The Stress Hormones — Adrenaline & Cortisol ⚡ Something startles you — and before you can even think, your body has already changed. Two tiny glands on top of your kidneys are responsible. Adrenaline floods your blood in seconds — heart pounding, airways open, sugar pouring from your liver as fuel, blood rushing to your muscles. Then cortisol, the slower wave, keeps the fuel flowing for as long as danger lasts — and gives the all-clear when it ends. Two stress hormones — one for seconds, one for staying power. Educational content only — not medical advice. Which one have you felt — the instant adrenaline rush, or long stress that will not switch off? 👇 #stress #cortisol #adrenaline #hormones #adrenalgland - @muhammadrashidkhan61
