol production and build a more resilient nervous system.
