From difficulty concentrating and fatigue to poor job performance, tension headaches or even burnout.

Stress is the body’s response to a change that requires a physical, mental, or emotional adjustment. It is also the body’s method of reacting to or preparing for a new challenge. Stress can originate from any situation or thought that makes you feel concerned, nervous, frustrated, or angry. Its effects on the body are not only psychological but physiological as well.

What is Cortisol? Cortisol is a steroid hormone produced in the adrenal glands. Cortisol plays an important role in how the body uses food substances such as carbohydrates, fat, or protein, in order to meet additional physiological demands. Cortisol is normally released in response to events such as waking up in the morning, during physical activity and stressful events. When chronically elevated, cortisol has a negative impact on many systems, including weight control and immune function. With a high stress, fast paced lifestyle, the body ends up producing cortisol almost continuously. Whilst cortisol is essential to the body, too much cortisol can have a significantly detrimental effect on our health.
