Lowering the Cortisol Cascade

Cortisol is your stress hormone. When your body is inflamed, your brain perceives this as a physical threat and pumps out cortisol to help you "fight" the invisible enemy.

• The Result: High cortisol keeps you in hyper-vigilance, making it hard to lose weight, sleep deeply, or feel calm.
• The Shift: Removing inflammatory triggers for 21 days signals to your nervous system that the threat is gone, allowing cortisol to drop naturally.
