so anxious
不管我们怎么努力，就是瘦不下来。除了人重重之外，各种说不出的不舒服。原来罪魁祸首是皮质醇，搅乱了身体原有的工作秩序。
No matter how hard we try, we just can't lose weight. In addition to this, there were all kinds of unspeakable discomforts. It turns out that the culprit is cortisol, which disrupts the body's original working functions.
到底什么是皮质醇呢，它有哪些害处，有什么食物可以降低缓解它吗？
What exactly is cortisol, what are its harmful effects, and are there any foods that can relieve or lower it?
01
Cortisol The “Stress Hormone”
皮质醇“压力荷尔蒙”
The hormone behind most stress-related conditions is cortisol. Cortisol is released by the adrenal glands during stress, which is why it has been dubbed the “stress hormone.”
大多数与压力有关的疾病都是和皮质醇分不开的。 当我们感到压力时，皮质醇就会由肾上腺释放。这就是它被称为“压力荷尔蒙”的原因。
The body needs cortisol to power through demanding situations, whether dealing with hectic schedules, difficult bosses, or a traumatic life event. Unfortunately, many of us over-produce this hormone due to unrelenting stress in our professional and personal lives.
身体需要皮质醇来提供能量来应对困难的情况，无论是处理繁忙的事务、难以相处的老板还是精神创伤。 不幸的是，由于工作和个人生活中持续不断的压力，大多数人产生了过量的皮质醇。

Symptoms & Conditions Associated With Dysregulated Cortisol
与皮质醇失调相关的症状和病症
Inability to maintain steady energy levels throughout the day – Reliance on carbs/caffeine. 无法全天保持稳定的能量水平—依赖碳水化合物/咖啡因。
Fatigue and grogginess (lack of energy in the morning, even after a whole night's sleep).疲劳和昏昏沉沉（即使经过一整夜的睡眠，早上也没有精力）。
Tired but wired feeling, poor sleep (difficulty winding down or staying asleep). 疲倦但紧张的感觉，睡眠质量差（难以放松或保持睡眠状态）。
Unstable blood sugar levels – cortisol and insulin work together, and insulin increases when cortisol increases. High insulin causes the ovaries to produce more testosterone. We do not want this! PCOS is the result for many women. 血糖水平不稳定,皮质醇和胰岛素共同作用，当皮质醇升高时，胰岛素也会升高。 高胰岛素会导致卵巢产生更多睾酮。 我们不想要这个！ PCOS 是许多女性由于胰岛素紊乱导致的结果。
Brain fog and forgetfulness – scattered thoughts, inability to focus on a task for long. 脑雾和健忘，思想分散、无法长时间专注于一项任务。
Period & fertility problems – your adrenals affect your ovarian function and impact your fertility. 经期和生育问题，你的肾上腺肯定会影响你的卵巢功能，并影响你的生育能力。
Weight gain in the mid-section – the dreaded muffin top that keeps getting bigger. This is because belly fat has 4 TIMES more cortisol receptors than any other body fat. 腰围不断变大。 这是因为腹部脂肪的皮质醇受体比任何其他身体脂肪多4倍。
Low stamina for stress, easily irritated, high anxiety, panic attacks. 承受压力的能力低下，容易烦躁、高度焦虑、惊恐发作。
Poor immunity; increased incidence of colds and flu; chronic infections (bacterial, viral, yeast). 免疫力差；感冒和流感高发；慢性感染（细菌、病毒、酵母菌）。
