Cortisol Control

Cortisol-control supplements are designed to help regulate cortisol – a stress hormone. The primary function of this type of supplement is to reduce stress and inflammation, which can influence the body’s ability to lose weight and prevent weight gain. Cortisol-control products are also marketed as ways to balance blood pressure and increase heart health, build muscle, maintain bone density, improve sleep quality and prevent excess water weight. Different products may contain a wide range of ingredients. However, common ingredients include ashwagandha, rhodiola rosea, vitamin C, magnolia officinalis and L-theanine – many of which are also found in weight-loss and fat-loss supplements.
