Summary
Stress can quietly drive weight gain by reshaping both biology and behavior, according to the article. When stress becomes chronic, the body releases higher levels of cortisol, which can increase appetite and intensify cravings for high-fat, high-sugar comfort foods. It can also disrupt sleep, reduce energy, and lower motivation for physical activity, making weight control harder. Over time, these combined effects encourage gradual fat gain, especially around the abdomen. The article also highlights a feedback loop: weight gain can further increase stress. To break the cycle, it recommends regular exercise, balanced nutrition, better sleep, mindfulness practices, and stress-reduction habits like relaxation techniques.
