These are a few symptoms that you may experience with high cortisol levels.

1. Loss of muscle mass

5. Aging of skin
6. Chronic yeast infections
7. Decrease in testosterone production
8. Lower growth hormone production
9. Memory loss

These effects are pretty awful and it would be awful to experience any of these. All of these symptoms might remind of of an elderly person with health problems.

High cortisol levels are nothing to be taken lightly. Do your best to control this hormone.

As I mentioned on the previous page, you can do your part in lowering the production of this hormone.

Although cortisol seems to be an evil hormone, its production is still essential in the human body. Having a moderate amount of it is important.

Cortisol assists in regulating the inflammatory responses in our body and also controls blood sugar levels. Its just that too much cortisol can be damaging.
