5 Foods That Naturally Decrease Cortisol, the Stress Hormone
Learn more about how to decrease stress and anxiety and improve mental health in one of my in-depth mental health courses:
Managing stress involves a lot of things, a healthy work life balance, good boundaries, sleep, exercise, but changing what you eat can also have a big impact on your stress levels, and that’s because what you eat impacts cortisol levels.
Cortisol is known as the stress hormone, it is part of the activating energizing response in your body, and it triggers the fight or flight response. But it plays a lot of other important roles in your body too. Cortisol helps regulate everything from sleep cycles and inflammation, to blood pressure and blood sugar levels.
Cortisol is released by the adrenal gland in response to a physical threat (like an injury) or a mental threat (like a deadline). Cortisol isn’t inherently bad, it’s helpful in the short term, but being exposed to it for too long
