In recent years, it has been very common to hear about stress; this has quickly become one of the most popular diseases of the 21st century.

We are currently living a very fast pace of life. Overloaded with problems, social challenges, and dependence on technology that have triggered a worldwide epidemic.

But what exactly is it and how can I fight it?

Stress is a natural reaction of our body to situations that require more attention. The stress generated by difficult circumstances in both professional and personal environments ends up detonating this condition. That in the long run, and if left untreated, may lead to physical, mental and emotional health consequences.

There are 3 types of stress and each of them has its own characteristics:

Acute is the most common one, it occurs in past or near future situations which require a momentary pressure from us. Episodic acute stress appears frequently in people who lead a hectic life and full of responsibilities they cannot cope with. Although it is episodic, if present, it is important to seek medical help. Finally, chronic stress causes distress in prolonged periods. It produces physical, mental and emotional exhaustion with a result that may turn out devastating. It is necessary to approach an expert.

For any of them, we recommend adopting the following good habits:

• Exercise for at least 30 minutes a day.
