Explanation:

Look cortisol is very essential for a persons health as this is the hormone ( which is produced in adrenal glands) which sees how the body is going to respond to the stress. This cortisol hormone helps in controlling the blood pressure, controlling sugar levels in our blood etc.

But if the levels of cortisol are increase then the CRH (Corticotropin releasing hormone) and ACTH(Adrenocorticotropic hormone) also increases which can lead to the corticotrop tumor.

With the increase in the cortisol levels , it will lead to the decrease in the inflammation and also our body won't react to the stress properly, our blood sugar levels and stress levels with blood pressure would increase which leads to bad effects on the heart.

So therefore we can say that the option e is correct.
