News - "Too much bad news increases stress levels"
- Health Experts say.

Experts in psychology say that listening to too much bad news can cause stress levels to increase.

Q: Does it mean we shouldn't pay attention to bad news at all?

A: No, it's quite healthy to get a few negative feedbacks now and then,

but

Too much Bad news (at elevated levels), increases the level of adrenaline released by the adrenal glands, which simultaneously increases cortisol secretion. This happens automatically within your body, even if you don't openly show signs of fear and worry. It's very similar to the effects of consuming too much dark coffee (without milk).
Paying attention to a lot of bad news can also subconsciously trigger post traumatic stress disorder, panic attacks and reaction formation complexes.

It pays to listen to some good news and progress reports often.

Journalists, news and media agencies kindly take note.

Talking about Good News, I'll recommend the Gospel for you.
It's the good news of God's love for you.
He promises you good health, wealth, Joy, happiness and eternal life.

Accept Jesus today and be free from the bondage of chronic stress.

Bible Verses that talk about stress relief:
Jeremiah 29:11, Matthew 11:28,
John 16:33, Isaiah 40:31, Phillipians 4:6

Yours Sincerely;
Apostle Constance C. Friday

Very correct.
I don't listen to or read all news again. I just read headlines and skip to good cheering news. angry
