How does stress affect the body's nutritional status?
1984
Morgan, Brian L.G.
The stress response readies the body to effectively deal with danger. All 3 energy fuels: carbohydrate, fat, and protein, are drawn upon in increased amounts during stress. In addition, the bones lose some of their stored calcium. Normally, the appetite is suppressed during severe stress and the blood supply to the digestive track is redirected to the muscles. Even if food is eaten, it may not be digested and/or absorbed. Some people react to stress by eating more and too much food. This may be a nervous system response with a familiar activity to allay other, more serious responses. Stress management techniques can aid the body's response to a stressful event and spare the stored nutrients. (kbc)
