Stress takes a toll, not just on our minds, but on our bodies too. Ever noticed how your jeans feel a little tighter after a stressful week? Or how you seem to shed more hair than usual when deadlines loom? These are your body’s way of screaming, “Hey, I’m stressed!” Cortisol, the stress hormone, is the culprit behind these physical changes. It can lead to weight gain, especially around the abdomen, and disrupt the hair growth cycle, causing hair loss. So, the next time you notice these signals, listen to your body! It’s telling you to take a step back and manage your stress.
