Illness and Stress
The significance of stress is that it shuts down the immune system, which we know by now, is the body's main system for fighting cancer.
Dr.
Richard Shulze, Cure Zone and other sites, declares that stress is always a factor
in the cancer patients that he treats. Dr. Linus Pauling stated that stress uses
up the bodies vitamin C supply, which is needed for the immune system to operate.
When
we are "nice" at the expense of our health, we set ourselves up to develop
disease. Civilization has it's price. We cannot afford to allow situations to
continually gnaw at our insides in silence. "Every doctor is familiar with
the ""cancer personality"" .... "The nicest person in
the world" say his friends and relatives, "This should not have happened
to him" (Dr. Kennedy). |
Remember, it is the immune system that fights cancer and stress is devastating to our immune system. This may be the most difficult area of managing our lives in order to get well. We can be loyal to our relationships at the expense of our health. I have seen it over and over again. Folks just can't convince themselves that certain drastic changes may be in order for them to manage their recovery well.

STRESS
is virtually always a factor in developing cancer and treating stress is an important
factor in eradicating this disease. | STRESS,Fear,
anxiety, anger, denial, fatigue, shock from visible side effects of treatment
-- they're all common reactions to diagnosis and treatment. |
Stress will slow wound healing
So you're going to tell me stress has an effect on wound healing?

Evidence
There
is clear evidence that stress will slow wound healing in healthy students. The
study by Phillip Marucha, in 1998 revealed that examination stress in dental students
delayed wound healing times by 40% compared to healing during the summer vacation.
This study also demonstrated a reduction in levels of Interleukin-1 (IL-1) of
2/3 at the same time compared to unstressed levels.
Interleukin-1 is an important cytokine that plays several major roles in wound healing, including mediation of the keratinocyte response and wound contraction.
A second study by Ronald Glaser, using healthy women volunteers. The volunteers were assessed for stress using questionnaires prior to receiving minor skin damage. Test conducted at 5 hrs & 24 hrs post injury revealed reductions in levels 2 cytokines, IL-1 & IL-8 at the wound sites and an increase in levels of cortisol in the saliva in women with higher stress scores.
Cortisol suppresses the immune response and is important in curtailing wound healing either by reducing the population of neutrophils at the wound site or by controlling the concentration of cytokines.
The investigators found it worth noting that none of the patients in the trial were experiencing abnormal levels of stress, certainly less than would be expected in patients anticipating surgery.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- A new study of dental students found that stress can lengthen the time wounds take to heal by as much as 40 percent and reduce by two-thirds the production of one cytokine -- interleukin-1 -- that is integral for the healing process.
The study, published in the current issue of the journal Psychosomatic Medicine, is the latest advance in nearly two decades of research here into the effects even common stress has on the human immune system.
The
study also showed that this stress-induced slow-down of the healing process seems
to occur in the first few days after injury. Researchers believe this suggests
that additional supportive therapies applied soon after injuries might counteract
the slowing effects caused by stress.

Stress
slows the ability of the body to repair wounds by changing the response of the
immune system to injury, scientists have found.
US researchers set out to
test the chemicals produced when 36 female volunteers were given minor blisters.
Doctors had also noticed that patients helped to relax before an operation
recovered more quickly, often being kept in hospital one or two fewer days.

"Medical
science searches high and low for the causes of cancer, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid
arthritis, chronic fatigue syndrome, and a host of other conditions. Yet it often
ignores one of the most pervasive factors leading to illness: the hidden stresses
embedded in our daily lives. In his important book, Dr. Gabor Maté combines
a passionate examination of his patients life histories with lucid explanations
of the science behind mind-body unity. He makes a compelling argument for the
importance of understanding stress both in the causation of disease and in the
restoration of health."

of the Canadian Institute of Stress/ Hans Selye Foundation

Becoming Aware of Stress in Your Life
Very
often a primary cause of many health problems relates to stress. Dr. Hans Selye,
a Hungarian doctor, documented the many negative effects of stress on the human
body. Excess stress is often the pathway to disease and can come from many sources
such as toxicity, trauma, allergies, harmful habits, mental states, pathogens,
etc. As stress continues disease often progresses. Therefore it is of outmost
importance to identify and stop stresses early to avoid diseases. Remember the
saying, "An ounce of prevention is worth ..."
