If you have too little Cortisol, you may suffer from fatigue, chronic fatigue, exhaustion and a disease of the endocrine system called Addison's disease. If your adrenal glands are producing too much Cortisol, you may develop conditions such as weight gain, especially around the abdomen, depressed immune function with all of the consequences, accelerated aging and stomach ulcers.
To correct high Cortisol levels:
* Rest.
* Sleep.
* Follow a low glycemic diet.
* Exercise.
* Stress reduction.
* Nutritional supplements to support adrenal function and help resensitize the hypothalamus to cortisol. See Cortisol
