Cortisol and Stress
Chronic stress leads to elevated cortisol levels, initially providing energy and anti-inflammatory benefits, but eventually causing fatigue and poor sleep quality. As restorative sleep declines, the body struggles to maintain healthy hormone levels, resulting in increased irritability, decreased libido, and challenges in muscle recovery. This imbalance can leave you feeling overwhelmed and wired, making it difficult to unwind at night.In this clip
