Cortisol is a corticosteroid hormone that is released by your adrenal gland during stressful situations. When the stress does not last very long, the levels of cortisol in your brain dissipate.
What is Cortisol? Cortisol is an important hormone produced by the adrenal glands, small endocrine glands that sit on top of our kidneys. Cortisol is secreted by the body in response to stress, and is one of the hormones our bodies secrete in what is known as the fight or flight response.. Cortisol, in turn, plays an important role in everything from how our bodies use glucose (sugar), to our blood pressure, to the function of our immune systems.
