How High Cortisol Makes You Gain Weight - Cortisol And Weight Gain

If you’re eating well and exercising but still struggling with stubborn weight—especially belly fat—stress hormones may be working against you. Cortisol, the body’s primary stress hormone, plays a powerful role in metabolism, blood sugar regulation, and fat storage. When levels stay elevated, weight gain often follows.

In this video, Dr. Mark and Dr. Angela Stengler explain how chronic stress disrupts hormonal balance and signals the body to store fat. They share natural, practical strategies to help lower cortisol, including targeted nutrients like magnesium and ashwagandha, along with lifestyle habits such as improved sleep, balanced meals, and stress management.

If you want a healthier approach to weight management that addresses the root cause—not just calories—this video offers clear guidance to help calm cortisol and support sustainable fat loss naturally.
