What's really going on with your cortisol—and what does it have to do with your cravings, belly fat, burnout, or why you're wide awake at 2 a.m.?

In this episode of the FASTer Way podcast, CEO Amanda Tress sits down with Dr. Stephen Cabral—renowned naturopath, functional medicine expert, and member of the FASTer Way Scientific Advisory Board—for a science-meets-real-life convo on all things cortisol.

Dr. Cabral shares his personal journey from debilitating adrenal burnout and Addison's disease to thriving, and why cortisol is not the enemy—it's your body's secret weapon for energy, fat burning, and hormone balance… when it's working for you, not against you.

You'll learn:

• The real signs your cortisol rhythm is off (hint: it's not just about stress)

• Why carbs are a must if you want to heal your hormones

• How to structure your training and lifestyle to support recovery instead of sabotage it

• The sneaky way sleep, blood sugar, and thyroid health all tie into cortisol

• The supplement and testing strategies that actually move the needle

And BIG NEWS: We're teasing an exciting new at-home Cortisol Lab Test coming soon to the FASTer Way! Morning, noon, night—it'll tell you what's really going on with your stress hormones and help you tailor your training, nutrition, and recovery plan for results.

Whether you're feeling wired and tired, dealing with hormonal weight gain, or just want to get ahead of midlife burnout—this one's packed with practical strategies you can start using TODAY.
