  • Has anyone tried that Cortisol?

    Is it Cortisol, I think thats what it's called. The pill that you take to supposedly reduce belly fat that is caused by stress. Well anyway I hope I have the right name but what I really want to know is does it work?

    I've seen it at the stores and it looks pretty pricey, I'm not sure if I really need it or not, Debbie Siebers keeps my abs in check, but wondering if anyone here has tried it and how it worked for them.

    Ok, thanks.

    Dr. Atkins talks about excess weight around your waist. He states that this is often the first sign your body is not metabolizing sugar properly.

    So, IMHO ..... first if skinny came in a pill I would have EVERY single one. and trust me I have tried alot of them!

    Second, the best cure for excess weight around your waist is ATKINS!

        I asked about that at GNC. Cortisol will only work if you are under some sort of stress for whatever reason. Stress releases a chemical that makes it difficult to lose belly fat. The Cortisol will work on that chemical so that the belly fat can start disappearing WITH diet and exercise.

        I was impressed that he actually told me if I wasn't under stress that it wasn't going to work. He wasn't just out to sell the product.

        We need to stick with our Atkins.

          Guys, cortisol is a stress hormone that causes tummy fat.

            And, don't waste your money on that crap. If you want to take supplements, I suggest CLA, L-tyrosine, DHEA and 7-keto. These helped me jumpstart my loss again, and they will cost all together about what a Relacore will cost you.

              I think the stuff GNC has is called Cortislim or Cortaid... something like that. But G-Mom is right... don't use it.
