Stress can and must be managed. Jolie Root, LPN, Licensed Nutritionist, Medical Journalist, Radio Host, Sought after Speaker, explained the relationship between carrying belly fat around your middle, Type 2 Diabetes and heart disease. Continuous stress causes elevated cortisol levels to collect in your body. Consequently, your nutrients are not properly absorbed, fat is stored around your middle, and you experience all kinds of side effects: headaches, digestive disorders, insomnia and more. Also, your insulin levels become challenged which leads to Type 2 Diabetes. Then you are headed for heart disease. Stop this disease cycle now!
