Explain how learning to manage excessive or prolonged stress can help prevent obesity?
Stress causes the release of cortisol. Cortisol can cause increased hunger which leads to consumption of excess calories. Cortisol also activated fat- storing enzymes which cause enlargement of the fat cells. The abdominal fat cells are predominatly affected since those cells have the most cortisol receptors. The result is central (abdominal) obesity. If a person learns to effectively manage stress, they will have less release of cortisol. This will prevent stress-related consumption of excess calories and storage of excess fat.
