The Rest Prescription #StubbornFatFix #Thyroid

Every time you trigger your stress response, your adrenal glands pump out the stress hormone cortisol. If cortisol levels remain high - as they do when you don't get enough sleep, keep your self awake during the day by consuming lots of caffeine, or generally feel edgy and jittery - your entire metabolism becomes imbalanced, suppressing thyroid function, raising blood sugar and blood pressure, weakening muscles and bones, and triggering the body to store more abdominal fat.
