#cortisol

When your #stress is high, your body produces extra #cortisol, which feels awful (and causes problems).

My best #StressManagement / coritsol management tip is to add heat to your middle back (/lower ribs). Heat boosts blood flow to the adrenal glands, which normalizes function including cortisol production (and also blood pressure). Bath / hot water bottle / heat pack / electric blanket etc. all work.

Safe, low cost, easy for most people in most circumstances. (YMMV)

🧠 New paper by Huang et al.: By using #pharmacological #fMRI and dynamic #connectome-based #PredictiveModeling, they show how #cortisol reshapes whole-brain #NetworkDynamics during emotional memory encoding. Trial-level analyses reveal distinct but increasingly integrated #arousal and #memory networks under #stress, supporting a hormonally driven "memory formation mode".

Fig. 2. Analysis design. (A) Schematic of the trial-level phase synchrony extraction approach. (B) Schematic of dCPM. Edges that are significantly correlated with memory/arousal are selected. A linear model is then trained to predict memory/arousal on the left-out trial. This model is separately applied to all four study conditions (pill × emotionality) to yield four predictive networks.

Fatigue, anxiété, prise de poids: sur les réseaux sociaux, le cortisol, responsable de tous les maux
factuel.afp.com/doc.afp.com.78

De nombreux influenceurs et pseudo-coachs ont dans leurs viseurs le cortisol, l'hormone du stress, affirmant que son dérèglement serait responsable de maux résumés sous le terme de "fatigue surrénalienne". Ces internautes cherchent souvent à vendre des programmes alimentaires personnalisés, des compléments alimentaires ou poussent même à réaliser des tests en dehors du circuit médical classique. Mais la "fatigue surrénalienne" n'existe pas, assurent des experts, dénonçant des discours mercantiles.

Another Quack For Capitalism

A Pediatrician Recently went Viral on Tiktok Claiming the Biggest Factor Shaping Children’s Future is NOT how Their parents raised them, but Their Friends & Neighborhood and Their Genetics. So if you want healthy successful kids just move to a bougie neighborhood, get them into an elite school, and make sure they have the right friends. Oh, and make sure to give them genes for whiteness and wealth.

In reality neighborhood does correlate with many indicators of health and success, but that is because people who can afford more affluent neighborhoods are more affluent themselves. That means they can afford healthier diets, good Healthcare, intellectually enriching activities for their kids like summer travel, internships, camps museums, music and art lessons. It means lower levels of cortisol due to less worry about rent, Healthcare, groceries & Homelessness; less stress from multiple asshole bosses at your multiple jobs. And lower cortisol means lower risk of heart attacks, stroke diabetes and cancer. Also lower risk of premature births learning disabilities and cognitive impairment. The more affluent neighborhood also means lower risk of environmental contaminants and exposure to smoke and lead, which also can lead to birth defects and learning disabilities.

Yes, more affluent neighborhoods
often do have more successful schools (as measured by test scores graduation rates college admittance). Sometimes this is related to funding. But mostly it's a product of having higher proportions of affluent students, who tend to come to school with much more social capital and academic readiness due to the privileges of being from affluent families.

But if you really want healthy, successful kids, move to a European country where they offer childcare, paid family leave, 6 weeks of paid vacation, socialized Healthcare. Where they actually fund their schools, pay their teachers a living wage, and don't have school shootings every week.
