When we experience stress, our bodies undergo hormone shifts that can affect various systems in the body. For example, the release of cortisol and epinephrine can increase heart rate and activate muscles in order to help us cope with the stressor. However, chronic stress can have negative effects on the body, such as weakening the immune system and increasing the risk of cancer.
Fortunately, there are ways to strengthen the immune system and cope with stress. Good nutrition, exercise, and getting enough sleep can all contribute to a healthier immune system. Additionally, psychological and emotional support can be beneficial in helping the body manage stress.
Cancer patients can benefit from a holistic approach to treatment that addresses the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of the disease. Catherine’s cancer education series covers eight modules on topics related to cancer and stress, providing a comprehensive overview of the various aspects of cancer treatment and support.
