Stress Is The Number 1 Health Problem

Keep cool!! Yeah,,now stress can be seriously healthy problem!! Stress has been featured prominently in the news as a major health epidemic for some years now and this situation continues to worsen as an increasing number of workers report they are increasingly suffering stress in the workplace. In fact work now constitutes the leading environment for the development of stress among adult Americans. But stress levels have also been rising for children and teenagers in recent years and a lot of people now link this to a loss of family and religious values, a lack of social support and simple corporate greed.

Stress these days is far more dangerous than it was just ten years ago and seems to be more prevalent and more invasive than before with much greater stress coming from psychological instead of physical threats.

Stress causes a rise in heart rate and increased flow of blood leading in turn to higher blood pressure. Blood sugar levels also increase to provide the body with the added fuel which it requires to fight stress and our body is designed to move blood away from the stomach when under stress to provide additional strength in the legs and arms as part of what is typically referred to as our “flight or fight” response.
