| "Stereotypical images of highly-stressed and heart attack-prone executives notwithstanding, researchers have found that it is those at the bottom of the corporate ladder who in fact suffer the highest incidence of work stress and heart disease.
In 1978, Professor Marmot published the first of many papers reporting on the Whitehall studies, possibly the largest long-term investigations of health within an organization ever conducted." - Anthony Colpo, The Great Cholesterol Con: Why Everything You've been Told About Cholesterol, Diet and Heart Disease is Wrong (Get the book.) "When researchers present us with data showing an epidemiological relationship between cholesterol and heart disease in younger folks, what we may really be looking at is the destructive effect of work stress. For the last forty-plus years, medicine has been blaming cholesterol for crimes that were in all likelihood committed by chronic psychological stressors! Stress and Food: A Deadly Mix? One cardiovascular researcher who has distanced himself from the great unthinking mass of cholesterol-obsessed investigators is Dr. Malcolm Kendrick, from Cheshire in the UK." - Anthony Colpo, The Great Cholesterol Con: Why Everything You've been Told About Cholesterol, Diet and Heart Disease is Wrong (Get the book.) |
 "Sudden or severe emotional traumas, such as a death of a loved one, or unanticipated money or work stress, can initiate ICV problems. The body symptoms that result are often described as psychological, when, in fact, they are due to a very real physical cause, the irritated ICV. The original trigger may have been the emotional stress, but the ongoing symptoms are due a physical problem.
The trouble is that once an ICV problem appears, it can perpetuate itself because the inside rim around the valve remains raw and irritated until it is properly treated. Therefore it won't close on its own."- John K. Pollard, The Digestive Awareness Diet: You Are HOW You Eat (Get the book.) |
| "To top it off, they're subjected to chronic stress conditions like work stress, environmental stress (breathing polluted air, drinking polluted water), relationship stress, lack of sleep, lack of sunlight, and so on. This chronic stress actually accelerates the depletion of nutrients in the body, leaving people in a deeper state of nutritional deficiency.
Nearly all Americans operate on chronic nutritional deficiencies
So by the time you're done with all of that, the average American has only a fraction of the nutrition they actually need for optimum health." - Mike Adams, The Seven Laws of Nutrition (Get the book.) |
 "I see many patients who are experiencing considerable work stress, for example, long work hours, a boss who is overly demanding, or other problems. My experience is that it is the rare patient who experiences a long-term effect on his blood pressure. And here as well, the studies—many of which were performed by researchers who were convinced that job stress causes sustained blood pressure elevation and hypertension, and whose task of getting grants depended on providing evidence to support this view— failed to prove that this widely held belief is true."- John E.

 "Correcting Poor Diet Results in Better Sleep
INSOMNIA CAN ARISE from a combination of poor diet and work stress. Darren, 28, complained of tiredness and depression. The fatigue, he said, was due to the fact that he had been getting only 3 to 5 hours of sleep per night for the last five months. Darren was a chemical technician, and his sleep disturbance started when his hours at work shifted from a standard daytime schedule to the swing shift, from 4 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. His body still hadn't made the adjustment to the later schedule."- Herbert Ross, DC with Keri Brenner, L.Ac., Alternative Medicine Magazine's Definitive Guide to Sleep Disorders: 7 Smart Ways to Help You Get a Good Night's Rest (Get the book.) |
