Stress is a normal part of daily
life. However poorly managed stress can lead to a variety of health issues such as emotional, psychological and even physical problems. The physical issues that can arise from high stress levels include coronary problems such as hyper tension (high blood pressure), chest pains, artery disease and more. Of course stress is not the only cause of these health issues but it is one of the more controllable contributors.

So why does stress have such and adverse effect on health? Experts are still unsure as to the direct reason there are a few possible links. The first reason is that stressful situations cause blood pressure to rise. This condition, also called hyper tension, puts more strain on the entire cardio vascular system including the heart. Also
during times of stress the body produces high levels of adrenaline and cortisol. Both of these hormones play a vital role in coping with stress but excessive levels adversely affect blood pressure and can lead to variety of other
diseases.
Stress can also indirectly damage the body by influencing people's behavioral patterns which can lead to self destructive behaviors. People's eating habits often are affected by stress and individuals may find themselves overeating or not eating at all. Stress can lead to an increase in alcohol consumption and smoking and a decrease in exercise. Even though everyone reacts differently to stress the end result is usually damaging to a persons health.
There are a variety of ways to reduce stress. Regular exercise is a great way to reduce stress as well as improve your body's health. Another great defense is learning to stay positive. Negativity creates extra stress that with the right attitude can be avoided. Stress can also be reduced throughmeditation, yoga and massage. These techniques are excellent at relaxing the mind and improving the body.
