The sympathetic nervous system’s primary function is to stimulate your body’s fight-or-flight response. </p> <p><br></p> <p>When your body is in a fight or flight state, your adrenal glands are activated, which sharply increases your levels of cortisol and adrenaline. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Our bodies aren’t made to endure long periods of time in fight or flight mode—you can endure 90 seconds or less without a problem. However, today’s environments at work and in daily activities promote the fight or flight system to work endlessly, which just isn’t healthy. </p> <p><br></p> <p>The problem is, when you get stressed, you cannot heal or recover. When fight-or-flight mode is always activated, you…</p> <p>• Are unable to get good sleep</p> <p>• Cannot heal</p> <p>• Release glucose</p> <p>• Can’t recover</p> <p>• Can experience poor digestion</p> <p>• Have poor wound healing</p> <p>• Retain sodium</p> <p>• Excrete potassium</p> <p>• May cause damage to your hippocampus </p> <p>• Have added risk of disease and infection</p> <p>• Experience chronic inflammation</p> <p>• Experience an increased risk of heart disease</p> <p>• Experience bone loss</p> <p>• Experience a loss of collagen formation</p> <p><br></p> <p>You can help reduce your stress levels with these simple things:</p> <p>• Exercise:</p> <p>• Diet</p> <p>• Fasting</p> <p>• Acupressure </p> <p>• Vitamin B1, potassium, and magnesium</p> <p>• Breathing exercises </p> <p>• Vacation/taking time off</p> <p>• Not taking things so seriously</p> <p><br></p> <p>Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:</p> <p>Dr. Berg, 51 years of age is a chiropractor who specializes in weight loss through nutritional & natural methods.
