Summary: <p>Let’s talk about stress. I recently experienced a stress event, and I want to talk about what happens in the body when a person goes through something like this. We’re also going to discuss how to get rid of stress and how to prevent stress. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Certain stressors on the body, like exercise, heat therapy, or cold therapy, are in your control and have positive effects on the body. </p> <p><br></p> <p>But, negative stress is out of your control and can have harmful effects. This lack of control could be related to a situation, condition, or relationship. </p> <p><br></p> <p>In a stress state, you have a lot of involuntary glandular secretions and reactions occurring. Two parts of the body have both involuntary and voluntary control: the diaphragm and skeletal muscles. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Controlled breathing exercises and walking are powerful to put yourself back in control of these systems and pull yourself out of a reactive fight or flight mode. </p> <p><br></p> <p>It’s also important to understand that a vitamin B1 deficiency can mimic mild hypoxia and trigger your stress reflexes. Vitamin B1 is crucial to help pull yourself out of a stress state and even prevent stress. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Overall, the best things when dealing with stress are: </p> <p>1. Controlled breathing exercises </p> <p>2. Walks</p> <p>3. Vitamin B1</p> <p><br></p> <p>DATA: <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25542071/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25542071/</a></p>
