Over 100 stress-free recipes to help you manage your cortisol levels and balance your hormones Reduce stress, manage your hormones and become happier and healthier with  The Cortisol Fix Recipe Book Cortisol is our "stress hormone" produced in the adrenal glands as a response to a perceived danger or threat. It helps our bodies reduce inflammation, regulate our sleep cycles, control our blood sugar and blood pressure levels and manage how we process carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.
