- staticassertion 8y agoReduces the time to remove the cortisol.
- eksemplar 8y agoWell, a reduction in the time it takes to remove the bad thing, is a positive, isn’t it?
- mango7283 8y agoI think what they means is that the amount removed per unit time remains the same, so if the body spends less time removing cortisol there will be a buildup.
- wallace_f 8y agothis is hilarious. two comments from two different users made the same apparent mistakes with their intended meaning.
- JimDabell 8y ago"reduces the time taken" = "speeds up" From context, it seems like the intended meaning is that caffeine slows down the cortisol removal, but what was actually written was that it speeds up cortisol removal.
- amelius 8y agoWhat if cortisol isn't the problem, but the production of it? Afaiu, the adrenals are like a switch: if they produce cortisol, they can't produce other hormones. So keeping cortisol up through other means could possibly be beneficial.
