would you decrease average cortisol levels throughout the day if you have a more consistent sleeping pattern? (11pm-7am everynight)
how severely are cortisol levels affected by alcohol and/or marijuana?
what are the best foods/supps for reducing morning cortisol levels?
can cortisol ever have any benefits in certain situations? (hydrocortizone= anti iflamm?)
Grains and cortisol can be effectively reduced through oatmeal early in the morning, meditation, good quality sleep, and even fish oil is effective. Furthermore stress reduction strategies are also of critical importance.
As for cortisol as a benifet. Cortisol is like most naturally produced hormones in the body, it is best in balance. Our current life style habits (the majority) lends people to over produce cortisol which leads to problems.
If you would like more information on the effects of low cortisol, simply look at the affects of Addisons disease
