Gotta relieve that stress!

"“It’s probably just stress.” How many times have you uttered those words to yourself to dismiss a headache, pain or illness?

But stress is not “just” some benign complaint. Instead, it’s a powerful risk factor for disease, notes a recent commentary in The Journal of the American Medical Association. The article focuses on evidence showing that stress is linked to an increased risk for heart attacks, depression, cancer and the progression of H.I.V. and AIDS."

    • I learned the hard way that stress is a serious problem. My extremely high stress level contributed to the worsening of my autoimmune disease. This article gives a nice overview of why we need to wake up and stop accepting stress as a consequence of life. It really doesn't have to be.
