Stress Undermines Health

So in this article we're going to find out about Reishi Mushroom, which is probably the most important herb in the world. And why I say that, why I make that claim, is that this herb is the most scientifically investigated of any herb ever known, ever studied. On top of that, it's one of the most revered, if not the most revered, herb of all of ancient China.

Stress plays a huge roll as it is linked to our immune system. Now one of the major effects of stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol is they briefly suppress parts of our immune system, so the effect is so strong that adrenaline is actually used in emergencies to treat sufferers who are having a life-threatening allergic response to nuts or peanuts or something similar to that, which is basically the result of your immunological system going into overdrive against a foreign substance that the body sees as sort of evil or bad or wishes to dispose of.

So chronically raised levels of adrenaline and cortisol can pretty easily have a detrimental effect on one’s immunological reaction.

And if your immune system is constantly suppressed because you are constantly stressed out, that's going to add up, that's just going to create a breeding ground for rather less than ideal health conditions, and if our goal is real health and metamorphosis and longevity, we need to plug that up, we need to nip that in the bud as quickly as practical.

Because that’s a huge leak of energy, that’s a huge waste of energy that may be used for other things, on top of that, it's a, it makes us at the mercy of getting illnesses, to getting colds, to getting these moderate small things which then impede us and actually hinder us from living our lives and expressing ourselves in the way that we wish to.

So a long story down in size, persistent stress and prolonged inability to actually handle stress is just consistently chipping away at our foundation and undermining our overall homeostasis disequilibrium.
