Cortisol, often called the stress hormone, is released by your adrenal glands in response to stress and low blood sugar.
During stress, cortisol helps your body manage and respond by increasing energy and alertness, but too much can be harmful.
Chronic high cortisol levels can lead to problems like high blood pressure, weight gain, and weakened immunity.
Managing stress effectively can help balance cortisol levels, improving overall well-being and reducing negative health effects.
Practices like yoga, meditation, regular exercise, and proper sleep can naturally reduce cortisol levels and stress.
