Chronic stress can lead to a number of behavioural changes
and physical health problems. When a person is subjected to stress the body
responds with activating the neuro-hormone ‘Corticotrophin Releasing Factor’ (CRF).
In the case of chronic stress this release is increasing in length and volume
in areas of the brain associated with fear and emotion. It thereby changes the
body's response causing health-related stress problems such as anxiety,
depression, irritability, insomnia, and even infertility.
Dermatologists have identified that increased cortisol levels in the body caused by stress can lead to hair falling out, acne breaking out, and to many other problems.
Indeed, stress can lead to an increase in inflammations and central nervous system infections. It is known to affect the effectiveness of vaccines, is linked to endometriosis, and can cause digestive difficulties that range from stomach aches to diarrhoea.
yeah right. I agree with it stress is really bad to our body. But the good thing is that still laughter is the best medicine. vitamins
