In this podcast, Dr. Berg talks about cortisol and the quality of sleep. Cortisol is at a circadian rhythm (*hormones wave changes that follow daily cycle). 

8am: highest cortisol level

12 midnight and 2am: lowest cortisol level (deep sleep)

Circadian Waves are influenced by a lot of things like hormones (Neurotransmitters – serotonin, melatonin made by the pineal gland in the brain).


Triggers of Cortisol:

• Physical / Emotional Stress 

• Caffeine 

• Sugar 

• EMF 

• Overtraining 


Nutrients to Help Reduce Cortisol

• Potassium 

• Vitamin B1

• Magnesium 

• Walking – O2
