People talk a lot about eating well as a key part of being healthy. But research has shown that stress not only causes people to eat unhealthily but also can cancel out the benefits of eating a healthier diet because of changes to metabolism.

So stress really matters, says Jan Kiecolt-Glaser, lead study author (pictured). Clinical trials showed that stress affects our biological response to a meal containing healthy fats, with an increased inflammatory response in a stressed state, according to her research from the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction is proven to lower stress levels. Have a look at my website below to find out about the courses I teach
