1) Stress is the body's response to challenges that prepares it for "fight or flight". Acute, short-term stress is adaptive but chronic stress takes a toll.
2) Chronic stress activates the hormone cortisol which initially helps the body resist stressors but over time leads to issues like high blood pressure, reduced immunity, memory problems and weight gain.
3) The body can recover from stress if the stressor is removed but prolonged stress without recovery can damage health and even lead to death from conditions like heart attack. Maintaining social connections, sleep, nutrition and exercise can help mitigate the effects of stress.ASEA: "Natural Healing in a Bottle?"

This in-depth PowerPoint presentation provides a comprehensive and essential guide to the human urinary system, specifically tailored for nursing students. Designed to simplify complex concepts and enhance learning, this PPT covers all critical aspects of urinary anatomy and physiology.
Key topics meticulously explored include:
Gross and Microscopic Anatomy of the Urinary System: Detailed examination of the kidneys (cortex, medulla, nephrons, renal pyramids, calyces, renal pelvis), ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra. High-quality anatomical diagrams and histological images are integrated to facilitate visual learning.
Physiology of Urine Formation: A step-by-step breakdown of glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption (proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubule, collecting duct), and tubular secretion. Emphasis is placed on the roles of various hormones (ADH, aldosterone, ANP, parathyroid hormone) and their impact on fluid and electrolyte balance. Understanding the juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) and its role in blood pressure regulation is also a key focus.
Regulation of Fluid and Electrolyte Balance: Exploration of the body's mechanisms for maintaining homeostasis, including the roles of the kidneys in regulating water balance, sodium, potassium, calcium, phosphate, and acid-base balance (bicarbonate buffer system).

Stress and sugar
- 2. ALL STRESSED OUT Threat of war,To many Deadlines, Debt, Bitter Divorce, Death of a Loved one? These stressors are only Part of the problem. BiologicalTraumas:Punishing Diets, Brutal workouts, silent infections, inherited deficiencies Stress a Bad thing? :Yes and No We need it to keep us alert, add spice to our lives. But,Chronic Stress= Opposite effect Stress begins in the ADRENAL GLANDS = without them life would be unbearable Adrenal Glands:Produce 30 to 40 different hormones During Stress, the adrenals release two hormones:Adrenaline and Cortisol
- 3. ADRENALINE + CORTISOL Adrenaline: Alerts you of danger, prepares you for *fight or flight* Following Cortisol release Cortisol balances the effects of adrenaline and provides you with Strength and Stamina! Cortisol: "Can do, Bring it On Hormone" Continual Release:Adrenaline and Cortisol pump to high = Chronically Wired + Strained What is the cause? :Anger, upsets, injuries, or fear? NOPE Main Causes: High Sugar Diets, Severe- Chronic Infections, Caffeine, Drugs, Environmental Chemicals. Constant Exposure can lead to: Heart disease, Osteoporosis, obesity, dampened immune function,Alzheimer's Disease
- 5. FOOD Food: Need it to survive and be healthy When you are stressed ( Adrenals Fatigued): Food choices are at its most importance for survival and health "Garbage in = Garbage out" = Stress Adrenals Stress Response = Revved up Metabolism = Nutrients Burned up by Body. "We cannot over emphasize the importance of a proper diet" - Dr John Tintera, New York State Journal of Medicine
- 6. BLOOD SUGAR ADDICTIONS (AREYOU ADDICTED TO SWEETS, STARTCHES, FATS, DRUGS OR STIMULANTS?) Hard Drugs: Sodas, chocolates, ice cream, potato chips, bread, fries, pasta, caffeine and cigarettes. You do not have Weak Will power = You are Physically Addicted! Breathe a Sigh of Relief: Help is around the Corner!
- 7. WHAT IF I AM ONLY STRESSED,AND NOT ADDICTEDTO STIMULANTS? DOES IT MATTER =YES IT DOES - ALLTHREE RECEPTORSARE CONNECTED. Blood Sugar Rises Cortisol Rises Adrenaline Rises
- 8. HOW STRESS MAKES US FAT: CORTISOL, DIABETES, AND OBESITY Insulin *Storage Hormone*: - Regulates Blood Sugar Levels, Removes fat stored in Fat cells, Removes sugar stored in the liver and muscle cells (glycogen), and directs amino acids toward building the muscles. Insulin during Stress Response = Complete Opposite Reaction then the one above :( 1st sign:Via Cortisol , the body screams ( No more energy storage!) Fat cells dump more fat into the system,liver cells crank out more glucose, and muscle cells allow their protein to be broken down to supply amino acids Infrequently Occurring:All is fine, Natural Body response to acute stress Frequently Occurring:Uhm,PROBLEM! - Leading into Insulin resistance = Diabetes
- 9. STRESS MAKES YOU FAT Excessive secretion of stress hormone, Cortisol Reduced secretion of anabolic hormones: DHEA,testosterone, Growth Hormone Stored fat, lose muscle,slow metabolic rate, increased appetite.
- 10. STRESS MANAGEMENT AND AVOIDANCE Whenever possible, Leave the cell phone behind Read Trash :D Take daily mini-vacations Take a full day off each week Recreate to re-create Get a Massage Take a Bath Imagine Creative solutions Take a long weekend Take a yoga class Pray Get a Pet Crank up the tunes Get some SLEEP!
