In this video, we’re going to talk about how stress affects your health. Chronic stress can literally destroy your immune system. 

Cortisol is activated by stress. 

Lymphoid tissue is an area where you have a lot of immune reactions to keep pathogens away from different organs. High cortisol will divert amino acids from the lymphoid tissue, basically shrinking this tissue. It makes your immune system smaller. 

Antibodies are produced by the immune system, and they help develop immunity. They don’t necessarily kill pathogens, but they put a tag on them for other immune cells to kill them. If you have enough antibodies in your system, you are protected. But, with high cortisol, you can have a decrease in overall antibody production. 

You also have various barriers of immune defense. But, high cortisol can create a break down in your cellular barriers, which can raise your susceptibility to viral and bacterial infections.  

Keeping your immune system strong isn’t just about good nutrition; it’s also about keeping your stress as low as possible.
