Summary

Cortisol isn't just one of your main fight or flight hormones, it's also a major player when it comes to weight gain...

The reason for this is that cortisol begins to systematically raise blood sugar under stress...

Typically this would be a good thing if you needed it in an emergency, but the problem is most of our modern-day stress is more chronic than acute in nature...

Tune into today's #CabralConcept 1433 to find out exactly how cortisol directly affects belly fat weight gain - Enjoy the show!
