Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Feeling stressed? Here's five ways to manage it better
When you’re in stressful situations, like being attacked, in danger, or
under pressure, the stress hormone called Cortisol is released. It helps the
body manage stress by increasing blood sugar and enhancing the brain’s use
of glucose. Also, it regulates metabolism, blood pressure, immune function, and
the sleep-wake cycle. So, feeling stressed could help you regulate physical
and mental conditions for a short time. However, when stress continues, it can lead
to physical health problems, including heart disease, high blood pressure, Type
2 diabetes, obesity, digestive issues, and a weakened immune system. Also,
chronic stress could cause or worsen anxiety, depression, fatigue, and
irritability. Indeed, managing stress is essential for your performance and health.
You should accept stress, do any exercise, go to bed earlier, talk to others,
and try not to worry about it too much. Hope these tips won’t add any stress to
you!
Read the article and learn about what stress does to you and how you
should manage it.
