Thank you for the video. Question: Why would cortisol be at the highest level in the morning if it is stress hormon? People feel less stressed after a good sleep?
Good question! This is part of the hormone's circadian rhythm, a roughly 24-hour cycle. Typically, the levels are higher in the morning to help you wake up. Then, the levels gradually taper off throughout the day and are at the lowest in the evening to help you fall asleep.
Hello ... When I have a problem, my body trembles, my heart beats faster, and I feel difficult to speak. I also sweat a lot, and I suffer from high levels of cortisol.. I tried Ashwgandha for 6 months, and my condition did not improve. Is there an alternative to Ashuganda?
I was on benzodiazepines as prescribed for 12 years ago and the doctor abruptly stopped them I have had high cortisol every morning since then breaking to extreme panic anxiety and depression I tried to take antidepressants to help but they did not respond well with my body being oversensitised do you have any natural remedies that you recommend to people as alternatives to antidepressants maybe Adaptogines or amino acids
Wow. I am so sorry to hear this. I would do a lot of research. Mainly try to get into exercising and eating healthy. Those are the most important pillars
Benzos like codeine are shown to reduce cortisol so it stands to reason your body learned to produce extra cortisol to adapt and now without the benzos your cortisol could be extremely elevated not to mention you're not use to that feeling so I pray you find some relief, the doc should have tapperd you down and given you something to adjust. That's cold blooded as far as I can see.
Same here. I was on Benzos for a month and then taken off overnight. I ended up with a panic disorder which took 8 months to resolve even after hospitalisation. I still get anxiety from it.
I recommend you using ashwaghanda. I've used it for a long time I know I believe it's 100% effective when it comes to lowering cortisol but you have to be committed to using it daily I've also used rhodiola for a long time but I think ashwaghanda is more powerful and rhodiola is more like a thing that makes you happy and stimulate you than lowers cortisol so I highly recommend you consuming ashwaghanda but be careful about the dose cuz when I take 600mg everyday I get headaches so it's not about taking high doses it's about how long are you going to take it I think 2 weeks is 100% will be enough to feel the effects of ashwaghanda and then you continue for 1 month or 2 maybe more but I've heard that these are not good long term cuz your body adapt to it so you need to cycle it for example 3 months on and then 4 weeks off something like that
PLEASE HELP, what about just waking up from a nap, wanting to go ride my bike, feeling positive, but my body feels so stressed i start feeling like i have the flu, almost get nauseated too, not digestive issues but just body fatigue, all over unwell, if i have one or two drinks, i feel 90 percent better, it don't want to have to drink that often, what's happening.......my CT of the adrenals showed normal, but my cortisol is high and testosterone low. I'm a 47 year old male. I'm desperate. This started rapidly 2 years ago, still no answers.
It does the same thing to me. I don’t think I’m stressed in my mind but my cortisol has a mind of its own. My naturopath put me on a supplement called truadapt to take at bedtime, you can get it online and it works really well.
I'm 37yr old make happen 2 years ago also. Just got my cortisol checked and they are sky high. Dht also double what it should be. 7 er visits 20gs in doc bills and it was thus the entire time.

Is it true that to test our cortisol levels we need to be off estrogen for 6 weeks before? If we are on HRT, that means we have to stop for 6wks to test cortisol?
