1085. Breaking the Cycle: Understanding Cortisol & Insulin Resistance

A study Dr. Martin looked at is saying how an ongoing stressful situation can cause a healthy person to develop insulin resistance in as little as 4 days!  We all need cortisol. It’s part of our fight or flight mechanism and it’s our friend until it becomes our enemy. The problem is when cortisol doesn’t shut off. This leads to insulin resistance, and left unchecked, it can become a perfect storm for a cancer diagnosis.  Join Dr. Martin as he teaches on cortisol and insulin resistance and how to break the cycle.
