Stress has emotional and physical consequences. Most of us are familiar with feeling some degree of anxiety when we face a stressful situation. However, the physical effects of stress are not as well known.
As we need to rise to meet a challenge, a little stress in life can be inspiring, but if life or a life event exceeds our capacity to cope, it can cause emotional and physical problems.
Stress prompts the body to release cortisol, the primary hormone of tension in the body. Increased blood cortisol levels change how our body’s immune system reacts to infections. Long-term and chronic stress leads to persistently elevated cortisol levels. The presence of cortisol in the bloodstream for a prolonged period reduces the effectiveness of the immune system by reducing the white blood cell count.
These effects result in chronic infections, chronic autoimmune inflammatory diseases, cancers, and other physiological disorders.
As the pandemic continues, many individuals have encountered more stress than usual. Nearly 8 in 10 adults suggest a significant cause of stress in their lives is the coronavirus pandemic.
Why does bad news often precede illnesses, coughs, and common colds?
Bad news causes us to feel stressed, which in turn weakens the immune system. So, we are even more vulnerable to germs we are exposed to at that moment and we often become sick.
Health conditions due to long-term exposure to stress
The National Institutes of Health says that continued stress on your body from everyday triggers is often the most difficult to identify but could lead to serious health issues such as:
● Heart disease
● Diabetes
● High Blood Pressure
● Cancer.
Studies also uncovered many other stress-related health concerns, such as the risk of obesity, Alzheimer’s disease, stomach disorders, and asthma, which tends to worsen or increase due to stress.
What Can You Do?
For a long and healthy life, it’s vital to focus on supporting your immune system on an ongoing basis. One of the best ways to do this is with natural, powerful immune system boosters contained in camel milk.
In the serum of camel milk, a completely new class of immunoglobulin has been discovered, which is fundamentally different from all other previously known antibody classes. Cameloid Immunoglobulins (only found in camels, llamas, alpacas, vicunas, and guanacos) are used by the immune system for easy and quick targeting of foreign substances. This is one of the ways camel milk strengthens and supports the gastrointestinal immune system.

Whether you agree with the wearing of masks or not, you are often required to wear them to work for 8 hours, or when you visit a store.
Without the controversy there is another situation, many people develop skin trouble from wearing a mask (especially those prone to acne & skin problems)
There is a solution to the skin inflammation.Here is an article regarding this: Natural Skin Repair Solution for Maskne
Bacteria Infections – This is part of the problem, no doubt, but there is a situation (and more controversy) regarding bacterial infection from breathing in a mask.
We will find out more information on this, but meanwhile, please don’t wear a mask more than one day before changing to a new mask which has just been washed.
One of the scary thoughts is geting a bacterial infection in your lungs and then being exposed to the flu with already weakened lungs from a bacterial infection. So if you wear a mask, keep it clean and bacteria free.

There is a lot of talk this year about how bad the flu is, they even report on the news of the deaths. The actual numbers vary greatly depending on you are talking to? And which “news” station you listen to. But getting the flu is never pleasant. Of course, they are also talking about getting a flu shot? Does that work?
I’ve heard from many people how they got the flu shot and still got the flu, but then the answer has been, it would have been worse if they didn’t get the flu shot. I’m skeptical. I know one person who rarely gets sick much less gets a flu, but her doctor talked her into getting one this year. Yes, she got sick.
Whatever you think about this, you should some information to help with the flu if you do get it (or even if you get a cold)
Here is our article on Flu
And, of course, the right thing to do is build a healthy immune system
It is important to support the immune system. There is plenty being said about Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Zinc and other things (like sleep and staying away from sugar) to build a healthy immune system.
But for anyone with a degenerative condition or chronic illness, immune system support it vital. For instance, it has been found that most people with metabolic disorders and Metabolic Syndrome have a weakened immune system and this leads to more health complications.
You can get the immune system protection you need by using a potent formulation of beta-glucans
What is Beta-Glucans?
Beta-glucans is a scientifically proven biological response modifier (BRM) (BRM defined as “Substances that stimulate the body’s response to infection and disease”). These naturally help normalize this immune response.
Beta-glucans boosts the immune system in people whose body defenses have been weakened by health conditions.
Note: Beta glucans increases the immune system response. By increasing the immune system beta glucans might decrease the effectiveness of medications that decrease the immune system. Check with your doctor about any medications you are on that decrease the immune system response before taking beta-glucans.
There have been no reported side effects from taking beta-glucans by mouth.

If you are like most people with a problem skin condition, you’ve spent countless hours researching solutions. You’ve probably tried many different products with the hope of finding something that would improve your skin. Any non-optimum skin condition can cause embarrassment and affect self-esteem and quality of life.
What most people don’t know about the underlying cause of skin problems
Inflammation is at the core of most health issues. Unresolved, chronic inflammation is a feature of a wide range of chronic health conditions, including skin conditions.
Acute inflammation is a necessary, protective response of the body tissues to adverse stimuli, like irritants, or damaged cells due to injury. Acute inflammation lessens when the stimulus is removed. In contrast, chronic inflammation is an ongoing response to stimuli that doesn’t end and the longer it continues the more it causes cellular degeneration and damage.
In fact, chronic inflammation is recognized as one of the four primary factors that affect health and cause degeneration in the body.
What effect does chronic inflammation have on the body?
Chronic inflammation can affect the following:
Dr. Robert Crea stated, “Tackling inflammation will be at the core of medicine for the next 20 years. Cellular inflammation, and trying to control it, is going to be at the core of medicine over the next 20 years and people want to manage it with natural compounds.”
What can you do about chronic inflammation?
The good news is you can do something about chronic inflammation. Eating more plant-based whole foods will help. In addition, taking a supplement designed to have a powerful, positive impact on chronic inflammation will provide extra anti-inflammatory support.
Dr. Robert Weiss says, “Plant-based whole foods are the most powerful disease modifying tools available to practitioners – more powerful than any drugs or surgeries.”
Treating skin conditions from the inside
If you have an unresolving skin issue it is very likely you have chronic inflammation in your body.
Most people try to tackle their skin condition with a topical solution, but creams, gels or lotions don’t always deliver the desired result.
Skin conditions need to be addressed from inside the body as that’s where the chronic inflammation is happening.
