Answer 1

The best answer to the question: Which statement regarding health consequences is correct? Would be, D: All of the above.

Step-by-step explanation:

Stress nowadays has truly become a problem, especially because the type of stress that people are facing today is not of a physical type necessarily. In fact, it has been shown that in todays world, there is higher incidence of psychological and emotional stress, than physical.

Stress, under certain circumstances, and in normal levels, is actually a way for our bodies to maintain themselves active and ready; thus, human beings will always face at least a small amount of stressors (events, situations, people, elements, objects that cause stress), and will respond to these with stress reactions. But what is being see today, is not any kind of normal. In fact, it has been shown that a lot of health conditions for which people are being seen by healthcare providers are being derived from stress, more than any other illness, or disease. What is worse is that today a lot of the conditions that people are experiencing (depression, diabetes, obesity) are derived from mishandled levels of stress. This is why the best answer is D.
