Modern Stressors

Mark and Kara discuss the impact of modern stressors on our bodies, including the release of cortisol and its effect on metabolic health. They explore how our nervous system response hasn't adapted to emotional stressors and the mismatch between our physiology and the modern environment. They also touch on the role of unlimited access to hyper palatable food and sedentary lifestyles. Ultimately, they emphasize the importance of individual control in managing these factors.
