| Abstract: | Chronic stress can pack on the pounds, especially around the belly, where people least want it. And our modern-day lifestyle, with its ever-increasing pace and complexities, presents more and more opportunities to feel stressed. The chronic nature of today's stressors are especially bothersome and concerning when it comes to health and weight. In his book "The Noonday Demon: An Atlas of Depression," Andrew Solomon discusses how the more choices people have and the more complex those choices, the more uncertainty there is in people's lives - and the more "uneasiness'' or stress they live with. Today we have many more choices than our ancestors did. We get to decide whom we marry, where we live, what we buy, where we go, what we do. But all these choices, though we might want them, produce chronic stress. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
