Parents, are you a source of #cortisol & #catecholamines for your kids or #dopamine, #oxytocin, and #serotonin? If it’s the former, then don’t call their teenage years “rebellion” when they struggle with drug/alcohol abuse, addictions to food/porn/tech, etc. & are never home.
The data on the neurobiology & neurochemistry of parenting is clear. I’ve been in the religious world my entire life & I’ve never heard leaders teach about effects of parenting on a child’s brain. I have heard legalistic emphasis, however, on “obedience.” a.co/d/fW46H5f

There is no magic pill, supplement, or medicine you can take to reduce the effects of #cortisol on your heart.
The only solution is to implement stress reduction techniques:
increasing your exercise
avoiding cheap food
finding outlets for stress

#AnnalenaBaerbock in der ARD: „Jeder Mensch macht Fehler im Leben“

Seit der #Ampelkoalition gibt es eine faktische Senkung des Existenzminimums dank der "#3Euro" - Erhöhung trotz hoher Inflation

Sehr geehrte Frau Baerbock,
Ihr Buch war nie ein Problem, denn egal was "aufgehuebscht" wurde, es hat gesellschaftlich niemanden geschadet!
Ganz anders verhält es sich mit dem gar nicht sozialen #Buergergeld
Die #SPD zieht im Windschatten der #FDP e. zweite #Agenda2010 durch

Es hilft manchmal immer wieder ein paar Schritte zurück zu treten, um eine erweiterte Perspektive wahrnehmen zu können und die zeigt das so genannte #Buergergeld als einen faulen Marketinggag.
Das wird diesmal jedoch Euch; @Die_Gruenen mehr schaden, wenn Ihr dies mittraegt!

🔺Ya todos conocemos más o menos lo que es el ayuno intermitente, un tipo de régimen alimentario bastante antiguo, inspirado en cómo fue la alimentación del hombre durante sus inicios sobre la Tierra.

Our #residents got to learn about #syncope & #adrenalinsufficiency today from Rising Chief @LizzyHastie, Chief @photon_ick, & Endo-enthusiast @tsantoscavaiola!!
Check out some highlights below we wanted to make sure we shared with our #MedEd peeps on #MedTwitter!!

Don’t forget about adrenal insufficiency!! For patients with things like #syncope or #hypotension, it’s easy to forget about cortisol as a cause! While things like dehydration, infection, & other things may be more common overall… AI is #treatable, so make sure you catch it!!
Primary AI = #adrenal glands themselves are the problem. This means #cortisol AND #aldosterone will be low, while #ACTH AND #Renin will be very elevated in attempt to remedy this!
Stop abusing steroids to build muscles.
Stop abusing steroids to enhance performance.
When your body is exposed to excess #steroids for a long time it can lead to Cushing's syndrome, a horrible condition.

Normally, Cushing's syndrome occurs when your body is exposed to high levels of the hormone #cortisol for a long time.
But most steroid medications have the same effect on your body as cortisol.
So, when you take excess steroids over time, it can lead to Cushing's syndrome.

So, when you take excess steroids over time, it can lead to Cushing's syndrome.
Cushing's syndrome can also occur when your body makes too much cortisol on its own (like in certain tumors of your pituitary gland or adrenal problems).
But taking or injecting steroid medications (exogenous steroids) is the single most common cause of this horrible condition.
