A 7-day checklist to lower cortisol is going viral: An endocrinologist weighs in
Functional health practitioner Ben Azadi shared a viral 7-day checklist to lower cortisol, emphasizing habits like avoiding food before bed and morning sunlight. Dr. Pranav Ghody, an endocrinologist, cautioned that these habits help regulate stress response rather than directly lower cortisol, with exercise and sleep having stronger evidence for cortisol management. Individuals should consult health practitioners before starting new routines.
