Wat is Cortisol?

Cortisol is one of the glucocorticoids. It is a type of steroid hormone. It is made in the cortex of the adrenal glands, and then the blood carries it all over the body.

This includes controlling:

• The amount of sugar in the blood, which controls the metabolism,

• Control of blood pressure,
• Helping a fetus develop.

CBD and Cortisol

CBD is a type of cannabinoid that is known to work with the endocannabinoïde systeem in your body. Your body’s homeostase is controlled by the ECS. But it might also have an effect on your endocrine system.

CBD interacts with cannabinoid receptors in your body. These receptors are often found in glands that make cortisol, like the adrenal glands. Because of this, CBD may be able to change how much these glands make.
