How can I lower cortisol?
We all know it breaks down our hard earned muscle, so we wanna keep it pretty low.
Now I'm not a biochemist, but what I understand is that cortisol raises 11-beta hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase levels in fat cells, making them more sensitive to insulin.
(Someone else should explain this better. Anyone up for a challenge?)
What can lower cortisol? I'm more interested in naturally lowering cortisol.
I've heard these cortisol:
water
Avoiding stress
sleeping well
Insulin
yoga
