"Acute physical and mental stress resulted in an increase in fatty acids,
norepinephrine, and hemodynamic changes in normal individuals:

A blind study was tested to see if mental and physical stress could raise stressor hormones, blood pressure, and fat in the human body. With multiple blind study patients that were in good health conditions. The results show mental and physical stress did increase fatty acids, norepinephrine, and diastolic blood pressure but did not increase insulin, glucose, and metabolic rate.

​

This was done through bloodwork before and after physical and mental
stressors taken individually. In conclusion, this study while limited in its overall group size, this study shows that there is a direct association between mental and physical stressors to an increase in fatty acids, increased norepinephrine levels, and vascular resistance. There is a correlation to dealing with acute mental stressors that have a negative effect on the body.

 

This study shows that when the body is under negative effects of stress for too long your body cannot maintain a healthy equilibrium. This can and will negatively impact your health leading to other health conditions like high blood pressure, possible anxiety disorders, as well as a possible future heart disease due to higher stressor hormones, blood pressure, and fat in the human body.
