Stress is something we all face, but can it really harm us at a cellular level? Popular doctor and cancer healer Tarang Krishna recently shared a video highlighting the serious impact of long-term stress on our body.
Sharing the clip, he wrote, “It’s not just in your head, chronic stress changes your cells. Over time, that pressure can turn deadly. Here’s what you need to know before you brush it off again.”
The video sheds light on how chronic stress isn’t just emotional. It can trigger real physical damage, including increasing the risk of cancer.
Chronic Stress And Its Hidden Dangers
The video (It’s not just in your head – chronic stress changes your cells) opens with a striking question: “Can stress cause cancer?” The doctor immediately answers, “Yes” and captures viewers’ attention by highlighting the seriousness of the topic.
Dr Krishna explains that chronic stress (long-term mental or emotional pressure) triggers the release of cortisol, a hormone central to the body’s “fight or flight” response. While cortisol is helpful in small bursts, constant high levels create inflammation, disrupt hormone balance, and weaken the immune system. A weakened immune system makes the body less able to fight harmful cells, paving the way for illnesses like cancer.
How Stress Becomes A Physical Threat
Chronic stress doesn’t just stay in the mind. It affects the body at the cellular level. According to Dr Krishna, constant irritation and hormonal imbalance from stress become breeding grounds for serious diseases. Over time, the body experiences measurable damage, turning emotional pressure into a physical trigger for cancer.
The main message is that stress isn’t harmless. Left unchecked, it can contribute to life-threatening conditions, including cancer. Dr Krishna urges viewers to manage stress proactively, whether through relaxation techniques, lifestyle changes or seeking professional help. Early action can prevent stress from quietly damaging the body over time.
