Can you explain in detail the relation between stress and gain or lose of weight?
Does stress affect the metabolism of a person?
Yes, stress can have an impact on a person's metabolism. When a person is stressed, their body releases stress hormones like cortisol which can cause an increase in blood sugar levels. This can lead to the storage of fat and a decrease in metabolism. Additionally, stress can lead to overeating, which can cause weight gain and can also interfere with the normal functioning of the body's metabolism.
