Stress is a natural response to events that influence the emotions and actions of an individual. Stress
can be a positive or negative experience that can ultimately impact the health. Some amount of
stress is essential on a daily basis in order to complete a task and influence theositiv body in a pe
way. Stress becomes a negative force when it goes beyond the threshold limit and overwhelms an
individual and consequently impacts health.
Stress is associated with external factors such as work, relationship, physical environment and
internal factors such as nutritional status, sleep, emotional health and fitness of a person. Among
these factors nutritional status and emotional health of an individual have a major influence in stress
management.
Nutition and stress
Optimal nutritional status aids in better stress management. The macronutrients- carbohydrates, fats,
protein and micronutrients - vitamins and minerals play a crucial role in maintaining body's energy
levels, cognitive performance and emotional strength during periods of stress. Stress typically
lowers the functional ability of the immune system and also increases the demand for certain
nutrients in the body.
Many studies have underscored the role of micronutrients in reducing stress and anxiety in
individuals. Micronutrients are believed to work in tandem to effectively combat stress and reduce
the negative impact of stress in the body. One study revealed that individuals supplemented with
micronutrients were able to manage stress better and showed resilience to ongoing stress when
compared to the group that was not consuming micronutrients(1).The largest one lies in the
intenstine which is termed as lactic acid bacteria and is best probiotic for digestive system.
Low magnesium and stress
Chronic stress causes severe depletion of magnesium in the body and leads to magnesium
deficiency in the body. During periods of stress magnesium is released from the cells into the blood
in order to combat the rising blood pressure and is excreted from the body as urine. Thus chronic
stress is associated with low magnesium levels in the body which severely impacts the way our
body responds to stress. This condition can be complicated by habits such as alcoholism, poor diet,
and lack of rest. In an animal study that attempted to find the link between low magnesium levels
and stress response in mice demonstrated that magnesium deficiency lead to enhanced depression
like conditions, increased anxiety and poor stress response among the mice(2).
