Physiology of stress

Stress physiology is the body's response to demands or threats, including: nervous, hormonal, muscular and circulatory systems.

Definicja

Stress is not just a thought. The body reacts with muscle tension, changes in breathing, heart stimulation, activation of the stress axis and changes in the digestive or immune system. A short-term stress response can be motivating, but chronic stress burdens the body and can impair functioning.
