10 Silent Signals of stress and the 7 key body systems that will make you sick

Demonstrated in the above list, stress can have wide ranging effects on emotions, mood and behavior. Equally important but often less appreciated are effects on various systems, organs and tissues all over the body
1. Nervous System
When stressed the body releases more adrenaline putting the body into the “fight or flight” response
2. Musculoskeletal System
Under stress muscles tense up causing headaches, migraines and various musculoskeletal conditions
3. Respiratory System
Stress can cause rapid breathing, hyperventilation and panic attacks
4. Cardiovascular System
Repeated episodes of cute stress can cause inflammation in the coronary arteries, which is linked to increased heart attacks
5. Endocrine System
The brain signals the Adrenal glands to release more cortisol and epinephrine, the “stress hormones”
These hormones stimulate the liver to produce more glucose, increasing the blood sugar and over time increase the risk of diabetes
6. Gastrointestinal System
Esophagus – increase of heartburn or acid reflux
Stomach – “butterflies” nausea or pain
Bowels – experience either diarrhea or constipation
7. Reproductive System
Men – impair testosterone, sperm production, cause impotence and reduce sexual desire
Women – absent or irregular menstrual cycles or more painful periods, and reduce sexual desire
