Why emotional/physical stress leads to inflammatory skin diseases...

I'm starting to think that stress predisposes a person to hypersensitivity to foods and such. There are too many people who can eat shit and still be clear, and I don't think its purely genetic. Stress wreaks havoc to and distracts the immune system, possibly making us less able to deal with certain foods.

This study showed how you could induce hair growth inhibition in mice by providing them with stressors. We know that hairloss is very possibly related to acne...
Also, stress leads to the production of cytokines and inflammatory mediators....

SweetJade, if you see this, please tell me what you think.



this article was supplied by Dr. Lin, the crazy orgasm doctor who says acne is caused by excessive sex ( a stressor) for some people. A point which I agree completely with.

This is something that ive been suspecting lately as well, ive got a couple of posts in this section if you are looking for more info. The question ive been asking myself was whether or not day to day negative or positive emotions can interrupt biological process over the long term, and ive found some good evidence that this is possible.

ive heard that any level of stress can depress the immune system which is interesting.

im not sure about the sex part, i could be wrong but i think we are built to have sex every day for years and years, and its very unlikely that it is unhealthy. but thats just my current standing on the issue.
