Stress, Mild Anxiety and Depression

Stress , mild depression and anxiety are more than just emotional challenges; they can significantly impact physical health. Chronic stress triggers hormonal imbalances, particularly involving cortisol, which can contribute to the development of metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and even increase the risk of cancer through inflammation and immune suppression. Prolonged stress also worsens sleep, digestion, and mental clarity, further aggravating health conditions. Naturopathic medicine offers a holistic approach to managing stress by addressing its root causes.
