Humans should not try to avoid stress any more than they would shun food, love or exercise. Said Dr. Hans Selye, the first physician to document the effects of stress on the body.

Sustained stress is not good for you, says Richard Morimoto, a researcher at Northwestern University in Illinois studying the effects of stress on longevity , It s the occasional burst of stress or brief exposure to stress that could be protective.
