Why Zebras don’t get ulcers
Robert M. Sapolsky
When we worry or experience stress, our body turns on the same physiological responses that an animal does, but we do not resolve conflict in the same way, through fighting or fleeing. Over time, this activation of a stress response makes us literally sick.
Combining cutting-edge research with a healthy dose of good humor and practical advice, Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers explains how prolonged stress causes or intensifies a range of physical and mental afflictions, including depression, ulcers, colitis, heart disease, and more. It also provides essential guidance to controlling our stress responses.
