When you are stressed, your body shifts focus away from digestion to survival.

Nutrient absorption reduces
The stomach may feel uncomfortable

This can lead to:
Bloating

Stress Hormones: Cortisol & Adrenaline

When your body is under stress, it releases hormones like Cortisol and Adrenaline.

Adrenaline works quickly:
Increases heart rate
Raises blood pressure
Boosts energy
Cortisol works over time:
Regulates energy
Affects metabolism
Controls inflammation

These hormones are helpful in short bursts, but when constantly elevated, they can negatively affect your health.
Stay tuned to know what happens when the level of stress increases over time.

What the Brain does when we're Stress.

Stress begins in the brain, particularly in a small but powerful part called the Hypothalamus.

This part of the brain acts like a control center. When it detects stress, it sends signals to the rest of the body through nerves and hormones.

It communicates with the adrenal glands and nervous system to prepare the body for action.

This shows that stress is not just emotional—it is a physical process controlled by the brain.

👉 Have you ever felt your body react instantly to a stressful situation?
