In this video, we’re going to talk about cortisol spikes after surgery.

Now, it would make sense if stress didn’t go up too much because of anesthesia—you can’t feel pain while under. However, this isn’t the case.

Your body still feels and reacts to pain while under. In turn, your body reacts to it with cortisol—the stress hormone.

How much cortisol spikes correlate with the severity of an invasive procedure.

Surgery activates both the inside and outside of the adrenals. This causes an increase in both cortisol and adrenaline.

When your cortisol is raised, you may also lose potassium. This is why they often give you a potassium IV.

You can also experience fluctuations in glucose levels and retain more sodium.

In general, there are a lot of post-operative effects that go on, including:
• Temporary memory loss
• Decreased learning
• Inflammation
• Decreased immune function
• Increased catabolic effect
• Decreased wound healing
• Autoimmune issues - Guillain Barre Syndrome
• Depression
• Anxiety
• Low electrolytes

If you are coming up on surgery and want to minimize your cortisol and adrenal response, you can do intermittent fasting and then fast a day before you go into surgery. This will help strengthen your adrenals and give you some resistance to stress. It will increase your ability to resist oxidative stress.

You can also do healthy keto. Ketones are anti-inflammatory, which may help with symptoms.

It’s important to get plenty of electrolytes both before and after surgery because of the stress response and depleting potassium.
