Palmitic Acid Inhibits Cortisol Synthesis
Palmitic acid has a bad reputation in mainstream medical circles. It is being blamed for insulin resistance, obesity, and even triggering diabetes II. Ray has written a few times about palmitic acid, and has explained that it is one of the few known exogenous factors that can activate the enzyme...- haidut

Aspirin (salicylic Acid) Inhibits Cortisol Synthesis
I posted several studies on aspirin and sodium salicylate being effective in reversing insulin resistance and type II diabetes in humans. However, to my knowledge the mechanism of action of aspirin and other prodrugs for salicylic acid has never been publicly elucidated even though Ray has...- haidut

This matches well the few animal studies I have posted showing caffeine and...- haidut

The Anti-cortisol Effects Of Niacinamide
This is yet another confirmation of my suspicion that sedative substances lower cortisol levels. Niacinamide is officially recognized as a GABA-A agonist, but apparently this is not the major reason behind its effect on cortisol. The enzyme that de-activates cortisol - 11b-HSD2 - is apparently...- haidut
