The document discusses the negative health impacts of modern lifestyles and stress. It states that over 90% of diseases are related to stress, which causes poor lifestyle habits like poor diet, lack of exercise, and irregular sleep. Stress is identified as the primary cause of these symptoms. Modern lifestyles contradict human evolution as people sit more, work longer hours with artificial light, eat highly processed foods, and drink energy drinks instead of water. This leads to health issues like hypertension, obesity, and disease. The solution is not pills but rather lifestyle changes like moving more, eating and sleeping better, and reducing stress.

trol (CDC) in the United States estimates that more than 90 percent of all diseas- es are related to stress. Can you believe it? Stress causes you to adopt damaging life- style habits. Do you suffer from a poor diet, a lack of exercise, irregular sleep patterns and a hyperactive mind? I would bet my house that the primary cause of these symptoms is stress. Plain and simple. On a daily basis, we live on borrowed energy. In an ef- fort to do more in less time, we over-caffeinate ourselves in the morning; we consume far too much chemically adulterated food that is too sweet and too salty; we substitute water for energy drinks that are, at the end of the day, good for noth- ing. The result? Headaches, fatigue, muscle cramps, and ultimately chronic diseases such as hypertension, obe- sity, diabetes, heart disease and even cancer. In the animal kingdom, the body switches off when the sun sets. But thats not what happens in todays world. Artificial light, pro- longed working hours, traf- fic and TV make the day much longer than it should be. The brain and body have changed so little in the last several thousand years.
