I brought in my beloved “sister from another mister,” Dr. Lo. Dr. Lauren Noel is a naturopathic doctor practicing here in San Diego with an extremely I asked Dr. Lo about my previous issues with weight loss, and why so many people can’t seem to lose weight, even while they’re doing all the “right” things. She had one simple explanation: CORTISOL. We’ve all heard about this hormone in the past. Unbeknownst to me, our body still produces this chemical literally all day long. Cortisol helps soothe the body’s processes while under stress, and gives us a boost of energy when we really, really need it. TOO MUCH can lead to a spike in insulin, a decline in cognitive function, a suppressed immune system, and excess fat storage. Aha! So, Dr. Lo gave me Five Reasons Why Our Cortisol Is Too High: Too Much Stress - When we’re in danger or under stress, our hypothalamus tells our adrenal glands to release adrenalin and cortisol. When the danger has passed, everything should return to normal. However, when we feel “attacked” on a regular basis, multiple times per day, multiple days per week, cortisol levels begin to rise substantially. Chronic Cardio - The concept here is that exercise is in fact a form of stress (albeit physical, and very controlled, but stress nonetheless.) It will encourage cortisol production. The longer you perform your exercise, the longer cortisol will be produced and the higher the risk of cortisol’s side effects. Food Intolerances - Whether we have a diagnosed allergy with clear symptoms and external responses or not, many of us have food intolerances. Some foods that we eat every day may be irritating or enflaming our stomachs on a regular basis. Lack of Sleep - As Dr. Lo stated in the video, typically, cortisol levels are higher in the morning, when we first wake up, and lower in the evening. Our bodies probably developed this way to motivate ourselves to seek food and shelter as soon as it was possible (aka, when the sun came up.) Infections - These are far more common than we realize. Even right now, each of us are battling mini-infections in our mouths, eyes, ears, skin, teeth and other areas. Everytime we are under attack physically, in any way, our adrenal gland must send cortisol to the rescue. Thanks so much to Dr. Lo for swinging by and helping us out this week!
