Ever wonder how stress truly impacts your mind and body? On this episode of Sarah Has Questions, we dive into cortisol—the so-called stress hormone—with WakeMed family nurse practitioner Crystal Evans. We learn how cortisol regulates your metabolism, sleep, blood pressure, and even that stubborn belly fat. Chronic stress and lack of sleep can throw your hormones way off, but Crystal has some real, actionable ways to manage it.
