Stress Unveiled: Decoding the Relationship Between Cortisol, Hormone Dysfunction, and Unwanted Symptoms

Most of my patients come to me with mysterious symptoms that their doctors just can't seem to figure out. Despite their normal lab results, many of them struggle with chronic fatigue, aches and pains, digestive discomfort issues, weight gain, and sleep problems on a daily basis.

They start to question what's wrong with them, as their doctors can't do much other than prescribe medications. They try to change their diet, exercise more, and take supplements, but nothing seems to help.

The one commonality I've found with all my patients is elevated STRESS levels. So in this episode of the Mind Your Health podcast, I want to dive into the topic of stress and cortisol (the body's main stress hormone), and its impact on all other hormones in the body, which simply put, are chemical messengers in the body that signal our organs to function properly.

Without proper hormone regulation and function, our bodies can't do what they're supposed to do, which leads to undesirable symptoms that interfere with our day to day life.

In this episode, you'll discover:
📌The impact of stress on your physical health and body, and a hidden type of stress that we tend to dismiss or ignore
📌How your HPA axis (controlled by your nervous system) works when you experience stress to impact your digestion, immune system, mood and emotions, and metabolism
📌Signs and symptoms of a dysregulated, stressed-out nervous system
📌An effective tool you can use to start to regulate your nervous system to balance your hormones so that you can get rid of your unwanted symptoms
