A quick word from my sponsor FiterixTM
● Major effect on the faulty immune system reducing the pro-inflammatory markers of
anti-TNF factor, C Reactive Protein and IL-6.
● Increases antioxidants and reduces the oxidative stress from Krebb’s Cycle in each
mitochondria as measured by reduction in 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG)
● Prolongs the life of cells by stimulating Temelorase and lengthening the telomeres
at the end of each Chromosome hence prolonging cell life.
● Reduces fibrinogen, blood pressure, and HDL/LDL ratio and can reduce the
atheroma in each coronary artery
● Stimulation of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Increases repair of neurons in the
brain and promotes neurogeneration and increases grey and white matter enlarging
the Hippocampus

Loneliness and Stress
● The experience of loneliness is stressful.
● Chronic stress, via its effects on the endocrine and immune
systems, enhances risk of long term conditions, (similar risk as
smoking 20 cigs a day for CVD)
● Lonelier people experience more sleep disturbances and engage
in less physical activity than less lonely people with increased
pain, depression, fatigue and poor health.

Nature and Stress
The contribution of green space creates a
● “sense of place belonging”,
● a reduced sense of social isolation and
● offering opportunities to manage stress.
A study of allotment gardening using salivary cortisol as a
measure of stress, found that gardening led to greater
stress reduction than a restful indoor task (e.g., reading)

Inactivity and chronic stress
● Chronic psychosocial stress, increases the risk of
physical inactivity and contributes to the epidemic
of disease.

Summary
● We live in a stressful environment
● Isolation disconnection to nature and lack of purpose create
chronic stress.
● Chronic stress causes poor health behaviour and leads to
Chronic Inflammation (CI)
● CI is the “cause of causes” of most long term conditions
● Health, diet, activity should be means to the end which is
Happiness
● Increasing SP should move to a social movement through
digital platforms and Insight

Notas do Editor We know from schemes were we have returned we get up to 80% new participants and of those who take part again there has been a significant increase in activity levels from baseline registration. These are some of the most challenging areas in the UK.
