This group education visit discusses the negative effects of chronic stress and its connection to major chronic diseases. We discuss the connection between healthy vs. unhealthy stress perception, stages of general adaptation, and optimal hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis function. With these tools, we can better understand the power of recommendations emphasizing glycemic regulation, sleep hygiene, exercise, and hormone testing.
