Enjoy your morning coffee, people ☕️
'Cortisol Belly' FFS 🤦♀️
Reality is your cortisol levels go when you get up in the morning and when we exercise. Shall we stop doing that, too? 😴💪
Scientific evidence shows that your morning coffee is not a driver or cortisol induced weight gain.
Extreme cases of cortisol-related fat are symptoms of pathological conditions such as Cushing's syndrome.
For most people, abdominal weight gain is a combination of elevated cortisol due to stress-induced lifestyle habits such as poor sleep, poor diet, no exercise, and hormonal shifts.
Menopausal women are targeted because we are often very vulnerable. Want more simple scientific evidence that cuts through the BS? Drop me DM 🧡
