Stress can make you gain 15 pounds or more in just 3 months.

The vast majority of American adults are feeling stressed on a daily basis right now. Stress often causes us to seek comfort in food. Worse, it causes metabolic changes that signal your body to store fat instead of burning it.

Where does this fat go? Right to your hips and belly. Foods high in sugar and unhealthy fats pack on to your midsection. But that doesn’t mean you can’t stop this “stress-fat” cycles.

Just reducing your blood cortisol by 24% can make a huge difference in how you feel. Less irritability, anxiety, and sleeplessness.
