| Most Common Name: | Cortisol | | Also
Known As (other names): | Hydrocortisone |
Cortisol is a steroid hormone produced in the outer layers of the adrenal
gland. Low levels of Hydrocortisone or Cortisol has been associated with
mood swings, depression, anxiety and a host of physical symptoms. Any
substantial change in the levels of cortisol or Hydrocortisone can also cause
psychological stress and disorders. Cortisol levels, in most people, vary daily
being at its highest concentration in the morning and reducing towards the
evening. Too much Cortisol is also harmful. It causes obesity, muscle
deterioration, hair loss and several other problems. This steroid should only be
taken under medical supervision. There is some correlation that supports
the concept that high levels of Hydrocortisone is associated with overweight
problems. This is normally blamed on higher levels of Cortisol caused by stress
as this steroid is part of the "flee or fight" process but there are
also arguments that stress related weight problems are caused by a wide variety
of other psychological and physiological factors and reactions.
