• Cut gluten out of your diet.
• Surround yourself with positive, happy people. Get rid of the negative deadbeats who bring you down.
• Supplement with transdermal magnesium. This will help you relax and sleep better which can lead to reduced cortisol levels. It also helps improve testosterone levels.
• Meditate daily for 30 minutes per day. This is very important yet most of you will ignore this advice. A great program that can lower your cortisol levels and change your life are the Holosync Meditation CD’ s http:// jasonferruggia. com / meditationcd. I listen to them for a half hour every day and have noticed a dramatic reduction in stress levels and improved quality of life.
Adrenal Fatigue
High cortisol levels and adrenal fatigue go hand in hand. If you have one your probably have the other. Most people are over worked, over stressed, over caffeinated and possibly even over trained( although that’ s the least likely of the three). The combination of these things is what leads to adrenal fatigue. The adrenal glands control most of what goes on inside your body. When they are fried from too much stress nothing will function properly and you will basically feel like a walking zombie all the time. Getting lean with poorly functioning adrenal glands will also be next to impossible.
