Stress. It’s a normal part of human life that increases and de-creases depending on what’s going on in our personal, profes-sional, or academic lives at specific times. Although at some point each of us will feel stressed about something, some people are affected more by stress than others. If left unchecked, stress can sometimes turn into further problems, such as anxiety or depres-sion. Because of this, understanding how to prevent, manage and control your stress with your diet and your lifestyle is absolutely important. Since stress can have such a huge effect on your life if left to worsen, understanding how what you put into your body can help your mental state is absolutely vital to living a life that is calm, relaxing and stress-free.
Often, when it comes to dealing with and reducing stress, we think about removing our ‘stressors’ from our lives. For example, if a person is increasingly feeling stressed and anxious in the work-place, they may look to change departments, companies, or even careers. Another example would be a couple who no longer get on choosing to break up or divorce to get rid of the source of their stress. However, although steering clear of situations or people who stress you out can definitely help, one of the main things which affect stress is your diet and lifestyle.
And, since it may not always be possible to remove yourself from stressful situations immediately, making the right dietary and life-style changes is important to help you deal with and manage stress by staying in control.

Feeling stressed out is something that we all go through at some point, but nobody particularly enjoys it. Although a small amount of stress can actually be good when it comes to motivating some-body to work hard to reach their goals – whether that be personally, professionally, or academically – having too much stress can actually have the opposite effect and can cause you to feel like you are ‘shutting down’. Common side effects of high-stress levels include lack of focus, trouble concentrating, frequently forgetting things, or even feeling like your mind has gone completely blank. All of these can contribute to other things in your life going wrong, which in turn can lead to stress which is more severe or in some cases, anxiety.
Since trying to ignore your stress won’t make it go away, it’s im-portant to know exactly what to do in order to help your stress levels remain manageable and easy to control. One of the best ways to take control of the amount of stress which you are feeling is to take control of your diet, exercise and lifestyle habits. When your diet and lifestyle are working together in your favor to combat and fight stress, you will find that you are better able to control any feelings of worry or anxiety that come up. Remember that what you put into your body isn’t just important for your physical health, but also for your mental health, too!
