Hello,

What is general adaptation syndrome? GAS is the three-stage process that describes the physiological changes the body goes through when under stress. Hans Selye, a medical doctor and researcher, came up with the theory of GAS. ... Selye identified these stages as alarm, resistance, and exhaustion.

Hope this helps!!

Hans Selye described three predictable stages the body uses to respond to stressors, called general adaptation syndrome (GAS). ... In the second stage, known as the resistance stage, the body attempts to resist or adapt to the stressor. The last stage is known as the exhaustion stage because energy is depleted.
