Stressed out?

A
 major cause of poor immunity is STRESS! The stress response is a result of everyday conditions like frustration, worry, anger, fear, overwork, pollution, insufficient sleep and emotional conflict. In response to these stressors the adrenal system produces and releases excessive amounts of the hormone cortisol which upsets the body’s blood sugar levels. Ongoing stress depletes the adrenal system of the nutrients required to make adrenal hormones which are vital for many bodily functions including the prevention of allergies, infections and inflammation3.
