All About Insulin and Cortisol

Mike Millner
About this episode

In this episode, Mike discusses two hormones that are often made out to be the bad guys... insulin and cortisol. A lot of fear mongering exists around these two hormones because it's easy to make claims without explaining the full context of what these hormones do in our bodies. Once you understand the roles they play, you'll realize why you shouldn't be afraid of either hormone. More importantly, you'll learn what DOES cause issues with these two hormones and how to avoid those problems.
