Key Conclusions

1. Stress is a state of ‘threat’ which can either be acute or chronic

2. Low levels of stress (eustress) can have positive effects on motivation, excitement and performance.

3. High levels of stress (distress) can have negative effects on the body, and that’s when management techniques can be useful

4. When cortisol release is triggered, you feel a sense of alertness as the body diverts energy away from the immune and digestive systems

5. Aerobic exercise is important to build into your daily routine for calming effects on your body

6. Consume a variety of food groups, vitamins and minerals and reduce processed foods to reduce inflammation and boost our overall immune system
