The Stress-Illness Connection (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781923476578)

What if many modern illnesses could be traced back to a single, often overlooked cause?

In The Stress-Illness Connection, registered nurse and anatomy educator Amy Lewis explores how everyday stresses can quietly reshape our biology and trigger disease. Drawing on decades of medical and scientific research, Lewis reveals the powerful links between the brain, body, and emotions, showing how chronic stress alters hormones, suppresses immunity, and fuels inflammation that underlies conditions like heart disease, diabetes, anxiety, and even cancer.

So whether you're a health professional, student, or anyone seeking to understand the hidden drivers of modern illness, The Stress-Illness Connection offers a roadmap to prevention and assist healing through knowledge, awareness, and self-care.
