Stress Harasses Health in Different Forms

A stressful situation causes your hypothalamus (brain regime) to send signals to your <x0-second defense”, which manifest themselves in frequent heartbeats, rapid breathing and perspiration.

This situation is considered a situation of stress, but if you repeat it over and over again, it is under chronic stress that causes serious health damage.

Chronic stress affects health in various forms from the endocrine system to the nervous system.

Chronic Stress Harms

The cardiovascular system

In the process of responding to stress, breathing is accelerated, and blood must circulate faster to supply oxygen. Stress also increases pressure and expands blood arteries.

The Training System

In a stress situation, the liver produces high amounts of glucose to increase energy. If you are going through chronic stress, the liver constantly produces glucose, and the body becomes impossible to process. As a result, glucose increases and diabetes develops. In addition to diabetes, people experiencing chronic stress may also face diarrhea, conspiracy, vomiting, or stomach pain.

The muscle system

During stress situations, muscles contract to try “to protect”. But if stress persists and becomes chronic, then muscles lose their ability to relax and cause pain.

The Reproductive System

In addition to physical injuries, stress affects the human nervous system. People who face chronic stress find it very difficult to enjoy sexual activity by producing less amount of testosterone.

Mymune System

Stress hormones damage the immune system and weaken the immune response to foreign agents.
