Cracking the Stress Code

People need to understand the influence stress can have on their DNA. Colds, viruses and lowered resistance can all occur when the body has high cortisol levels. The immune system may not work at its best, which is why some people become ill when they go on holiday and start to relax. Dr Damian Kristof discusses his approach to cracking the stress code with honesty and humour.

The episode explains that the immune system does its work best when cortisol levels are not elevated. Stress can also build over time.
