Thanks for the video!
I have a question about the mechanism of insulin resistance. Don't the free cortisol levels remain the same, while the total cortisol levels go up? How does this have an effect on mediating insulin resistance?

[@joannaroy5270]

FA talks about HPL as the cause for increased insulin resistance.
