Stress is anything that disturbs your equilibrium or strains your system or any force—physical or psychological—that tears downs your body every day: air pollution, amalgam fillings, allergies, conflicts, drugs, death in the family, driving to work, fast food, financial problems, infections, insomnia, pessimism, pollens and molds and much more.


Signs of chronic stress can appear in as many forms as the malfunctions that stress causes: loss of deep sleep, loss of muscle mass, reduced endurance, bone loss, chronic fatigue, increased fat storage, loss of interest in sex, and many more.


Stress forces your brain to release chemical messengers that increase your heart rate and blood pressure, disturb your hormone balance, and impair your digestion and thus nutrient absorption, and much more. Chronic stress is like driving with one foot on the brake and one on the gas: your body will wear out prematurely because it creates vicious cycles that cascade into illnesses.
