@puerco911 your mom has cortisol

[puerco911]

wow....careful when taking advice from this....Cortisol is the "anti-stress" hormone the one your body releases in response to stressors!!!! she is way off track....oh yea and she fails to mention that Cortisol is the ONLY hormone you can not live without!!! if you are exposed to stress (injury, infection,etc) and you have no cortisol, you DIE...period.....

what makes you fat are the stresses you are putting on yourself and your eating habits...NOT cortisol!!!

@chellefit I went through, hypocortisolism last year. Going through a break up, family going broke, working 3 jobs & getting at most 4hrs sleep a night. Oddly enough, I body started having hormonal imbalance. & eventually cortisol deficiency & lost abt 12% body weight. Once I was diagnosed, I started going to the gym, eating & sleeping better. I supplement myself with multi-vitamins & BCAA. Since, I have put my weight & mass back on & on the way to have a six pack. Hormone balance test saved me.

I think she's explaining it very well. At first you are stunned by her beauty but after few words, you can appreciate a simplified but correct explanation of this topic. Good job!
