Masaba Gupta is a strict connoisseur of healthy eating. But sometimes even the best of us slip. In her latest Instagram entry, the fashion designer opened up about suffering from high cortisol levels. ICYDK: Cortisol, aka the body's stress hormone, helps regulate sugar, blood pressure, and inflammation. Cortisol may rise due to several factors, including a lack of physical activity, a poor diet, chronic stress, and improper sleep. In such cases, focusing on what you eat plays a key role in managing your cortisol - and that is exactly what Masaba did.
