Central Nervous System Support
Any substantial change in your routine, including changes for the better as well as changes for the worse, will make demands on mental and emotional resources. Research has shown that as stresses accumulate, an individual becomes increasingly susceptible to physical illness, behavioral and emotional problems and accidental injuries as well. Listed here are the parts of the body that are susceptible to stress-related diseases.
Digestive Tract Diseases of the digestive tract that can be either caused or aggravated by stress include gastritis, stomach and duodenal ulcers, ulcerative colitis and irritable colon.
Reproductive Organs Stress related problems in this part of the body include menstrual disorders such as absence of periods in women and impotence in men.
Bladder The bladders of many people react to stress by becoming "irritable".
Skin Some people have outbreaks of skin problems such as eczema and psoriasis when subjected to abnormal stress.
Brain Many behavioral and emotional problems, among them anxiety and depression, may be triggered by stress.
Hair Some forms of baldness, among them alopecia areata, have been linked to high levels of stress.
Mouth Certain mouth problems such as aphthous ulcers and oral lichen planus often seem to crop up under stress.
Lungs Asthmatics often find that their condition worsens when they are subjected to high levels of mental or emotional stress.
Heart Attacks of angina and disturbances of the heart rate and rhythm often occur at the same time or shortly after periods of stress.
Muscles Various minor muscle twitches and nervous tics become more noticeable when the individual is under stress.
