http://www.findyourbodytype.com If you have an adrenal body type, you know that you are faced with two main opponents to your well being: getting a good night's sleep due to restlessness, and food cravings. Both of these opponents are due to your body being exposed to stress too much, and because of this, you are always after energy, preferably natural, but you'll take whatever comes your way: coffee, energy drinks, and chocolate, to name a few. This leads to having a hard time sleeping regular hours.

When your body can't handle stress, it creates an increase of the hormone cortisol. The nature of Cortisol is to help you survive and handle stress. Excess cortisol causes belly fat because "Fat" to the body, is "potential energy." Belly fat accumulates as energy "reserves". Your body works in this cycle: the more stress, the more cortisol and consequntly, the more energy reserves. This results in more fat storage. You have the most challenging body type because of this imbalance.
