I just found out that my cortisol levels are off the charts.. trying to do more tests to find out why.. but this explains so much of the stuff ive been going through.
so spot on. fasting in the morning on keto damaged me. now i shift all carbs in the morning to lower cortisol in the morning. that makes keto work again. and i take vitamin c multiple times a day
Great presentation. I'd like to add that recent brain imaging studies in people with borderline disorder have shown that lowered activity in the prefrontal cortex due to increased cortisol synthesis is linked to the emorional disregulation, poor judgement abilities, and abnormal social responce. Oxytocin is suggested to counteract these adverse responses.
I cannot tell you how appreciative I am that you went into so much detail, and in particular connecting-the-dots!!! Most of the time, we'll get a brief overview, and maybe that's good for a lot of people, but not me. What you did satisfies my curiosity, and need to understand before I can tie it into my mind. NOW it makes sense!
You are amazing! I am investigating cortisol and methods to destress after having my doctor diagnose anxiety (for the first time ever!!) then getting a blood test to confirm it - that I had high blood sugars and predicted high cortisol :( This is so helpful! A lot makes sense! Thank you!
VERY good video. I have this all symptoms. I am under very high stress due to some job related and family related problems. Today I started Ashwagandha supplement to decrease cortisol. Hope to get a good life sooner :)
@@vanessasouthern1792 Hi Vanessa. Thank you for the nice comment. Me too! Its very confusing and lifetime damaging. I'm so grateful to be able to video learn from amazing experts. I developed Hashimoto Thyroid. Have had it undiagnosed for over 20 yrs. (I hate Medical Doctors) Its common for people who've been abused to develop Autoimmune illnesses. Finally in May saw a Homeopathic Dr who found it. Not fun having weight, fatigue and always feeling stressed! I'm on the road back to health and wellness. Dr. Randall Tent has an amazing lecture on autoimmune, weight loss and other health enhancing topics. Sending you a hug from Florida.
@@ceilconstante7813 thank you that's so kind. Sending you one back from Newcastle in UK 🇬🇧 I'm pleased you're getting somewhere with your health. I will do some more research on your suggestions, thanks. I've been bullied and abused so badly since a child and in a narcissistic family system (that I'm now extricated from) into adulthood. I suffer from eczema, allergies, irritable bowel syndrome, complex PTSD. My mother abused me so badly my periods stopped at 27 and I went through early menopause. It's had a devastating effect. I'm now 45. It's an extremely lonely ife. But I keep praying every day to stay sane. I had a complete nervous breakdown after trying to take my life at 40. Ended up in a psychiatric unit and then she mocked me for it, along with her flying monkeys. I wonder what I did to deserve such evil. I hope one day it all makes sense. Take care. ❤ 😘
Thanks for this information. I've been looking for some better explanations on this subject. I played it back at 3/4 time because it was way too fast on normal😊
This is so helpful for my essay....way better explaination than some journals i have read. They should find ways to have videos like this peer reviewed. Are there peer-reviewed videos? hmmmm....
@MaaNonu123 The "what to do about it" depends on what's causing it. It could be inflammation, infection, stress (mental/emotional, physical or both), immune system involvement, foods, etc. It's not as easy as taking a supplement - it requires taking a look at the big picture and fixing what was causing it in the first place.
would be great if you gave us advice on how to lower it, keep in mind that most people who are watching your video are probably watching it because they have high cortisol and want your suggestions..., Not to say it wasn't useful information but most people want to know how to fix the problem rather than know what the problem is
This is a great summary of what stress can do to our lives (Cushing's syndrome might be mentioned in the context of the pituitary gland, but most people probably know about it anyway).
so basically just go outside and do something physical. your brain thinks your stress (i'm speaking for work, school stress) are physical. therefore, doing something physical should help ease those nerves out. your body thinks that the threat is gone.
also make sure it’s actually working...I can have high-cortisol phases where I can’t “get out of my head” even while doing exercise and “relaxing” outside in nice weather. I think “getting out of your head” is probably easier for most people, most of the time, than it is for me; just keep in mind that if you CAN’T actually “get out of your head” then no matter how much you move your body around it won’t help at all, and that’s not Your Fault. if it works, for God’s sake, KEEP GOING. if it’s not working it’s not working, don’t beat yourself up over it, just stay focused, reassess, try other stuff, keep swimming like a rat in the forced swim test on ketamine and eventually you’ll fix it
I've been treating my Bruxism over the last 4 days and I sleep SO much better now. i sleep better and I'm clearly a lot happier which has unbelievably caused me to lose 4 pounds in 4 days. I've been dieting and exercising for months and while I've lost a fair bit of weight I've been stagnant for weeks now. I even gained a little weight 2 weeks ago that was very discouraging. Stress and Sleep are obvious to me now to be the overlooked elements of health.
I had to be a Medrol for a while, and after I taper off, I find myself in all sorts of problems that you mentioned in the video. It's a very vicious cycle - reactive hypoglycemia, hypertension, insomnia, vitamin D deficiency, muscle/join pain, loss of bone density, ovarian cyst, ... My MD treated my symptoms one after another but never tested me for my cortisol level. I feel this video is incomplete. How can one's body break the vicious cycle and reduce the cortisol level?
@ Dr. Brian Walsh THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for your vids (although this vid is about HIGH cortisol, which is the exact OPPOSITE of MY problem), this vid, along w/your vid re adrenal fatigue FULLY EXPLAINS MY SYMPTOMS/PROBLEMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great explanation , but now my Cortisol increase even more after this Vid... LOL would be nice to get some advice from Dr how to prevet or what to do to Lower Cortisol
I find Ashwaganda to be an effective stress-reducing supplement. It has a gentle calming effect without leaving you in a "fog" like those nasty chemical anti-depressants. It's also relatively inexpensive. Also, when supplementing EFAs, focus on the Omega 3s. The average diet already has enough Omega 6s in it (dairy, grains and oils) The most bio-available form of Omega 3s is Krill Oil.
Thank you. Great explanation! What is the name of the lab test for measuring Cortisol level? Also, I heard from my doctor, measuring Cortisol level is not something you can rely on in diagnosing, because it is so variable from one moment to another. Is this correct?
amir9000 the Dr found my cortisol tests unreliable for severity as I couldn't keep a 'normal' sleep pattern and so so,drives in the day it dipped as I'd just slept etc
Actually cortisol doues stimulate glukogenesis which is storing glukos as glycogen but it does also stimulate glukoneogenesis which increase glucose in the blood.
do the adrenal glands "leak" cortisol if one is in a constant state of Hypervigilence?, "Waiting for the other shoe to drop?" I as well as most of my family are Hypervigilent, police, emt, etc. I seem to have fibromyalgia and a bit of RA and maybe Lupus SLE. (tests pending). I've always had this feeling like I don't get as much adrenaline as others in emergencies and feel like I am calmer. Can I be stressed out moderately all day to the point of a reduction in cortisol or over production to compensate for the Hypervigilence?
lookingup82 i think if they get stuck on fight/flight mode they easily send the signal to produce cortisol... then you get problems like those explained
My cortisol is low when it needs to be higher and high when it needs to be lower. Why do I keep hearing about high cortisol ????? I’m so sick now and it all started with my cortisol out of wack. Help !!!
Hi, tnx for very informative video. I have high free cortisol and low metabolite of cortisole......i made acth test, and my fisition sad i have low cortisole becose my metabolite are low. I have this adrenal fatigue for almost 4 years now, i try rhodiola...i didnt feel ok after this, i am taking b complex, celfood with c vitamin, spirulina with se, cu...eat more and less paleo, i dont eta gluten, milk, sugar, cofein, acohol. I do tai chi, yoga nidra........but i fell sicker and sicker. I make mr of brain, bag, enterography of gut becouse of ibs....all result was b.p. I admit i am lost, and dont know what should i try . I have havy period and still more havier time after period, when i feel totaly exhausted, sick, nausea, anxeous...than ovulation come and i have horible nausea, heart palpitation, blood rate up....Do you have any sugestion what will help me? I am 40 ....my sex hormons was normal, mybe testosteron little low. Thank you very much, best regards, petra
How do you suppose Cortisol converts fatty acids into Glucose? Fat can never be converted into glucose, when breaking down fat the body creates Keton bodies that is used for energy.
Good question. Not sure about the mechanism that cortisol uses to achieve it--but Fat absolutely CAN be converted into glucose and we do it every single day. Look up gluconeogenesis and that's where you'll find your answer.
Things that cause stress: inflammatory foods, Eating too much food, alcohol, coffee, etc.......Any physical activity done too long can put your body under stress, driving in traffic, insommia, colds, cuts, etc.. Obvious things that you are stressing you: high cholesterol, high blood sugar. high blood pressure,etc.. Foods to consider: fish or fish oil, vegies, peanuts or butter, lean meat, eggs, CAYENNE, TURMERIC, Magnesium, Vitamin c or citrus fruit, Stay away from fruit mostly!
Does cortisol call on gluconeogenesis to ramp up if there isnt a need for more BG? If glucose rise and insulin is secreted insluin trump the cortisols effect on the glucagon in the liver to make glucose doesnt it? Is there a direct link from stress--- cortisol --- and gluconoegenesis? I went keto and trained hard HIIT without carbing up. This raised my cortisol and adrenalin levels high for at least 48hours. But that was a nescessary stress to fill up to some degree my glycogen levels in tissue and to raise my bloodsugar from getting too low. Even after 24hours my training session I had an GKI of 1. 3,3-3,3 but I was feeling great though. Btw I'm out of ketosis now because the downsides and extra stress on my hormone levels during my HIIT-sessions. I found out that I need carbohydrates to feel OK during and after workouts. But only to a degree of whats nescessary.
I've been yo yo dieting for nearly 10 years. My body feels so out of balance. One day I feel very energetic and good and the next day I'm dead tired, cold, and not motivated to do anything. I used to compete in amateur boxing that's why I used to diet a lot to get my weight down but would eventually burn out, binge, and bloat back up to my original weight. Please help I don't know what to do anymore..
A lack of mitochondria means reduced ability to process that sugar. So the question is how can abundance of ATP hurt you? Then the next question would be how do you increase the number of mitochondria? Knowing these two things should help understand insulin resistance and insulin production issues. Everything else is a excuse do not exercise more and is your fault.
Mostly because of the « anti-immune » effects of cortisol which are very uselful at inhibiting the inflammatory mediators in chronic inflammation which are responsible for the pain felt.

I can feel my cortisol level rising after watching this, nicely explained btw
This is by far the BEST explanation of cortisol-induced damage I have seen so far. Thank you, Dr. Walsh.

what kind of test did you do?
how was the cortisol effecting you?
did you have burning in your upper Abs and when you were hungry?
Check cushings
Make am adrenal tumor another possibility to check out
