“Cortisol, also known as the stress hormone, is produced by the adrenal glands located above both kidneys. When stress levels remain high, they produce cortisol for long periods of time leading to unhealthy and dangerous changes to occur within our body.
Today stress has become a wild animal and is becoming an inescapable part of modern life. Everyone experiences stress whether it is related to everyday hassles as being stuck in traffic, or more acute forms of stress such as pain or traumatic experiences. As positive influences, stress can help to compel us to action; it can result in a new awareness and an exciting new perspective. As a negative influence, it can result in feeling of distrust, ejection, anger and depression, which in turn can lead to health problems such as headache, upset stomach, rashes, insomnia, ulcers, heart problem and stroke and underutilization of glucose, which takes the form of belly fat.
