In reply to Benny. The stress response is critical and needed. We just don't need added stressors.

Thanks.

Any thoughts on the use of isolation or noise-canceling headphones to reduce stress levels? (For someone in poor health: CIRS, Lyme, etc and very irritable)

Sorry to say it like this but when I read this article, I feel like WHOLE LIFE is a stress. You eat ? you generate cortisol, you don’t eat ? you generate cortisol. You breathe ? Oxidative stress wouldn’t be if there was no oxygen. Life wouldn’t be without cortisol. I think we need to take global moves about stress and not finetuning that precisely, you’ll spend your life stressing about “sh*t, I got a reward, dopamine raises stress, I shouldn’t be eating blueberries cause they raise BDNF, and BDNFstimulates the HPA axis “
