Stress hormones are the same ones that trigger your body’s “fight or flight” response.
Your heart races, your breath quickens, and your muscles ready for action.
This response was designed to protect your body in an emergency by preparing you to react quickly.
But when the stress response keeps firing, day after day, it could put your health at serious risk.
Your central nervous system (CNS) is in charge of your “fight or flight” response.
In your brain, the hypothalamus gets the ball rolling, telling your adrenal glands to release the stress hormones adrenaline and cortisol.
These hormones rev up your heartbeat and send blood rushing to the areas that need it most in an emergency, such as your muscles, heart, and other important organs.
Under stress, your liver produces extra blood sugar (glucose) to give you a boost of energy.
If you’re under chronic stress, your body may not be able to keep up with this extra glucose surge.
Chronic stress may increase your risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
Stress stimulates the immune system, which can be a plus for immediate situations.
This stimulation can help you avoid infections and heal wounds.
But over time, stress hormones will weaken your immune system and reduce your body’s response to foreign invaders.
People under chronic stress are more susceptible to viral illnesses like the flu and the common cold, as well as other infections.
Stress can also increase the time it takes you to recover from an illness or injury.
WHAT EVER IT TAKES TO LET GO THE SHIT THAT’S STRESSING YOU OUT.. DO IT!!!!
DON’T ALLOW WHAT EVER IT IS TO GET YOU DOWN... WHEN TIMES ARE LOW.; HIGH TIMES ARE COMING!
WHEN TIMES ARE HIGH.. PREPARE FOR LIFES CYCLE OF A LOW 👌🏾
