Cortisol is the hormone that appears when we slip into stress, when we feel angry or fearful, or when we respond to an email out of sheer frustration. While cortisol holds an important roles in your mind, but is meant to be very short term. It’s useful for treating allergies short term or for spiking your energy to survive a dangerous moment, lower sensitivity to pain, or getting you through a short term project. If you stress too much or grieve too long, however, you can easily maintain cortisol in harmful levels. There is a supplement Cortislim that can help control cortisol.
