Today's Main Article

 

   Prolonged Stress and It's Effect on Immunity and Disease  

Excerts from the Los Angeles Times Newspaper on 03/29/04

Jane E. Allen (Times Staff Writer)

Prolonged stress contributes to many physical and psychological ills. It overrides natural defenses against viruses that cause AIDS, chickenpox and the common cold: encourages the production of inflammatory hormones that drive heart disease, obesity and diabetes; sparks flare-ups of rheumatoid arthritis and digestive disorders;creates depression and ages the brain.

"Numerous studies show that psychological stress can lead to illness, or even death," said Dr. Michael Irwin, director of the Norman Cousins Center for Psychoneuroimmunology at UCLA's Neuropsychiatric Institute.

"How we cope with our stress and whether or not, we get depressed is crucial for our health."

When someone is confronted with stress-whether physical or psychological-the brain is the first part of the body to respond, reacting in two distinct ways.

'The body responds to stress through two routes:

The Hypothalamus sends signals through sympathetic nerves near the spinal cord, telling the adrenal glands to begin pumping two stress hormones, epinephrine and norepinephrine

The pituitary gland sends a chemical signal through the blood, telling the adrenal glands to release cortisol and other steroids.

The Damaging Affects of Severe Prolonged Stress

Brain: Stress hormones damage brain cells and impairs memory.

Heart: Raises blood pressure and stimulates the production of inflammatory hormones, which contribute to the build up of plaque in the arteries.

Stress hormones also cause the body to deposit fat around the abodomen, a risk factor for hypertension, heart disease and diabetes.

Digestive System

Triggers pain, gas and other symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome and aggravates stomach ulcers.

Joints:

Levels of hormones called inflammatory cytokines (already elevated in rheumatoid arthritis patients) rise further, making joints even more painful, inflamed and swollen.

Heart

Stress hormones activate the production of proteins called inflammatory cytokines, which cause immune cells to become sticky and grab onto the lining of coronary arteries. The contributes to the build-up of artery-narrowing plaque, which can cause heart attacks."

Editors  Note

I might also add that stress makes PMS and female hormone problems worse.  Prolonged stress will cause hormone imbalance in your estrogen which in turn feeds fibroid tumors.  It also causes flare ups in Fibromyalgia symptoms and  other disorders and diseases.

An example is dyslexia which is a learning disorder. The more stress, the worse the symptoms get, such as memory problems, and direction confusion, and making mistakes on a computer or a a cash register.

   Interesting Research Clips

 

 These Vitamins Help Fight Alzheimer's

In a recent study of more than 4,700 men and women over the age of 65, those who reported regularly taking both Vitamin E and Vitamin C were about 60 percent less likely to develop the disease than non-supplement users.

This lowered risk was only seen among people who took at least 400 IU of Vit E and 500 mg of Vitamin C every day.

More clinical trials are needed to confirm this finding.

 

  Coloring Your Hair : Think About this first?

The evidence is getting stronger that women who have used permanent dark hair color since before 1980 were one third more likely to develop non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma than women who left their locks natural.

Women who started after 1980 or used semipermanent or temporary dyes, had no greater risk.

They feel the reason is that manufacturers took out carcinogenic chemicals around 1980 from their products after the FDA required warning labels.
