Stress Kills

Stress is very common in todays world. Did you know that chronic stress is worse than almost anything that you can do to yourself? Stress can cause just about any disease.

Ask yourself this very important question? Is whatever you are chronically stressed about really worth dying from?

Chances are if you are reading this; you or someone that you know is probably chronically stressed. There life starts off early in the morning and doesn't slow down until they get home. They get a rush from staying busy and the more tasks that they can accomplish the better. This is very typical for someone who is chronically stressed and is very bad for their health.

The frequent rush that people get is from an increase in adrenalin. It causes the body to be in a constant fight or flight which is great if you are being chased by a tiger. Otherwise it is just overstimulating your body and is a problem when it happens on a daily basis.

Stress causes cortosol which is a hormone that can be responsible for obesity especially in the abdominal area. As you probably already know obesity can cause a host of problems.

What does it mean to be healthy?

What do you think that health is? Many of us think that health is just the absence of disease. If I feel good I must be healthy. I challenge you to think about the definition of health according to the World Health Organization. Health is “a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” How many times do you hear of someone that was doing just fine. They exercised regularly and ate well. The next thing that you know you hear that they had a heart attack. Do you think that this person was well? The obvious answer is no.

You may be asking how can I be healthy? There are several aspects to health the physical, emotional and spiritual. Don't miss out on some great information. Subscribe Today!
