The Enemy Within

Stress and tension are one of the worst diseases known to mankind. They are not only known to cause terminal diseases such as cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, but affect all the aspects (physical, mental and spiritual) of the human life. We all know that stress causes skin problems like acne and that constantly being stressed makes us look dull and older. But until recently there was no scientific evidence to link the mind induced emotions to the body. Scientists used biological markers to stimulate stress and the relation of the body to conclude that a month’s of continuous stress can setback a person’s appearance by almost one year. Stress is known to cause skin wrinkles and is also known to cause skin diseases such as eczema. Stress also causes anxiety which triggers our receptors for food. Thus, if you’ve ever gotten through a huge pack of ice-cream in anxiety, know that is probably induced by stress.
