5 Reasons Women Broke The Cortisol Loop
Cortisol up, you don’t sleep. You don’t sleep, cortisol’s up. Dr. Martin on the loop, and what finally stopped it.
Dr. Martin: “70% of North Americans Can’t Sleep!?”
“I don’t even wake up during the night anymore.”Lise D. · verified Cortisol Control customer
Hey, it’s Dr. Martin here.
I used to talk about this on the radio show all the time. Seventy percent of North Americans have trouble sleeping. Seventy percent.
They never get into a real REM sleep. They lie there wired. And there is a lot of anxiety.
In clinic I saw the same thing over and over. The woman was not doing it wrong. She was going after the wrong end of it.
Here are five reasons that changed.
“Your cortisol’s up, you don’t sleep. You don’t sleep, your cortisol’s up. It’s a vicious cycle.”
Dr. Martin
It goes after the hormone keeping you awake
Most sleep aids work on the sleep. They never touch the reason you are awake.
Cortisol is your stress hormone. When it stays high in the evening your body still reads daytime. So you lie there wired.
Then the loop closes. A short night pushes cortisol higher the next day, and the higher it climbs the worse the next night gets. That is the vicious cycle, and it is why one more sleep pill never ended it.
Women were not doing it wrong. They were treating the sleep instead of the cortisol.


The 3 a.m. wake-ups settle down
For most women, falling asleep was never really the problem. Staying asleep was.
Out cold by ten. Wide awake at three. Then watching the ceiling until the alarm goes.
That middle-of-the-night wake-up is a cortisol pattern. It climbs hours before it should, and it takes you with it.
Bring the evening cortisol down and the night stops breaking in half. Women often report the change inside the first two to three weeks.

Two capsules a day, with food. 60 capsules a bottle, so one bottle is 30 days.
It works in weeks, not years
Imagine trying one more thing every few months and getting the same night back every time.
Here is what women actually tell us, in the order they tell us:
- First two to three weeks. Sleeping through the night is what they mention first.
- Around the same time. Calmer through the day, less wound up by the evening.
- After that. Waking up rested instead of waking up already behind.
Because it works on the cortisol side of the loop and not only the sleep side, the night has a reason to stay fixed.
It replaces the pile of sleep aids
You know the drawer. One thing for falling asleep, one for staying asleep, one for the stress that started it.
A new bottle every time the nights get worse, and still the same three in the morning.
Cortisol Control is one formula, 60 capsules, aimed at the root of the loop. Relora, rhodiola, ashwagandha and L-theanine in one capsule.

After only a few days I noticed better, uninterrupted sleep and an overall sense of calmness and a happier outlook. I am very happy with my results.
Delivers the best sleep I’ve ever had. I wake up well rested with no puffy face.
So thankful for cortisol control. It definitely helps me sleep and manage stress.
I’ve been taking Cortisol for the past 3 weeks and definitely helped my sleep! It’s amazing I don’t even wake up during the night anymore!
I started taking 2 pills before bed to improve my sleep and I have noticed much better deep and REM sleep with an overall higher rating on my Fitbit! I’m thrilled!
I have used this product for 7 months. It has helped me reach a deep restorative sleep. I feel better, function better and think better. Truly amazing!
It helps me sleep.
Using this cortisol formula is a MUST for me. I have had trouble falling asleep and then waking up in the middle of the night. This cortisol control helps me unwind, relax and get an overall better nights sleep… The best I have found and have tried several.
Before Cortisol Control my sleep deprivation was at an all time high. After one week of taking this product I was finally getting a much needed “full” nights sleep.
It took a few weeks but my sleep has finally improved. I take my two capsules, one for lunch and one 30 min before bedtime, as per Dr Martin’s instructions. I may not sleep 8 hours but I sleep straight thru the night. Thank you Dr Martin.
I felt an immediate difference when I started to take Cortisol Control. I could sleep better leading to better quality of life.
This product has helped me a great deal on my most stressful days. It helped me to calm down and get a good nights sleep. I would refer this product to anyone.
I have been taking Cortisol Control around 8 pm each night and it truly helps me fall asleep. Most nights I sleep right through. Thanks for giving us this supplement.
The Cortisol Control Formula settles me down so that I can fall asleep easily.

Dr. Martin
P.S. Everybody is different. This is education, not advice.
At the Martin Clinic, pillar #10 is simple. You are your own best doctor.
How long before I notice a difference?
Most women mention the first change in the first two to three weeks, and sleeping through the night is usually the first thing they say. Feeling calmer through the day tends to follow it. Give it the full bottle before you decide.
When do I take it, and how many?
Two capsules a day, with food, straight off the label. Plenty of women split them, one at midday and one in the evening. 60 capsules a bottle, so one bottle covers 30 days.
Will it knock me out or leave me groggy?
It is not a sedative. It was built to bring cortisol down rather than to knock you out, which is why women take it during the day as well as the evening. If anything they tell us they wake up rested instead of already behind.
I have tried sleep supplements before and nothing worked.
Most of them work on the sleep. None of them touch the cortisol that has you awake in the first place. That is the whole difference here. You are going after the other end of the loop.
Can I take it with my other supplements or medication?
Everybody is different, and this is education rather than advice. If you are on medication, run it past your own doctor first.
What if it does not work for me?
Then you send it back. You have 60 days. If your sleep does not change, send back what is left and we refund every cent. No questions. No hard feelings.
