Stress & Metabolism: How Cortisol Affects Weight and Blood Sugar
Stress affects metabolism by elevating cortisol, which increases blood sugar, promotes visceral fat storage, and reduces insulin sensitivity. Chronic stress may contribute to weight gain, insulin resistance, sleep disruption, and thyroid changes. Managing sleep, resistance training, and stress regulation can restore metabolic balance.
