Description

This lecture explores the impact of stress on weight gain, focusing on the role of Cortisol in the body's response to stress and how prolonged exposure to stress can disrupt the feedback loop, leading to increased appetite and consumption of comfort food, ultimately resulting in the accumulation of visceral fat and potential health issues like insulin resistance.
