The Adrenal Gland is what produces cortisol.
During (twards the end) a cycle cortisol gets pretty high.
The body is trying to get away from being anabolic.
Coritsol, estrogen, are the bodies way of trying to combat what you are doing to try to get back to homeostasis (ballance).

After a cycle the adrenal gland can get kindof burned out.
DHEA also comes from the adrenal gland and this probably should be supplemented after a cycle too.
So keeping cortisol in check would be a good thing after a cycle to minimise muscle loss due to low test levels.

Cortisol is involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fat, and protein.
So blocking it totally would not be good.
But keeping stress levels would be probably one of the best things you can do to keep cortisol in check along with a good diet.
