Abstract

Objective: Stress can be defined as the over all those reactions in our body, which can disturb the normal functioning and physiological equilibrium of body system. The objective of this review is to compile literature related to stress origin and the related research work to reduce stress and stress induced disorders. Materials and methods: The all reported work related to this topic was collected from various source e.g. library, online site pubmed, sciencedirect and books. The exhaustive literature was studied and makes critical analysis to summarize the findings. Results: Through novel techniques, it is also possible to measure the response of the primary stress systems in a convenient, non-invasive manner. Thus, allowing the research to progress rapidly in the area of stress which is important to improve quality of life. By gaining a thorough understanding of the systems governing stress response, the intervention techniques can be developed to target the over-activation of these systems, decrease stress, and improve health. Conclusion: The recent findings concerning stress induced disorders are a solid starting point for much needed future research.
