Claim Breakdown:
📝 Fact Check: This is a dramatic oversimplification. While chronically high cortisol levels, particularly in a condition called Cushing's syndrome, can cause fat to be redistributed to the face (creating a 'moon face') and abdomen, these symptoms are not exclusive to high cortisol. 🩺 Most cases of belly fat or a double chin are related to overall body fat, diet, genetics, and other lifestyle factors, not necessarily a hormonal imbalance. Diagnosing high cortisol requires medical testing, not just looking in the mirror.
